Grace Happenings | August 17,



Pastors Pen

Just want to give you a thought to ponder. The Ark of the Covenant was the place of the presence of God. Exodus 25:22 says, And there I will meet with you, and I will speak with you from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which are on the ark of the Testimony, about everything which I will give you in commandment to the children of Israel. The presence of the Lord was manifest or evident wherever the Ark was.

The Ark had three contents, the ten commandments, an almond branch that was budding the manna. Each of this was a reminder of God’s provision and blessing.

I want us to think about the manna for a minute. Remember in Exodus 16 the manna was the bread from heaven that God gave them to eat, but they were only to gather what they could eat on that day. Exodus 16:20 says, some of them paid no attention to Moses; they kept part of it until morning, but it was full of maggots and began to smell.

They were to depend on manna as daily bread and trust God for provision each day because it would go bad by the next morning.

Why did the manna never go bad in the Ark of Testimony because nothing can spoil in the manifest presence of God! I believe in the Presence, everything stays fresh.

Of course, we live in His presence each and every day, but His presence is not always equally manifest in our lives. In your relationship with God seek His deep and evident presence so that everything can stay fresh.

Excited to see you this weekend.
