In this message, we cover a lot of text, text that is often taken for granted — but it pictures something so crucial: Israel’s absolute, unflinching obedience to all of God’s commands regarding the construction and consecration of the Tabernacle.

In this message, we see a direct call to Israel to worship God rightly, and that worship involved much, much more than just music, or hymns, or choruses – all of which is still true today.

In this message, we see the pinnacle of Moses’ intercession for Israel and God’s grace on display – despite Israel’s rebellion, God fully renews and restores His covenant with the nation.

In this message, we see God walk Israel back through the same test of life they had previously failed – do we learn anything from our missteps and failures? Do we actually learn more from our failures than our successes?

In this message, we see a vivid reminder that sin has consequences – not because God is capricious or hateful, but because painful consequences are often the only things that will force us to take our sins seriously and flee them.

In this message, we are reminded that although the mercy and grace of God are amazing, and even the most wicked sins can be forgiven, the consequences of sin do not always vanish.

In this message, we come to both one of the most wicked periods of sin in Israel’s history but also one of the most vivid pictures of our need for an intercessor and a Savior.

In this message, we begin our final series in our journey through Exodus, “Covenant Renewed.” Before God inaugurates Israel’s use of the Tabernacle, He chooses to reemphasize several portions of the Old Covenant – and there’s much we can learn from what He highlights.

In this message, we conclude this series on the Tabernacle through “Gifted Craftsmen,” in Exodus 31:1-11. We see skilled workers and skilled workmanship with divine appointment and divine equipment. Even today, there are still ways that the church can craft beautiful things for God’s glory.

In this message, we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle through “Bought with a Price,” in Exodus 30:11-21. As we consider the atonement money and the bronze basin, we’re reminded of two great New Testament truths: salvation and sanctification.

In this message, we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle and consider “The Altar of Incense,” in Exodus 30:1-10. This crucial element of the Tabernacle clearly brings into view our privilege of prayer and our intimacy with God.

In this message, we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle and consider “A Daily Dwelling,” from Exodus 29:38-46. It’s a very good look at how the Tabernacle was intending to symbolize a total surrender to the Lord, for both priests but also all the nation of Israel.

In this message, as we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle, we consider “The Consecration of Priests,” in Exodus 29:1-37. As we finish this look at the holy operations of the Tabernacle, we see that everyone and everything involved in its work needed to be cleansed, enabled, anointed and sanctified.

In this message, as we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle, we consider “Fit for a Priest,” in Exodus 28:31-43. As we finish our look at the priestly garments, we are reminded of some key responsibilities of believers in the church era, especially holiness.

In this message, as we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle, we consider “The Priests’ Breastpiece,” in Exodus 28:15-30. In so many ways, the breastpiece is the centerpiece of the priests’ garments, and it is rich with implications for the church today – implications that all point to the work of Christ in our lives.

In this message, as we continue our journey through Exodus and the Tabernacle, we consider “The Priests and Their Ephod,” in Exodus 28:1-14. As we look at the work of the priests, we should see them simply as an extension of the work of the Tabernacle – reminding all believers that we are to be about God’s business.
