Do you remember the days of the standalone GPS from Garmin, and other similar manufacturers? A paradigm shift happened and now most people use their smartphones for this purpose. Why? Because everything is real time. Traffic conditions. Points of interest. Pictures of each location etc. What is better than this? God's GPS.
Numbers 9:17, Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, after that the children of Israel would journey; and in the place where the cloud settled, there the children of Israel would pitch their tents.
All the people of Israel needed to follow was God's cloud by day and fire by night. They did that while having all the other activities for 40 years. This included the Passover meal from the first anniversary of leaving Egypt.
Numbers 9:5, And they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month, at twilight, in the Wilderness of Sinai; according to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did.
No one wanted to be left out. There was great eagerness to celebrate together. There was a death in one family and the people who touched the corpse were going to miss the Passover. But there is special mention of Moses seeking God's direction on this and God gave the clearance to allow them to participate.
God was consulted for everything. Get up and move, what direction, what to do, and how to do it. No stress! Father, help me to be in this zone with You always.
