It must be constructed in the place where it cost us… very important! 2Chr: 3: 1 "The Threshing Floor of Ornan the Jebusite!"

THE THRESHING FLOOR of ORNAN the JEBUSITE

There must be duly appointed leadership, functioning in unity! 2 Chr: 5: 2 - 5

There must be a full understanding of the issues surrounding the contents of the Ark.

ISSUES of the CONTENTS of the ARK

The missing golden pot of manna - This was a type of the revelation of God. Matt: 4:4 this was given to deal with issue of murmuring. Murmuring must cease for the Glory of God to manifest. Ex: 16: 1 - 13, 32

The next missing item was Aaron's rod that budded. This was a type of God's authority. Aaron's rod was as a direct result of murmuring and a fight for position and struggle for authority. Num: 16: 1 - 35. All authority is now in Christ. Matt: 28: 18

The two tables of the law represented the moral code by which the children of Israel would live. That was the reason those were not taken out, they were to act as our schoolmaster until Christ. Gal: 3: 24

God hid the revelation of Himself and the issues of authority in Christ. Jesus declared to be the true manna that came down from heaven: - John: 6: 22 - 65 Rev: 2: 17 (another issue of murmuring again)

Jesus promises us that all issues of authority are now in Him, and all we need to do is overcome the issues of the world, the flesh and the devil; and it’s ours. Rev: 2: 26 - 27; Rev: 3: 21
