The "Ark" of Today

King David had a passion to retrieve the Ark of the Covenant which represented the very presence and power of God. On they way back King David took the ark to a man named Obed-Edom. The Ark of the Covenant for us today is the Holy Ghost which is the presence and power of the living God Jesus Christ. Let's look at what happen to Obed-Edom when the ark was at his house. The ark changed Obed-Edom home life. His house and all that was in it was blessed. It changed his priorities. When King David came back for the Ark Obed-Edom could not part from it. He became whatever the ark needed. He was a singer, doorkeeper, minister before the ark and gatekeeper. Also, since Obed-Edom was willing to do whatever and be faithful the bible says he had 62 descendants follow his footsteps.

The power and presence of God resides in our hearts today through the Holy Ghost. Just as Obed-Edom we can have our home lives change. Our house and all that is in it will be blessed. Our priorities will be changed if we allow the Holy Ghost lead us. We are the singers, doorkeepers, ministers, and gatekeepers of the POWER AND PRESENCE of the living God Jesus Christ. You might be the only one in your family, your job, and your community that is willing to become whatever the "ark" needs today. The bible says that the Holy Ghost will lead you into ALL truth.

Make a vow to be a Obed-Edom of today!!! And watch people follow!!!
