Today we finished the last two chapters of the book of Exodus. God had been very specific in his instructions on how to build the Tabernacle in the Wilderness. Every-thing was accomplished according to how God had instructed Moses to build it and nothing was left undone. When everything was completed, God’s presence came down at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregation in a thick cloud and His Glory filled the place. As long as the cloud remained in place, the Children of Israel would also remain in place. As soon as the cloud lifted up from the door of the Tabernacle then the Children of Israel would move with it. I am reminded of how much this pictures you and I as Christians, for everything concerning the Tabernacle pointed to the Cross of Calvary and everything completed in the Christian is a picture of the Cross of Calvary as well.
To think of the Glory of the Lord is one thing but to think of the agony that the Lord Jesus endured on the cross is entirely something else. And once again I say that everything concerning the Tabernacle of the Congregation in the wilderness points to the time when Jesus would suffer on the cross for you and me. Every time God accepted a blood sacrifice in the Holy of Holies was a picture of how God would one day accept His own Sons blood on the mercy seat in Heaven after Jesus died on the cross. It makes me want to give Him praise even now just thinking about it.
As everyone saw the Glory of the Lord shine from the Cloud in the door of the Congregation, then even today everyone should see Gods Glory shine through you and I as we live for Christ daily. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
We love you till the next time and may God bless. Faithsbook
