Welcome to the book of Mark. Don’t blink, or you’ll miss something good. The key word in Mark is “immediately.” Jesus was a busy guy.

The end of Exodus offers us a beautiful promise to hold onto. God provided His visible presence as a guide for His children—a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night. God’s presence along that sacred wilderness journey into the Promised Land is the same presence that goes before you. No matter where you are in your journey, may you always find hope in this simple truth: He is your faithful, loving Guide.

Salvation is free, but it’s not cheap. It cost God His Son. It cost Jesus His dignity. In our further study of the layout of the Tabernacle, Dr. McGee points out the symbolism of the gate of the outer court. The three entrances represented Jesus as being the Way, Truth, and Life to the children of Israel as a nation, as individuals, and to us today.

Working for God is fun when you truly know Him. In Exodus 36, notice how the children of Israel worked to build the Tabernacle—the same kind of work they did as slaves in Egypt. Only this time, they were happy to do it. When you know God as loving, forgiving, redeeming Savior, doing His work is the most fulfilling thing in life.

If God truly loves us perfectly, then He must perfectly hate our sin. In Exodus 34, see Jehovah—“merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands”—make another covenant with His people. God reminds the children of Israel that He did not save them because they were superior, but because He loves and cares for them as a jealous God.

Our honesty with God moves His heart more than perfectly worded prayers ever can. Moses’ humble, honest prayer of confession stirred God’s heart to not yet give up on the people of Israel. Exodus 32 teaches us that, if we fail to admit we need God’s presence in our lives, we will forever stay lost in the wilderness.

Remember how the children of Israel were so sure they could keep all the rules? It didn’t take long for them to break the first commandment: “You shall have no other gods before Me.” From what we’ve already learned about grace and the Law, this comes as no surprise. The Israelites blatantly, stubbornly turn their backs on God, leaving us with one question: Will God turn His back on them?

God uses empty hands. In Exodus 29, we see God consecrate Aaron and his sons. Dr. McGee shows us that consecration is “to come to God with empty hands, confess our weakness, our inability, and let God do the rest.” Discover how God uses imperfect, empty-handed Aaron as a symbol of Christ.
