TEXT: Exodus 29:45–46
INTRO: From the beginning, God has desired to dwell with His people. Even after sin fractured that relationship, He continued pursuing humanity, making a way for His presence to remain among them. In Exodus 29:45–46, God reveals the heart behind His deliverance of Israel and the establishment of the tabernacle: "so that I might dwell among them." But dwelling in the presence of a holy God is not something we can take lightly. Sin separates us from Him, yet through Jesus Christ, God has made a way for us to be reconciled to Him. His presence is more than something we experience in a moment of worship. It should transform how we live, leading us to glorify God in everything we do.
