Exod . 33. 15 , 16 :
And he said unto him , if thy presence go not with us , carry us not up hence ; For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy People have found Grace in thy sight , is it not in that thou goest with us .
1 King . 8. 57 , 58.
The Lord our God be with us as he was with our Fathers , let him not leave us nor forsake us , that he may incline our hearts unto him to walk in all his wayes , &c.
Neh . 9. 19.
Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the Wilderness , the Pillar of the Cloud departed not from them by day to lead them in the way , neither the Pillar of Fire by night to shew them light , and the way wherein they should go .
Isai . 4. 5.
And the Lord will create upon every dwelling place of Mount Sion , and upon her Assemblies a Cloud and Smoke by day , and the shining of a flaming fire by night , for upon all the Glory shall be a defence .
