The Tabernacle in the wilderness is a picture of what we would call a “prayer closet.” The Tabernacle is actually a tent. . . .

Buried in the intricate detail of the wilderness Tabernacle are the 4 layers of curtains for the Holy Place. This is the enclosed tent where the priests ministered at the Table of Showbread, the Altar of Incense, the Menorah, and the Ark of the Covenant. God prescribed 4 layers of curtains with the final layer made of porpoise skins (or badger skins, depending on your translation). In other words, the layer that would be seen from the outside is porpoise skins. I had an idea that I was considering and needed to know what are these porpoise skins all about. My biblical references were no help. . . .

We were vacationing and on the way to see some interesting site. We came upon a small, local grocery store and stopped for snacks. As I made my purchase, I couldn’t help noticing the baby in the next check stand. The baby was so tiny and cute! It must have been less than one week old! The young parents were attempting to buy a handful of items with an expired food card. My heart . . .

The nation of Israel coward in fear when God’s voice thundered from Mount Sinai. They wanted Moses to be their mediator. So throughout the whole Old Testament, instead of speaking directly, God spoke through His prophets.

These days, God has a new way of communicating . . . .

Last week’s devotion reminded me of this one that I had written three years ago. This one is an Old Testament foreshadowing of God’s desire to have us shine for Jesus. . . .

Yes, God will not share His glory with another. Yet in the book of Hebrews (2:10), it says that Jesus brings many sons and daughters to share in His glory. How can that be? . . . .

Quickly make a list of the benefits of believing on the Lord Jesus Christ. What are your top three?

My top three would probably read like this: . . .

November 1st, 2019, my Dad was released from his fragile, pain-ridden, earthly tent into the loving arms of his Savior. Finally, my Dad is pain-free and dancing with his Jesus. I’m happy for him! And I look forward to joining him some day.

As I prayed about a fitting tribute to publish here, the Lord reminded me of two things: 1) a touching memory and 2) a poignant poem. . . .

My battle with the flu last week taught me a valuable spiritual lesson: God’s power comes as I use my authority, in Him. . . .

Twenty or more Healing Room volunteers crowded into my front room to pray over our ministry. As we prayed, someone mentioned that they saw angels up in my loft area. I snapped my head in that direction anxious to see angels in my own house! Alas, I didn’t see them. . . .

Ethnic hatred has been dissolved by the crucifixion of [Jesus’] precious body on the cross. Ephesians 2:15 TPT

By dying as our sacrifice, Jesus has broken down every wall of prejudice that separated us (Eph. 2:14b) and has brought us back together as one family.

There is an allegorical picture of this in . . .

Yes, eat all your greens.

Yes, exercise regularly.

Yes, steward your temple.

But our bodies are only a temporary tent, as fleeting and . . .
