Last week we finished off with the
Most Holy Place. We came to the conclusion that the mercy seat
represents our good standing with God. It represents our close
relationship with Him. We are sitting at the right hand of God,
because Jesus is sitting there and we are one with Him. Therefore
we have victory from the Throne room. Nothing can faze us there;
nothing can come against us there.
We also had a look at the Ark and
its contents and we concluded that God wants us to come to Him
under the new Covenant, always and without restraint. His 'door' is
always open to us. And with Him is all the provision we will ever
need. We never need to worry, in His presence we will find all that
we ever need, never lacking in any good thing.
So all in all the Most Holy Place
represents the New Covenant, it represents our right standing with
God because of the blood of Jesus. In the Most Holy Place we are
safe. In His presence no evil can befall us. There is true life and
life in abundance. We are at His right hand, who can come against
us? If God is for us, who can be against us? God is so gracious and
kind, so loving. We just need to stay by His side.
What is worrying you are the
moment? Is it your finances? Is it the future of this beautiful
land of ours? Is it the future of your children? It is a worrying
symptom in your body? What is it?
Today I want you to know that God's
got this. He really does. He has it in His hands. The only real
problems come when we snatch it out of His hands and try and fix it
ourselves. The real worries surface when we run out of the Most
Holy Place and try and sort everything out with other humans in the
outer court. That is when all the troubles start. Earthly problems
cannot be solved with earthly solutions. They cannot. Earthly
problems are only solved from the Most Holy Place, alongside God,
using His solutions. Yes, some of His solutions might involve using
earthly connections or earthly tools, but when it comes from His
Throne room, it has spiritual power and authority, resulting in
true answers. Only in Him is all answers found, true lasting
solutions to our problems.
Sit back this week and write down
everything that you are worried about and take it to His Throne
room. Go and sit with Him and ask Him what His solutions are and
really expect Him to answer you. He will. Then leave the cares and
the worries of these problems with Him. Trust Him with it. Do not
snatch it out of His hand. Then go out and do what He has placed on
your heart, without the worries and cares associated with it. True
liberty is found by doing just that. He is so loving, He WANTS to
help you and care for you. He doesn't want you stressed out. Allow
Him to; you won't be sorry that you did.
Dear Father, thank you so much for
being there for us. Thank you for Your tender loving care. Father
we are worried about so many things. But thank you so much that we
can leave it with You. Thank you that You have the answers. Please
speak clearly to us, we are listening. Amen
