[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Exodus Overview]] | [[Exodus 25]] ## Title: Make A Place to Meet With the LORD ## Scripture: (Exodus 25:21-22) “You are to put the atonement lid on top of the ark, and in the ark you are to put the testimony I am giving you. I will meet with you there, and from above the atonement lid, from between the two cherubim that are over the ark of the testimony, I will speak with you about all that I will command you for the Israelites.” (NET) ## Observation: The Tabernacle was meant to be portable. They were instructed to carry the presence of God with them wherever they went. However, within that structure, there were places for things to sit. The most important was the Ark of the Covenant. The Ark was a representation of the presence of God. They honored the Ark because it represented the Throne of their Heavenly King. When we meet with God, we are not bound by a place and time. We carry the presence of God with us wherever we go. However, we must never forget the wonder and honor of being able to meet with the King of kings wherever we go. We must always create an attitude of honor so that, wherever we meet with the Lord, we make a place in our heart that honors the moment and treats the Lord as holy. ## Application: This week, during your quiet time with the LORD, remember the honor we have of meeting with the King. Set aside the time as an uninterrupted time of fellowship with the LORD. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for allowing us to know You.
