Our Sacred Space series wraps up today and we discover our exploration of the Tabernacle points to one breathtaking truth: God made a way to bring people near through mercy. The story of the Tabernacle is the story of a God who moved into the middle of broken people so mercy could bring them close. And as a result, Sacred Space became a place for each of us to live. We finish our series today at The Mercy Seat and take an aerial view of the Tabernacle as we close. It is going to be a very good day. Get ready to worship and grow!

The Sacred Space series has carried us into the Tabernacle. We have been rediscovering the holiness of God and seeing the importance of how every space God is in becomes sacred. Your life is sacred space if you know Jesus and you make every space you move in and out of sacred, because He is with you. Today, we move just explore the tabernacle just a little bit deeper and discover that He is closer than you think. That is really good news and today, you will be vividly reminded of just how amazing God is.

We are exploring the Tabernacle and discovering why it is a Sacred Space. Interestingly enough, we have also found out that the Tabernacle is so much more than we originally thought. It is a place where we are reminded and discover the bigness, the majesty, and the holiness of God. The door is open – it is time to allow your life to become the sacred space it is intended to be.

Today we continue our visit into Sacred Space. We are discovering the bigness and majesty of God. We have ventured back in time and find ourselves in the Tabernacle. Last week we got caught up in the activity, the sights, the sounds, the smells, and the meaning of all that was happening in the outer court yard. Today we step out of the outer court into to the Holy Place. As we pull the tent flap open and step inside, with a soft rustling sound it closes behind us. This new space is quiet, a stark contrast of the noise just outside. There is a soft glow that illuminates everything around us. The source of that light is the lampstand. We get closer to it … we look… and what we see helps us to understand more about how we are to become the sacred space in the world around us. It should be fun and dare we say – illuminating! (See what we did there?) Get ready to experience Sacred Space once again.

This week in Sacred Space we once again return to our look at The Tabernacle. In doing so, we address a huge topic for people everywhere. This is something that people who already know God struggle with and it also impacts people who don’t know God.
Most people, in some way or another, long to be close to God. The problem arises because what we don’t realize is that closeness has a cost. This is vividly illustrated and brought to life in what we understand about The Tabernacle in the Old Testament. But don’t get so lost in the look toward the past that you miss the impact it has in the here and now. Yes, closeness has a cost, but once you know it – then it can happen for you. The end result, you can be close to God. Get ready, here we go…off to The Tabernacle.
