”And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD”.
1 Kings 6:19 KJV
The Inner Sanctuary within The Temple was for housing the Ark of the Covenant of God which was the Presence of Yahweh. The Ark was made in the year that Moses brought the Israelites from the Egyptian bondage. Four hundred and eighty years later Solomon ruled in Jerusalem and he took seven years to build the Temple of God in Jerusalem. The most holy place, or the inner sanctuary housed the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD which was the Presence of Yahweh. Everything in the most holy place was gold plated and everywhere you looked there was pure gold, it was dazzling. The high priest only went once a year to atone for Israel’s sins on the day of atonement. The Lord Jesus Christ made the way, through His Blood Sacrifice to atone for the sins of mankind. Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own Blood He entered the most holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. Now we are brothers and sisters in God’s family because of the Blood of Jesus, and He welcomes us to come into the most holy sanctuary to the very Presence of Yahweh in the heavenly realm—boldly and without hesitation. Thank You Lord Jesus that through You, we come to the Presence of Yahweh. Amen!
