Exodus 33:14, And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.
Psalm 84:4-7,
[4] Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: They will be still praising thee. Selah. [5] Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; In whose heart are the ways of them. [6] Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; The rain also filleth the pools. [7] They go from strength to strength, Every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.
1 John 1:3, that which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
The good land, in its fullness, is not just a place for physical blessing, but a place of deep, abiding fellowship with God. In Exodus 33:14, God promised His presence would go with the Israelites, granting them rest. This rest was not just the absence of conflict but the presence of God Himself, dwelling in intimate fellowship with His people.
As believers, the good land represents the experience of God’s fellowship with us. In Christ, we have been brought into the richest fellowship, where our hearts are one with God. We enjoy this fellowship not only through prayer but also in the daily experiences of life.
Fellowship with God is the privilege of every believer who has entered into Christ as their reality.
