The Ark of the Covenant | Exodus 25:9-22

This Christmas, many of us are going to gather with family, meet together over a hearty meal and warm fellowship and celebrate the incarnation of our Saviour. It’s a time where our families can catch up, where we can enjoy each other’s company, relax, unwind and dwell in each other’s presence.
In this passage, God gives Moses instructions on how to build the Ark of the Covenant. This wooden box, overlaid with gold, with two figures of angels upon it, containing the two tablets of the law, will be the place where God meets with his people – where he will dwell with them as their covenant God, drawing near to them. Yet because God is holy, and his people are lawbreakers – this meeting is not like a casual Christmas party. God’s people deserve his wrath, not his favour, because he is holy and they are sinners. Built into the architecture of the Ark of the Covenant is the solution to this problem. We’ll see that because Jesus’ blood has been shed on the mercy seat, sinners are reconciled to God so that God can dwell among his people.

Gratitude to a Generous God | Exodus 25:1-8

The prosperity gospel is a scourge in our city and throughout much of the African continent. It peddles the lie that God only wants you to enjoy health, wealth and happiness in this life. And in order to enjoy this prosperity, you need to do your part, sow your seed, give lots of money to the church, and then you will unlock these temporal blessings in your life.
Most of us recoil when we hear this sort of thing, and rightly so, it’s a false gospel. Yet the potential problem that we have is an overreaction against this. Because of the excesses of the prosperity gospel, there is a temptation to see all giving and tithing as wrong and unnecessary. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Giving of our finances to God is an important sign of our commitment to Christ. In fact, our willingness to give to God is an important marker of our spiritual health. A life marked by generosity, of our finances, time, hospitality – is a sign of real Christianity. A Christian who isn’t giving probably isn’t growing.
In this text, God instructs Moses to take up an offering from the people of Israel in order to build the tabernacle. Israel is instructed to give to God as their hearts move them, and give of their best to him out of gratitude for what he’s done for them. What we’ll see from this text is that because God has generously poured out his undeserved grace in Christ to us, we are to give of our best to him.

A Royal Banquet | Exodus 24:9-18

In a few weeks’ time we’re going to be in full swing of end of year parties as we enter the Christmas season, which culminates in Christmas Day lunch. We’re going to have the opportunity to share meals together with friends and family over good food and drink. Time to fellowship, relax and connect with those whom we love, and unwind after the stress of the year.
In this text, we read about a very special meal. Moses and the elders of Israel come before the very presence of God. They are granted the immense privilege of sharing a meal before him. There is something deeply significant about this event that even reaches through to us today. What we’ll see is that because Jesus’ blood was shed for us, we can enjoy fellowship with God and behold his glory.
