The Lord’s House | The Ark of the Covenant Pt. IV

Morning Bible Study
Our God, is a God of details. Every detail carries weight and significance. Which is why Jesus came, as our pattern and example, to demonstrate to us how our Heavenly Father intended us to live this life; and carry out His Word. His ways are not burdensome; but they demonstrate the maturity required in becoming conformed to the image of His Son, Jesus the Christ.

The Lord’s House | The Table for the Showbread Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
The Table of Showbread carries with it immense weight and meaning. It was given as a sign for an everlasting covenant before the Lord; which was demonstrated through the provision made by/in Jesus.

The Lord’s House | The Gold Lampstand (Menorah) Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
The Golden Lampstand (Menorah) served as a type and shadow of Jesus; Who is, and was, and Is to come. We must cling to Him, Who is the vine, for our life and being; as He will help us bear much fruit in our lives, through the leading and guiding of His Holy Spirit. 

The Lord’s House | Jesus the Messiah’s Death, Burial, and Resurrection Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus is what our faiths founded on! If He had never rose again, then we'd have nothing to stand on. But, He did get up; and His blood is the payment for our sins. Let's see ourselves coming from Him and the work that He did for us on the cross; and the work He is still doing for us, by interceding for us at the right hand of the Father in Heaven. 

The Lord’s House | Jesus the Messiah’s Death, Burial, and Resurrection Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem was an entry demonstrating His grace. Grace He continues to pour out on all. In the days leading up to His crucifixion, Jesus continued to teach and instruct His disciples about many things. Because, Jesus needs His Church, His Body, The Bride of Christ to receive or understand they things we need, so we can be prepared; as He instructed us. Make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

The Lord’s House | Jesus the Messiah’s Death, Burial, and Resurrection Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
The instruction of the Lord contains so much detail. Every single detail matters; and we must not leave any detail out; as it has has significance and weight in our life. Now it is  impossible to carry out every detail in our flesh; so let's let Him be God in our life. He can do anything with a willing heart, that is faithful and 100 percent engaged towards Him. 

The Lord’s House | Jesus the Messiah’s Death, Burial, and Resurrection Pt. IV

Morning Bible Study
Our God is a God of relationships; first with Himself as He desired from the beginning, then with each other. The relationships, as He intended, are to help keep each other clean; unstained, or unblemished from the world and purely focused on Him. This was, and is, Jesus' focus; which He demonstrated at the "Last Supper" as He continued instructing them about spiritual matters and their application to the disciples natural lives. Up until the appointed time for Jesus to be arrested, tried, and crucified; to redeem us. 

The Lord’s House | Jesus the Messiah’s Death, Burial, and Resurrection Pt.V

Morning Bible Study and Communion
Jesus, the Messiah, endured so much pain and suffering for us. All of it, was to carry out His plan of restoration. Restoring or reconciling all who would believe back to the Heavenly Father. That's still His desire for you today. No matter what you've done, or how far you may think you've fallen; nothing is too far that our Lord and Savior can't save and restore. If you will choose Him. 

The Lord’s House | The Gold Lampstand (Menorah) Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
Our God has strategically ordained everything. He is so thorough, that every detail has significance and meaning. He gave Moses a pattern, because it is a representation or replica of the original; which exists in Heaven.  

The Lord’s House | The Gold Lampstand (Menorah) Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
The Lord's continuously extends His grace to us. In every situation and circumstance, every moment of every day. This is an extension of His glory, which is so weighty as discussed in Scripture, many couldn't be in the same place. We serve an awesome God, that dwells in us. His glory should shine forth in our lives; and we should also extend that same grace to others.

The Lord’s House | the Linen Curtains Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
The Word of God is living and active; and inexhaustible. Everything the Lord instructed the children of Israel to make for the Tabernacle was already provided for, and given to them, when they were delivered from Egypt. Our God has planned out everything. And within His plan is every provision for what He's purposed for you to do. 

The Lord’s House | the Linen Curtains Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
God is working in and through us to execute His plan. When the Lord asks if you will do something for Him...Will you bless your neighbor; will you give to my work? Will you follow me? And we go Yes, God. That's the part coming into action. This is the piece of the puzzle that we are to God's divine plan. And then everybody brings their piece, and we are knit together, supplying what we are created to supply to the entire work of God.

The Lord’s House | the Linen Curtains Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
Everything the Lord gave Moses the pattern for, was a copy of His original design; which already exist in the Heaven. It was all for our instruction, to aid in our understanding, so we can live out our life in a worthy manner. As a people prepared to serve the Lord our God; and to re-enter the Heavenly Community. 

The Lord’s House | The Linen Curtains Pt. IV

Morning Bible Study
Woven within the linen curtains were artistic displays of Cherubim; one of the types of angels mentioned in God's Word. All the angels focus on the Lord and carrying out His Word, as worship to Him. This is the message for us: Not to turn our focus to the right or left, but remain focused on God; and serve Him with our entire being (Spirit, Soul, and Body). Living out our life in worship to Him. 

The Lord’s House | The Linen Curtains Pt. V

Morning Bible Study
The artistic depictions of Cherubim on the Linen Curtains of the Tabernacle were a reminder of what exists in the Heavenly realm. We should not forget that God has given His angels charge over us; to minister to us, and continuously point us to the Lord. 

The Lord’s House | The Goat’s Hair Curtains, Ram, & Badger Skins Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
God is exactly who He says He is. The Lord God is gracious and merciful; and a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Each of these coverings for the Tabernacle speak to an aspect about our Lord and Savior Jesus, the Christ. 

The Lord’s House | The Goat’s Hair Curtains, Ram, & Badger Skins Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
Jesus is not only our covering, He is the One who renews us and reveals to us the purpose for which we were created. He loved us enough to endure the cross; even while we were enemies to Him. That is the ultimate demonstration of Love and Power.

The Lord’s House | The Boards, Bars, and Sockets Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
The plans of our Lord are extremely detailed and intricate. And, the greatest part about His plans, are that they never fail. He never has to recalculate or redo anything, because it is perfection from the start. We must trust Him, and His plans for us and our life. 

The Lord’s House | The Boards, Bars, and Sockets Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
The Word of God is never antiquated. It is always applicable to every aspect of our daily life. The Lord has prepared great and incredible works for us to do since before the foundation of the earth. And, He provides us with everything we need for our spiritual and natural strength to get the job done; by working together and cooperating with Him in His plan. 

The Lord’s House | The Boards, Bars, and Sockets Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
When the Lord gave Moses the pattern and instruction for the construction of the Tabernacle, he [Moses] believed God and carried out the plan. Moses didn't question the Lord about the validity of the pattern; asking if things were going to measure up. He chose to trust God and move forward in the work the Lord called Him to do. We should chose to follow this example in our own lives, because He [God] who promised is faithful. 

The Lord’s House | The Inner and Outer Veil & The Furnishings Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
Let's cooperate with the Lord's plan and let Him cultivate Himself in us, producing the fruit of righteousness. 

The Lord’s House | The Inner & Outer Veil and the Furnishings Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
The Lord loves us enough to meet us where we are; and encourage us to help us grow. As His Holy Spirit illuminates things, it sometimes can seem difficult;   but He never leave us there. That's not His nature. Even when the Israelites faced insurmountable odds; the Lord always took care of it and them. In the same way our growth and development in the Lord may seem hard at times; but He is right there with you, and speaking with you. 

The Lord’s House | The Inner & Outer Veil and the Furnishings Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
In everything the Lord asks us to do, there is a point to it. This is an important concept to understand. When the Lord speaks, many times we have a tendency to think to His words in what we want. However, He's talking about what He desires, and His plan that He is working. Let's renew our minds to align with Him and what He's doing. 

The Lord’s House | The Inner & Outer Veil and the Furnishings Pt. IV

Morning Bible Study
Jesus is restoring and purifying the Heavenly Community back to the Father. When we examine the Tabernacle, which is a copy of the things that already exist in the Heavenly places, we should understand that what Christ did was to bring us back to our rightful place. Which meant we were designed, or always supposed, to dwell in the Holy Place; That's where we started out, and that's where we're going back to; where there is no separation between us and God. 

The Lord’s House | The Bronze Altar of Burnt Offering Pt. I

Morning Bible StudyGod again point to His Son Jesus the Christ and His life on earth, both in two He lived and as the propitiation for our sin, through the Bronze Altar of Burned Offering in the Tabernacle. Which also demonstrates, or instructs us, how we are to live out our lives before the Lord. 

The Lord’s House | The Bronze Altar of Burnt Offering Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
As we move forward in our relationship with the Lord, presenting ourselves to Him as a living sacrifice, He surrounds us with His grace. His grace, which He extends because of His love, not only prevents us by being consumed by the fire; He plucks us out of the fire. Taking away all of our sin and iniquity, and  gives us beauty for ashes. 

The Lord’s House | The Bronze Altar of Burnt Offering Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
Everything the Lord created was for a sign and a symbol for us; to let us know who He is. He completed this even before the generations came and specifically asked to see signs, symbols, or proof of who God is. Many still missed it. Rejecting the very things they asked for when they were presented. Let's learn from their actions; and, remain willing to hear and see all the things the Lord has already given, which demonstrate who He is. 

The Lord’s House | The Bronze Altar of Burnt Offering Pt. IV

Morning Bible Study
Let the Lord bring you through the process of being conformed to the image of Jesus the Christ. Shaking and removing those things form your life that don't reflect His Character, Nature, and Attributes. 

The Lord’s House | The Bronze Altar of Burnt Offering Pt. V

Morning Bible Study
The refining process is to save our life, to save our soul; it is not to make God better in any way. So when He disciplines us, when He teaches us, when He refines, us when He speaks with us, when He takes his time with us it's because He's gracious and because of his love. But also, because it's for our good and for our benefit alone. 

The Lord’s House | The Court of the Tabernacle Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
Let us enter into His gates with thanksgiving in our heart and into His courts with praise. This can only be completed if our heart is truly toward the Lord. 

The Lord’s House | The Court of the Tabernacle Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
The Lord always gives us signs and symbols to assist us in accurately understanding Him. But they also serve as a reminder of who He desires to be in our lives and the blessings He has bestowed upon us. 

The Lord’s House | The Court of the Tabernacle Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
Like a loving parent, our Heavenly Father has put safeguards in place to protect us; not to box us in or limit us. Just like in Job, a hedge of protection was placed all around Him and what he had, to ward off the attacks of the enemy. But, just like little children, we must view the safeguards with a right perspective. Our Heavenly Father only does things for our good or benefit. 

The Lord’s House | The Care of the Golden Lampstand (Menorah) Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
Each of us, must care for the lamp, which is Jesus the Christ, in our life. Ensuring that we remain attentive to Him and His Will for us; not providing an opportunity for the Light to grow dim or burn out. The Lord has already provided everything we need; we then need to apply what He's given us. 

The Lord’s House | The Care of the Golden Lampstand (Menorah) Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
We have to understand the plan of the Lord and what he's doing right. Yes, it goes back to earth as a choosing ground. Also, His say as for your life; how to understand and operate in the world of the Lord and what He's doing, how to come into alignment with that. And what he's doing is purifying the heavenly community.

The Lord’s House | The Care of the Golden Lampstand (Menorah) Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
A time of preparation comes along with the anointing. King David's chosen by the Lord and anointed to be king. He also was on the run from King Saul for a significant amount of time. We need to renew our mind concerning the anointing; being able to focus beyond instant power we're supposed to have to be able to do what we are able to do. Yes, it does give supernatural ability; but preparation is character development. Developing or conforming us to the image of Jesus the Christ. Having His character, nature, and attributes continuously demonstrated in every area and aspect of our life. 

The Lord’s House | Garments for the Priesthood Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
The Priesthood (Aaron and his sons) were clothing themselves, or putting on, with the colors that represent Jesus the Christ as our great High Priest (Blue), as the King of Kings (Purple), as our Savior (Red), and as the Son of God (White). We are instructed to put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for the flesh. Let's let's submit every area and aspect of our life to the Lord, so His nature, character, and attributes can't help but be observed by all. 

The Lord’s House | Garments for the Priesthood Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
God said He wants our whole heart. He wants all of our allegiance unto Him. Then He will demonstrate to us how we should engage and interact with other people and other things. When our allegiance and our motives are pure, God can work miracles through us; He can do whatever it is that he wants to do through us. But when we have corrupted motives, when we're not 100% for God, then there's the opportunity for our flesh to get us in trouble; and to create opportunities to sin against the Lord. We have to be okay accepting that God is holy; and not expect him to lay down his holiness, His requirements, and righteous for us.

The Lord’s House | The Ephod Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
We are resemble, or be like, Christ. Not just an appearance, not just in actions and deeds;  we are to resemble and worship Him in Spirit and Truth.

The Lord’s House | The Ephod Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
God saying to us that he's looking for people that will do his well above their own. He's looking for that in the season. We've been given the specifications and the diligence that's required; but, we've also seen the gifting of God, Whom has provided as needed, everything to get the job done. So, that we are able to partake in in building and constructing the House. So everything that God does, did, or does has a purpose? And, that is in our lives as well.

The Lord’s House | The Ephod Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
The key to the Word of God, is trusting in the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit to help us appropriately apply the instruction we've already received. And, that makes all the difference. The Lord gave us a physical representation through the Tabernacle, pointing us to Christ, and then bringing the pattern and example back to your life. This is how we live this out. It matters for us and our well being in this life; and, for eternity.

The Lord’s House | The Breastplate Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
We are the Lord's special treasure. Which is why we are called to be a people that are holy unto the Lord, because He chose us. He called us from before the foundations of the earth were laid. He desires to be our God, and that we would be His people. 

The Lord’s House | The Breastplate Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
We have a verdict, not guilty, and the children of God and the people that have parked under the blood of the new Covenant, are not guilty. Not guilty is always going to be the verdict for you. Keep resisting the adversary and  maintain your abode in Christ. Be glad and appreciate who you are in Jesus Christ.

The Lord’s House | The Breastplate, Urim and Thummim Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
In examining the Breastplate, the Lord is providing a physical demonstration that people can look upon to see how it's all connected. And by that I mean, this is how you get to reenter the Heavenly community. Trust in the Lord with all your mind, heart, body, soul, and strength. Depend on the Lord and cling to Him for your everything. He's already provided it. We're His children; it was meant for us. The Lord gave Himself for us.

The Lord’s House | The Robe of the Ephod and Turban Pt. I

Morning Bible Study
Parenting is God's idea; and the most perfect way of doing it only comes from Him. So it's natural that he exercises that imperfection in a perfect way is what I mean. Also, consider that while the Lord made a place for Levi's sons to have a place before the hem, they still had to accept it. They still had to treat it righteously. Because of who they were, they weren't allowed to profane the things of God and trample underfoot the things that God said are holy. They weren't able to just run into the Holy of Holies. They still had to come through the door; which is the way God set up and structured for things to happen.

The Lord’s House | The Robe of the Ephod and Turban Pt. II

Morning Bible Study
The Lord wants us to cooperate with Him, walk beside Him as He walks alongside you and helps you do the things that He's requiring; so that we can have covenant relationship. And, it's not too hard. It's okay for God to ask us to respect His holiness. Yes, it's okay for God to ask us, and we should expect him to, to be God; and us to offer our reverence to Him as His people.
 

The Lord’s House | The Robe of the Ephod and Turban Pt. III

Morning Bible Study
The Lord has given us power and authority. We can trust him, because He is faithful. But we have to demonstrate that we are faithful; that we are trustworthy. We must be people of integrity the way the Lord describes integrity. He said, "Greater works than these you will do." Okay, well, can he trust us with that kind of power and authority?

The Lord’s House | The Robe of the Ephod and Turban Pt. IV

Morning Bible Study
The Lord's character and attributes, and the things He's already placed there for us to be reminded of how we are to live out our lives before our Heavenly Father. If we're being led by Him, through His Holy Spirit; those are the sons of God. So, I just want to encourage you come into a relationship with the Lord and be led by Him. It will absolutely change your life; now, and for eternity.
