Exodus 33:14 My Presence Shall Go with Thee

Exodus 33:14 (KJV)  And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. 

Moses sought the LORD to continue to lead His people, Israel. It was the golden calf incident when His people went awhoring.

Exodus 32:33-35 (KJV)  And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book. Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them. And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made. 

Moses took his tent and pitched it outside Israel for the pollution that took place.

Exodus 33:7 (KJV)  And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp. 

Prayer was made for God’s forgiveness – Exodus 33:12-13 (KJV)  And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight. Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.

The LORD assured him of His presence with them and that they may rest in His leading and care. Amen.
