Noteworthy that ‘High Plains Drifter’ Tim Shey, has added suitable scriptures to his re-posting Tony in Tucson’s dream Follow The Cloud, especially as I often cite John 3:8 as being my ‘lead’-verse – AND yet another personal confirmation on the Pentecost experience in his blog’s title’s scripture:
“The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.” (John 3:8)
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” (Romans 8:14)
“Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.” (2 Corinthians 3: 6)
Richard's Watch 
Numbers 9: 15-17: “And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle, namely, the tent of the testimony: and at even there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until the morning. So it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night. And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed: and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched their tents.”
The above scripture shows us the importance of obedience to the Lord. If we willingly stay in a dead church, our spirit is cut off from the Lord and we cannot hear from God and do His will. If our hearts are hungry for God and surrendered to Him, we go when He tells us to go, we stay where He tells us to stay.
There is great protection from the Lord when we are led by the Holy Ghost. A cloud by day, a fire by night.
Zechariah 2: 5: “For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.”

Yes Tim obedience is the essential prerequisite to being in His Presence, as Jesus instructed at John 14:23, which heads my brief list of scriptures for Foundational Discipleship in my consideration of whether or not the global pandemic is from God’s hand >https://richards-watch.org/2020/05/06/f-p-162-10-contd-is-this-global-pandemic-from-gods-hand/

Realize that this was/is a walk of faith like none of us have ever experienced. The Israelites, so as we, were/are dependent upon the Lord for the Word, for food, water, protection, and guidance because they had never been where they were being led.

Tony, that’s similar to what Thomas Harry understands from the word he had, and about which I’m making reference in post am drafting!

Those who start and then cease following the cloud will find themselves circling the mountain with no direction or purpose. Remember it was during this time that leadership was attacked and also remember that those refusing to obey died in the wilderness.
