Numbers 7, Psalms 30, Luke 20:1-26
What God said to me – I gave Moses detailed instructions on the tent of meeting – what was to be in it – how to set it up – how to take it down – how to transport it from place to place. Did you notice that when they transport it that all of the physical structure, the boards and poles and coverings, were all packed up and carried in wagons. But the most holy things – the altar, the lampstand, the table of incense, the table of shewbread and the ark and mercy seat were carried on their shoulders. They were special and required personal care and reverence. You are now My temple. You can listen to preachers and teachers and podcasts and go to all kinds of spiritual meetings, but like the holy things in the temple there are some things that are personal in your spiritual walk and must be done by you – your salvation – prayer – time in My word – spending time with Me. If you want to grow in grace and become a mature believer, it requires time alone with Me.
