Has Poured Out

Joel 2:28-29 ESV
28 “And it shall come to pass afterward,
that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams,
and your young men shall see visions.
29 Even on the male and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit.

Acts 2:32-36
This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses. 33 Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing. 34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,
“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
35 until I make your enemies your footstool.”’
36 Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”

The Lord no longer dwells apart from His people, but He is with us, within us. Rather than speaking from a mountain top, we hear words instead rising from the indwelling Holy Spirit.

He resides with us as individuals, even though we are in the one body. In a sense, we have become the mountain of the Lord. The fire of His presence burns within. We do not stand at a distance from the mountain in fear as did Israel. We are able to call on God as Father.
