Psalm 132 is the praise of David in his going up to Zion concerning Jehovah’s habitation and rest in Zion. God desires Zion and He finds rest here, and David also desires God’s dwelling place! The place of God’s rest is Zion, the overcomers. There must be brothers and sisters in whose being Christ Himself […]
having a humbled heart and a quieted soul to become Mount Zion for God’s rest
In Psalm 131 we see the praise of a saint in his going up to Zion concerning his humbled heart and his quieted soul before Jehovah. In order for God to dwell in us and be at rest in us, we need to have a quieted soul and a humbled heart. He shepherds us continually […]
reaching the high peak of living in the reality of the Body of Christ by praying

In the last few verses of this psalm we see that Christ […]
the basis, motive, meaning, purpose, and result of our consecration to God
We can cooperate with Christ in His heavenly ministry today – in the day of His warfare – by having an absolute and thorough consecration to the Lord. Actually, “the fullness of one’s experience of life depends on the fullness of one’s experience of consecration” (W. Lee, Experience of Life). What is consecration? What is […]
