Exodus (Program #158) – The Incense—Prayers Ascending to God, Sweetness of Genuine Prayer

One of the most significant realizations that a human being can have is that the God of creation has come to visit mankind in the person of Jesus Christ.  This is the beginning of our salvation experience.  But it takes a further revelation to see that the traffic between God and man is not limited to this one-way traffic.  The divine traffic is our topic on today’s life study of the Bible.

Psalms (Program #40) -The Preciousness of Zion and Jerusalem in the Experiences and Praises of the Saints (2)

They are 15 Psalms that are referred to as the Psalms of the Ascent, from 120 to 134. These Psalms typified the ascending or raising up of God’s people, from a low suffering place to a place in the high peaks. These high places refer to as Zion in the scripture and it represents many things. Its’ from Zion that God first blesses His people and from Zion He deals with those who persecute and hate His people, is also from Zion that He bring His people into the light to realize their own fallen sinful condition so that they may repent and to receive His forgiveness. Making them humble where they had formally being proud and haughty. Once humbled God brings His people up to and into Zion where they can dwell in Him in oneness and where He can find His rest and His abode in them. This is Zion, this is the place to which we all must ascend for our ultimate destiny or destination in the Christian walk, is the heavenly Zion, the New Jerusalem where God and man will find their mutual habitation and full satisfaction.
