Bethel is close to where the
tent of the Lord was pitched, and it has sacred memories of a ladder
reaching up to heaven and holy angels ascending and descending on
ministrations of mercy to man below. To me it, of all places, seemed
nearest heaven; but, if I may reveal a secret, I have found that Bethel
is not the only place that has associations of a ladder planted on it
and reaching heaven.
"The reason I wanted to stop at Moriah was because I heard Brother
Dreamgood who lives there tell of the remarkable experiences he had
there. I began thinking there was no place in Canaan like that, and I
did not stop to consider that all of us could not abide in one place.
Brother Dreamgood told the wonderful story of angels and holy
manifestations and heavenly illuminations constantly occurring on that
sacred spot till I forgot all about asking where the Lord would have me
be, and forthwith started for Moriah. But I was baffled at every turn.
Especially was I chagrined to find there was no place for me on Moriah
at that time. Brother Dreamgood had a dreadful battle with the giants
before he won a home for himself, and I am not certain that I could have
fought them successfully.
