00:16 Hi and welcome back to His Words Are Life.
00:18 I'm Kelly Mowrer, and thank you 00:20 for joining with me today 00:21 to read the Word of God. 00:23 When we were last together we were reading in Exodus about 00:25 the instructions that the Lord is giving to Moses 00:28 in building the sanctuary. And I was really touched 00:31 when we were reading together about where God came to 00:35 to meet with the people, specifically came to commune 00:37 with them, He came to the mercy seat. 00:39 He gave Moses the instructions to build the ark, 00:42 and to make the mercy seat on it and He said "and that's where 00:45 I will meet you and where I will commune with you. " 00:47 And if anybody watching right now wants to meet and commune 00:51 with God but there are things in your life that make you feel 00:55 unworthy and cut off and like, maybe, God may not 01:01 be too interested in meeting with you, 01:02 remember that as far back as the Old Testament with the 01:06 Israelites He said: "I will meet with you at the mercy seat. " 01:09 That's where each of us... and that's only where 01:11 each of us can meet with God. 01:12 Let's go and pray together before we start reading again. 01:14 Dear God, thank you so much for Your mercy. 01:17 Thank you that in Your love for us that we don't deserve 01:22 and we don't even understand, You have made provision 01:25 for us to come and meet with You. Not at a place of judgment, 01:28 not at a place of condemnation, but a place of mercy. 01:32 And that's where we want to be with You - always. 01:35 And that's what we need so desperately. 01:36 Come now and be with us especially as we read Your 01:39 words and write Your law in our heart, 01:41 and may these words bear fruit to Your glory. 01:43 We love You so much. Thank you for loving us. Amen. 01:47 We are reading in the book of Exodus 01:49 and we're in chapter 25 and picking up with verse 23. 01:54 And this is the King James version. 01:56 Thou shalt also make a table of shittim wood: 02:00 two cubits shall be the length thereof, 02:02 and a cubit the breadth thereof, 02:04 and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 02:06 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, 02:08 and make thereto a crown of gold round about. 02:12 And thou shalt make unto it a border of a handbreadth 02:15 round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border 02:18 thereof round about. And thou shalt make for it 02:22 four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners 02:25 that are on the four feet thereof. 02:27 Over against the border shall the rings be for places of 02:32 the staves to bear the table. 02:34 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay 02:38 them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. 02:41 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, 02:44 and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, 02:48 to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them. 02:52 And thou shalt set upon the table showbread 02:55 before Me always. 02:58 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: 03:00 of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: 03:03 his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, 03:07 and his flowers, shall be of the same. 03:10 And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; 03:13 three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, 03:16 and three branches of the candlestick 03:18 out of the other side. 03:20 Three bowls made like unto almonds with a knop and a flower 03:24 in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds 03:29 in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: 03:31 so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick. 03:35 And in the candlestick shall be four bowls made like unto 03:40 almonds, with their knops and their flowers. 03:43 And there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, 03:46 and a knop under two branches of the same, 03:49 and a knop under two branches of the same, according to 03:52 the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick. 03:54 Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: 03:58 all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold. 04:02 And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: 04:06 and they shall light the lamps thereof that they may 04:08 give light over against it. 04:10 And the tongs thereof, and the snuff dishes thereof, 04:13 shall be of pure gold. 04:15 Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, 04:19 with all these vessels. 04:20 And look that thou make them after their pattern, 04:23 which was showed thee in the mount. 04:25 We are reading from the book of Exodus, 04:27 and we are on chapter 26 and this is the King James version. 04:30 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains 04:35 of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: 04:39 with cherubim's of cunning work shalt thou make them. 04:42 The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, 04:47 and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: 04:49 and every one of the curtains shall have one measure. 04:52 The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; 04:56 and other five curtains shall be coupled together one to another. 05:00 And thou shalt makes loops of blue upon the edge of the one 05:04 curtain from the selvedge in the coupling; and likewise 05:06 shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain, 05:09 in the coupling of the second. 05:11 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, 05:14 and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain 05:17 that is in the coupling of the second; 05:19 that the loops may take hold one of another. 05:22 And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains 05:27 together with the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle. 05:32 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to be a covering 05:35 upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make. 05:39 The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, 05:42 and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: 05:44 And the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure. 05:48 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, 05:51 and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth 05:55 curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle. 05:58 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain 06:02 that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge 06:05 of the curtain which coupleth the second. 06:07 And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches 06:10 into the loops, and couple the tent together, 06:12 that it may be one. 06:13 And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, 06:18 the half curtain that remaineth, shalt hang over the backside 06:21 of the tabernacle. And a cubit on the one side, 06:24 and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth 06:27 in the length of the curtains of the tent, 06:28 it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side 06:32 and on that side, to cover it. 06:35 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins 06:39 dyed red, and a covering above of badgers' skins. 06:43 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood 06:46 standing up. Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, 06:50 and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board. 06:53 Two tenons shall there be in one board, 06:56 set in order one against another; 06:59 thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle. 07:02 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, 07:05 twenty boards on the south side southward. 07:08 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver 07:10 under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board 07:13 for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board 07:16 for his two tenons.

And thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, 08:12 and make their rings of gold for places for the bars: 08:16 and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold. 08:18 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the 08:22 fashion thereof which was showed thee in the mount. 08:25 And thou shalt make a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, 08:28 and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubim's 08:31 shall it be made. And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars 08:35 of shittim wood overlaid with gold: 08:37 their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver. 08:41 And thou shalt hang up the veil under the taches, 08:44 that thou mayest bring in thither within the veil 08:47 the ark of the testimony: 08:50 and the veil shall divide unto you between the holy place 08:53 and the most holy. And thou shalt put the mercy seat 08:57 upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place. 09:01 And thou shalt set the table without the veil, 09:03 and the candlestick over against the table on the side 09:06 of the tabernacle toward the south; 09:08 and thou shalt put the table on the north side. 09:10 And thou shalt make a hanging for the door of the tent, 09:13 of blue, and purple, and scarlet; and fine twined linen, 09:16 wrought with needlework. 09:18 And thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of 09:21 shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, 09:23 and their hooks shall be of gold: 09:26 and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them. 09:29 We are reading in the book of Exodus. 09:31 And this is chapter 27 in the King James version. 09:35 Beginning verse 1... 09:37 And thou shalt make an altar of shittim wood, 09:39 five cubits long, and five cubits broad; 09:42 the altar shall be foursquare: and the height thereof 09:45 shall be three cubits.
