REVELATION 4:11 THOU ART WORTHY, O LORD, TO RECEIVE GLORY AND HONOUR AND POWER: FOR THOU HAST CREATED ALL THINGS, AND FOR THY PLEASURE THEY ARE AND WERE CREATED.

ACTS 15:16 16 AFTER THESE THINGS I WILL RETURN, AND I WILL REBUILD THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID WHICH HAS FALLEN, AND I WILL REBUILD ITS RUINS, AND I WILL RESTORE IT, 17 SO THAT THE REST OF MANKIND MAY SEEK THE LORD, AND ALL THE GENTILES WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME,’

TABERNACLE IS DERIVED FROM HEBREW WORDS OHEL OR MISHKAN: TENT RESIDENCE BOOTH DWELLING PLACE

IN THE OLD TESTAMENT WORSHIP REVOLVES AROUND: SACRIFICES/OFFERINGS FEASTS THE PRIESTHOOD THE LAW

THE TABERNACLE OF MOSES

THE HIGH PRIEST

IN THE OLD TESTAMENT WORSHIP WAS NOT A SIMPLE MATTER

THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID

1 CHRONICLES 15 1 NOW DAVID BUILT HOUSES FOR HIMSELF IN THE CITY OF DAVID; AND HE PREPARED A PLACE FOR THE ARK OF GOD AND PITCHED A TENT FOR IT. 2 THEN DAVID SAID, “NO ONE IS TO CARRY THE ARK OF GOD BUT THE LEVITES; FOR THE LORD CHOSE THEM TO CARRY THE ARK OF GOD AND TO MINISTER TO HIM FOREVER.” 3 AND DAVID ASSEMBLED ALL ISRAEL AT JERUSALEM TO BRING UP THE ARK OF THE LORD TO ITS PLACE WHICH HE HAD PREPARED FOR IT.

1 CHRONICLES SO THE PRIESTS AND THE LEVITES CONSECRATED THEMSELVES TO BRING UP THE ARK OF THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL. 15 THE SONS OF THE LEVITES CARRIED THE ARK OF GOD ON THEIR SHOULDERS WITH THE POLES THEREON, AS MOSES HAD COMMANDED ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF THE LORD.16 THEN DAVID SPOKE TO THE CHIEFS OF THE LEVITES TO APPOINT THEIR RELATIVES THE SINGERS, WITH INSTRUMENTS OF MUSIC, HARPS, LYRES, LOUD- SOUNDING CYMBALS, TO RAISE SOUNDS OF JOY.

1 CHRONICLES NOW DAVID WAS CLOTHED WITH A ROBE OF FINE LINEN WITH ALL THE LEVITES WHO WERE CARRYING THE ARK, AND THE SINGERS AND CHENANIAH THE LEADER OF THE SINGING WITH THE SINGERS. DAVID ALSO WORE AN EPHOD OF LINEN. 28 THUS ALL ISRAEL BROUGHT UP THE ARK OF THE COVENANT OF THE LORD WITH SHOUTING, AND WITH SOUND OF THE HORN, WITH TRUMPETS, WITH LOUD-SOUNDING CYMBALS, WITH HARPS AND LYRES.

1 CHRONICLES IT HAPPENED WHEN THE ARK OF THE COVENANT OF THE LORD CAME TO THE CITY OF DAVID, THAT MICHAL THE DAUGHTER OF SAUL LOOKED OUT OF THE WINDOW AND SAW KING DAVID LEAPING AND CELEBRATING; AND SHE DESPISED HIM IN HER HEART.

WORSHIP IS INCLUSIVE NOT EXCLUSIVE

1 CHRONICLES 15 3 AND DAVID ASSEMBLED ALL ISRAEL AT JERUSALEM TO BRING UP THE ARK OF THE LORD TO ITS PLACE WHICH HE HAD PREPARED FOR IT. 28 THUS ALL ISRAEL BROUGHT UP THE ARK OF THE COVENANT OF THE LORD

HEBREWS 4:16 SO LET US COME BOLDLY TO THE THRONE OF OUR GRACIOUS GOD. THERE WE WILL RECEIVE HIS MERCY, AND WE WILL FIND GRACE TO HELP US WHEN WE NEED IT MOST.

WORSHIP IS EXPRESSIVE NOT PASSIVE

1 CHRONICLES THEN DAVID SPOKE TO THE CHIEFS OF THE LEVITES TO APPOINT THEIR RELATIVES THE SINGERS, WITH INSTRUMENTS OF MUSIC, HARPS, LYRES, LOUD- SOUNDING CYMBALS, TO RAISE SOUNDS OF JOY. 28 THUS ALL ISRAEL BROUGHT UP THE ARK OF THE COVENANT OF THE LORD WITH SHOUTING, AND WITH SOUND OF THE HORN, WITH TRUMPETS, WITH LOUD- SOUNDING CYMBALS, WITH HARPS AND LYRES.

WORSHIP IS PERSONAL NOT A RITUAL

1 CHRONICLES SO THE PRIESTS AND THE LEVITES CONSECRATED THEMSELVES TO BRING UP THE ARK OF THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL. 15 THE SONS OF THE LEVITES CARRIED THE ARK OF GOD ON THEIR SHOULDERS WITH THE POLES THEREON, AS MOSES HAD COMMANDED ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF THE LORD..

1 CHRONICLES NOW DAVID WAS CLOTHED WITH A ROBE OF FINE LINEN WITH ALL THE LEVITES WHO WERE CARRYING THE ARK, AND THE SINGERS AND CHENANIAH THE LEADER OF THE SINGING WITH THE SINGERS. DAVID ALSO WORE AN EPHOD OF LINEN.

“THE PRIESTHOOD OF ALL BELIEVERS” MARTIN LUTHER

WORSHIP IS A PRIVILEGE NOT AN OBLIGATION

1 CHRONICLES IT HAPPENED WHEN THE ARK OF THE COVENANT OF THE LORD CAME TO THE CITY OF DAVID, THAT MICHAL THE DAUGHTER OF SAUL LOOKED OUT OF THE WINDOW AND SAW KING DAVID LEAPING AND CELEBRATING; AND SHE DESPISED HIM IN HER HEART.

JESUS IS THE TRUE TABERNACLE THE GREAT HIGH PRIEST THE PERFECT SACRIFICE
