A Symbol Without Substance

You can carry the Ark and still lose the battle. Israel brought out the Ark hoping for victory, but the glory had already departed. God’s presence is not found in symbols—it’s found in surrendered hearts. Are you pursuing His presence or just carrying His image?

Ichabod: The Weight of a Departure

Phinehas’s wife wasn’t grieving only the death of loved ones—she mourned the loss of God's presence. What happens when we carry on with routine but God’s glory is no longer with us? Is there an area in your life where God’s presence has quietly stepped back? Don’t wait until it’s too late. Let your cry be Emmanuel—God with us, not Ichabod. His glory can return. But it starts with surrender.
