  Exodus chapter 31 Let us pray, Lord our Father, our King, our
• 0:17
  everything, You are worthy. Worthy of all of our attention,
• 0:25
  you are worthy. Worthy of our laid down lives,
• 0:28
  You are worthy. All of our adoration.
• 0:32
  God, we adore you. All of our affection, God, Lord,
• 0:38
  we pulsate towards you. Towards the light we pulsate.
• 0:42
  God, we just want more of you. We only want you.
• 0:47
  We don't care about money. We don't care about our own
• 0:56
  selfish vanity. We lay down pride and
• 0:59
  reputation, God. We don't even care about being
• 1:05
  right, God. We just want you.
• 1:09
  We want a mirror and model your word to this lost and dying
• 1:14
  perverse world, God. All around us, Lord, let us be
• 1:19
  the called out ones. Let us actually look different
• 1:23
  in this world right now for such a time as this.
• 1:26
  God make us into a generation of esters.
• 1:34
  God make us into a generation of Daniels.
• 1:39
  God, I pray that we look different.
• 1:42
  We walk different. Lord, I pray that we speak
• 1:46
  differently. God, I pray that we'll actually
• 1:50
  be effective in the ministry that you've called us into.
• 1:54
  Lord, let there be many who come into the fold through our lives.
• 1:59
  God, being laid down unto you, being yielded unto you, God
• 2:04
  actually being steeped and rooted and grounded in your
• 2:06
  word. God, we only want you.
• 2:08
  We only need you. We desire a touch from you
• 2:12
  today. Let your presence come and
• 2:14
  envelope us. Father, teach us your ways.
• 2:18
  Show up God, show us your glory. God, come and get your glory.
• 2:24
  God, show us more of who you are.
• 2:27
  Father, we want to be found out in the field.
• 2:32
  We want to be found, God doing the work that you've called us
• 2:35
  into. Lord, I pray that you will help
• 2:38
  us to break up the fallow ground.
• 2:40
  Help us to love you more. Help us to be more obedient.
• 2:43
  God, We believe, but help our unbelief.
• 2:46
  Father, we have faith, God, but increase it today.
• 2:50
  Lord. We see, Lord, we see you high
• 2:54
  and lifted up. Lord, bless us today.
• 2:58
  God, I pray that we'll consecrate ourselves.
• 3:02
  We'll get rid of anything and everything that does not belong.
• 3:05
  God, we pray that as we get into you word, Lord, the Holy Spirit
• 3:09
  will reveal to us eternal truths.
• 3:12
  Thank you for saving us to the utmost, as in King Jesus, holy
• 3:17
  and precious and powerful name that I pray.
• 3:20
  Amen. Well, let's start in verse one,
• 3:30
  and the Lord spoke to Moses saying what did he say?
• 3:35
  Let's go to verse 2. See, I've called by name
• 3:40
  Bazahlil, the son of Uri, the son of her of the tribe of
• 3:45
  Judah. So you need to know that this
• 3:47
  Bazahlil, he is in the shadow of God.
• 3:52
  God's got him completely overshadowed with his presence,
• 3:57
  and God's going to supernaturally anoint him with
• 4:01
  wisdom where he's able to actually craft all of the most
• 4:07
  amazing, beautiful specifications that Moses has
• 4:13
  received on the Mount Sinai as he's enveloped in God's presence
• 4:18
  and God's giving him all of the measurements and the dimensions
• 4:22
  and everything to the exact order.
• 4:25
  Here he has supernaturally appointed and anointed Bazalil
• 4:30
  in the shadow of the Most High, and he is of the tribe of Judah,
• 4:36
  where our Lord, our blessed Lord came from.
• 4:39
  And we see is the son of her, who is perhaps Miriam's husband.
• 4:43
  We do not know. 3 And I have filled him with the Spirit of
• 4:46
  God in wisdom and in understanding, and in knowledge,
• 4:51
  and in all manner of workmanship, 4 to devise cunning
• 4:55
  works, to work in gold, in silver, and in brass.
• 5:00
  So it makes sense that a holy God who had called Moses to put
• 5:05
  together this an amazing prototype of what is happening
• 5:09
  in the heavenly realm, that God would supernaturally appoint
• 5:14
  Baza Liv to be able to do the exact things that God has told
• 5:19
  him to do. And do not be surprised today
• 5:22
  friends, when God has called you into something that he
• 5:26
  supernaturally gives you the gifting to be able to pull it
• 5:29
  off. God is so good at what he does.
• 5:33
  5 inning cutting of stones to set them, and in carving of
• 5:38
  timber to work in all manner of workmanship.
• 5:41
  Can you even imagine that God would call this Bazaliel in the
• 5:45
  shadow of himself to be able to do all of the exact
• 5:49
  specifications? 6 And I behold, I have given
• 5:56
  with him Aholiab, the son of Ahashima in the tribe of Dan,
• 6:02
  and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put
• 6:05
  wisdom that they may make all that I have commanded you.
• 6:10
  So this a holy hour. He is the maker of the Father's
• 6:14
  tent, and that is exactly what him and Bazalil is going to do.
• 6:23
  This team is going to make the Father's tent while they rest in
• 6:28
  the shadow of His anointing. 7 The Tabernacle of the
• 6:33
  congregation in the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat
• 6:37
  that is upon it. And all the furniture of the
• 6:40
  Tabernacle ate in the table of his furniture, in the pure
• 6:44
  Candlestick, with all his furniture in the altar of
• 6:47
  incense. 9 And the altar of burnt offerings with his
• 6:50
  furniture, and the lava in his foot. 10 In the clothes of
• 6:54
  service for the holy garments of Aaron, the priests and the
• 6:58
  garments of his sons to minister in the priest's office. 11 and
• 7:03
  the anointing oil in the sweet incense for the holy place,
• 7:06
  according to all that I have commanded you.
• 7:09
  Shall they do so? These team of these two men are
• 7:14
  going to come together and they're going to actually
• 7:18
  perform all of the things that Moses is about to reveal to him
• 7:22
  as he comes down off of the mountain. 12 And the Lord spoke
• 7:28
  to Moses, saying, 13 Speak you also to the children of Israel,
• 7:35
  saying, truly my Sabbaths you shall keep.
• 7:40
  For it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations
• 7:44
  that you may know that I am the Lord that does sanctify ye.
• 7:48
  So here he puts a little claws into the building of the
• 7:53
  Tabernacle and all the work that was going to need to be done
• 7:56
  with the cutting of stones and the cutting of the wood to put
• 8:01
  it all together to make this amazing Tabernacle that God is
• 8:05
  going to come and be well pleased to manifest his presence
• 8:09
  in. He puts this little claws at the
• 8:13
  end of it all and says hey make sure you take a day of rest.
• 8:19
  And he says the same to you and to me friends.
• 8:22
  It does not have to be on a specific day, but we do not need
• 8:27
  to think that seven days of work results in a higher yield.
• 8:32
  That is false. When you take a day to rest, you
• 8:38
  are way more productive on the other six.
• 8:41
  And God designed us that way. He could have designed the human
• 8:45
  body to not need sleep. He could have designed the human
• 8:49
  body to not need rest. We could live all of our days
• 8:54
  out without ever sleeping or eating.
• 8:57
  But it pleased God to create us in the way that He did.
• 9:01
  And it is all specific and for a reason.
• 9:05
  In here, in the context of Israel in the wilderness, it was
• 9:10
  to show them their desperate need for God, that they are not
• 9:16
  autonomous, they are not a law unto themselves.
• 9:20
  They are directly connected to Yahweh who called Abraham out of
• 9:26
  Syria and made a nation unto himself in Egypt.
• 9:30
  And now he has LED them across the Red Sea on dry land, and now
• 9:36
  they are in the wilderness, and he's going to test them.
• 9:40
  And this testing is just the refinement, friends.
• 9:43
  And He does the same in your life and in my life.
• 9:46
  And God does not test us to see what we will do.
• 9:51
  He tests us so that we will see what we will do.
• 9:55
  Never forget that. 14 You shall keep the Sabbath, therefore, for
• 10:04
  it is holy to you. Everyone that defiles it shall
• 10:07
  surely be put to death. For whosoever does any work
• 10:12
  therein the show, the soul shall be cut off from among his
• 10:16
  people. So this was a very strict code
• 10:19
  that God is telling them. He's enacting a very strict
• 10:26
  punishment for those who care nothing for him, who disregard
• 10:31
  all of the reverence for him. 15-6 days may work be done, but
• 10:39
  in the 7th it is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord.
• 10:45
  Whosoever does any work in the Sabbath day, he shall surely be
• 10:49
  put to death. So we are not still held to this
• 10:55
  in the New Testament. We know that any day will do.
• 10:58
  We don't need to get all mixed up on what is the Sabbath and
• 11:03
  why do we worship on Sunday and on and on and on the Jewish
• 11:09
  Roots movement and the denominations that will only
• 11:14
  worship God on a Saturday. Just so you know, Friends, He
• 11:17
  did away with this just like He did away with the dietary
• 11:20
  restrictions. This was to show them that they
• 11:24
  desperately needed Him. And we are here in a new
• 11:29
  covenant, Friends. But it does not disregard, and
• 11:34
  it does not replace the actual factual need of a day of rest.
• 11:43
  16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath,
• 11:48
  to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations,
• 11:51
  for a perpetual covenant. So here God was, wanting them to
• 11:57
  show due reverence in awe and wonder unto a holy God that led
• 12:01
  them across the dry land. 17 It is a sign between me and the
• 12:07
  children of Israel forever. For in six days the Lord made
• 12:11
  heaven and earth, and on the 7th day he rested and was refreshed.
• 12:16
  We know that God is working and still working all the way up to
• 12:20
  this day, but He mirrored and modeled a six day week for us so
• 12:24
  that we could know that there is great importance on the 7th day
• 12:31
  to rest and not think that we need to work our lives away, but
• 12:35
  to actually enjoy God and actually enjoy sitting and
• 12:40
  resting and allowing our bodies to reset and to be refreshed.
• 12:44
  And here He had to give them this right after He gave them
• 12:48
  all of the commandments of all the specifications and all the
• 12:52
  requirements for His manifest presence to come into the
• 12:56
  temple. And God here at the very end of
• 12:58
  it all, He says, hey, make sure you're resting.
• 13:03
  Do not try to do all of this work 7 days.
• 13:07
  Make sure you take a day and do absolutely nothing.
• 13:11
  And he's telling you the same. He's telling me the same.
• 13:15
  Don't work your life away. Don't work seven days a week all
• 13:19
  the time because your ox is in the hole.
• 13:21
  No, take a day friends, and get lateral rest and relax and enjoy
• 13:31
  the presence of God. 18 will end here.
• 13:35
  And he gave unto Moses, when he had made the end of consuming,
• 13:39
  of communing with him upon Mount Sinai. 2 Tables of testimony,
• 13:44
  tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
• 13:47
  Can you even imagine God Almighty, who created
• 13:51
  everything, seen and unseen, who dwells in unapproachable light?
• 13:57
  Can you even see this God, Yahweh Everlasting, who is
• 14:04
  Spirit, writing upon the stone tablets that Moses is going to
• 14:11
  carry down to a scene that we're not prepared to see yet?
• 14:16
  I hope you've been blessed by this amazing chapter in God's
• 14:19
  Word. I know I sure have.
• 14:21
  I'm praying for every single one of you.
• 14:24
  I love you. We'll see you back here
• 14:27
  tomorrow. God bless you.
