Jayamsih..! Welcome to today’s devotion
Beaten seat of grace
Exodus 25:17-18
For the advancement of a believer, for the effectiveness of a pastor, for the life of a believer with God, the main thing is related to the umbrella. If God could show us, in His wisdom, the back of our lives, He would show us this reality and say that this is what happened. If someone does not have a proper umbrella, if there is an obstacle, then there will be many internal problems, if not corrected, the result will be special difficulties in the long run.
Husbands need to know how to be an umbrella. Unmarried people need to know how to cover their children. Most of all, pastors need to know how to be an umbrella for those in their congregations. This subject of umbrellas is something that Satan really fights with. If we, as believers, learn the lessons of the umbrellas God has appointed and are devoted to them, we will discover the priceless treasures we have in Jesus our Redeemer.
Kripa Ashan is for us. It is not for the devil or the angels, because they are not under this umbrella. This mercy seat made of pure gold is only for us, who live on this earth as human beings with a fallen nature. It is this mercy seat made of beaten gold that shows a beautiful picture of how Jesus Christ had to be tested on all points, and beaten by men and go through the judgment of the Father for the sins of humanity. He was shaped by grace, learning obedience through the hardships he experienced.
