God dwells among His people in Zion, where His presence is cherished and His glory is revealed.
The presence of God among His people is a profound theme in both the Old and New Testaments. In Ezekiel 48:35, the city is named 'Jehovah Shema,' meaning 'The Lord is there,' signifying His intimate relationship with His people. God’s dwelling is not merely about physical location but about His active presence and communion with those who are His. This reveals the beauty of Zion, where believers gather in worship and hear the truths of the Gospel. The Lord's presence assures believers that they are never alone, as He manifests His love, grace, and peace in their lives, reinforcing their identity as His chosen people.
