he is everything that the tabernacle embodies he is triune in his being the outer court the inner
court the holies of holies like man body soul and spirit like god father son and the holy ghost
god shows us in the tabernacle glimpses of his grace just just just inklings of grace
just drops in clues and elements for us to see how bad he wants to hang out with us
imagine being in the wilderness miles and miles of sand hot scorching hot sand
beneath your feet blazing sun above your head imagine walking and seeing nothing
but repetitions of what you're walking on not just on the ground but in the wind
in your nostrils in your clothing all around you this was the wilderness that israel will do
to get to the promised land sand under your feet sand in your nostrils in your hair heat
in the day freezing cold at night the only covering they had was the presence of god
and they had to stay up under it because he gave them heat in the night and shade by day
thank you for the shades you gave me thank you for how you put a buffer between me and the
things that i went through and in the middle of the desert with the 12 tribes of israel
god decided to have a date with man and he decided to have a date and a tabernacle and the hebrew
word for tabernacle is oh hell mohed it means a tent of meeting it's a rendezvous place it's a
place where divinity courts humanity it's a place where the celestial dates the terrestrial it's a
place where the divine touches the mundane this was the tabernacle it is god playing etch-a-sketch
drawing jesus in the tabernacle because everything the tabernacle was in shadow jesus was in reality
he is a place where humanity and divinity cohabitate he is a place
where the celestial touches the terrestrial he is everything that the tabernacle embodies
he is triune in his being the outer court the inner court the holies of holies like man body
soul and spirit like god father son and the holy ghost god shows us in the tabernacle glimpses
of his grace just just just inklings of grace just drops in clues and elements for us to see
how bad he wants to hang out with us he preps us for thousands of years because the
tabernacle is a shadow of jesus and he's trying to get us ready for his entrance
because everything the tabernacle was in the wilderness it was surrounded by the 12 tribes
of israel and he was the one who sat in the midst of his people and everything the tabernacle was in
the wilderness christ was in reality that's why when the baby was born they called him emmanuel
god tabernacled with us he is the dwell amongst us god not to dwell among you god you can't have him
and restrict me from getting him the tabernacle was designed so that the each tribe was able to
have access to him whether you were benjamin or issachar or dan or gad or judah or naphtali we
all had equal access to god in the same way god has so fixed himself that no particular people
can restrict any other group of people from being able to access him he is a dwell amongst
us god it is this understanding of god that makes us realize how far he would go to date you
from glory to earth from eternity to time from celestial to terrestre the divine
came upon mary and said let me borrow a tent of flesh so you can see me walk
so the voice of the lord that walked through the cool of the garden and the book of genesis didn't
have a tent to wear but the voice of the lord that walked in matthew mark luke and john was
dressed up in the tent of mary's flesh and he is the tabernacle because he is the dwell amongst us
god and he dwelt among us and we beheld the wonder of his glory the only begotten of the father full
of grace and truth and everywhere his feet drawn we had seen god philip said show us the father
and it sufficeth the and jesus said have i been so long time with you and you still don't know that i
and my father are one i am god dwelling amongst you in the midst of you in your camp so i can
hang out with you so that you can get to know my daddy so that you can see me so that you can
understand me in fact i am daddy loving you god is loving you through me touching you through me
healing you through me coming to you through me i am so much him that when they rip my flesh
the veil in the temple will rip because we are one and the same i am the holies of holies i am the
ark of the covenant i am the table of shoe bread i am the altar of incense i am the part of manna
i am aaron's rod that butted i am the commandments fulfilled i am good enough to be human i am
gold enough to be divine i am carried amongst my people i am god all by myself
