Focus Chapters:
- Exodus 25-28
Standout Verse(s):
Exodus 25:8-9 NLT
“Have the people of Israel build me a holy sanctuary so I can live among them. You must build this Tabernacle and its furnishings exactly according to the pattern I will show you.
Observation (s):
- Despite the Israelites complaining nature, God still seeks to live with His people.
Have the people of Israel build me a holy sanctuary so I can live among them.
- If we desire God to live among us, our tabernacle must be built to mean his specifications.
You must build this Tabernacle and its furnishings exactly according to the pattern I will show you.
Application:
From the days of Adam, God has sought a relationship with His people. During Adam’s time in the Garden of Eden, God came down in the evenings and communed with Adam. Thousands of years later, His desire to live among His people is still evident. Except, one thing separates us from God. We have not built the tabernacle/holy sanctuary exactly to the specifications that God has given us. Adam’s tabernacle was spoilt by his disobedience and oftentimes, ours are too.
Do you seek to commune with God? He seeks to commune with you too! Bridging the gap is within your power. Remove the barrier. Build and maintain the tabernacle according to His specifications.
