Kingdom Foreshadowed Part 10 Devotionals

Day 1: Access to the Throne Room

Devotional Despite our brokenness, God has given us access to His throne room. This is a profound privilege that we often take for granted. In the Old Testament, only the high priest could enter the Holy of Holies, and that too, only once a year. But through Jesus, we have direct access to God at any time. This access is not just a physical one but a spiritual connection that allows us to commune with our Creator. Reflect on the significance of this access and how it impacts your daily life.

Bible Verse John 1:14 – The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Reflection Question How does knowing you have direct access to God through Jesus change the way you approach your daily challenges?

Prayer Lord, thank You for granting me access to Your throne room. Help me to never take this privilege for granted and to seek Your presence daily. Amen.

Day 2: Created to Be Priests

Devotional God created humanity to be priests in His garden temple. This means we are called to be mediators between God and the world, reflecting His glory and love. Adam and Eve had the choice to follow God’s will or their own, and we face similar choices every day. Our role as priests is to choose God’s way and to help others see His love through our actions.

Bible Verse Genesis 1:27 – So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

Reflection Question In what ways can you act as a mediator of God’s love and glory in your daily interactions?

Prayer Father, help me to live out my calling as a priest in Your creation. May my actions reflect Your love and draw others closer to You. Amen.

Day 3: The Cosmic Temple

Devotional The world is not just a physical space but a cosmic temple where heaven and earth meet. This perspective changes how we view our surroundings and our role in them. We are part of God’s grand design, and our mission is to bring His rescuing glory into every corner of creation. This means being mindful of how we treat the environment, our communities, and each other.

Bible Verse Genesis 1:1 – In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Reflection Question How does viewing the world as God’s cosmic temple influence your actions and decisions?

Prayer Creator God, open my eyes to see the world as Your cosmic temple. Help me to honor and care for Your creation in all that I do. Amen.

Day 4: Jesus, Our Tabernacle

Devotional Jesus came to dwell among us, to be our tabernacle. He is the living Word who was with God in the beginning and came to be in our midst. This means we can encounter the presence of God through Jesus. He is our mediator, our connection to the divine. Reflect on the significance of Jesus tabernacling among us and how it impacts your relationship with God.

Bible Verse John 1:14 – The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Reflection Question What does it mean to you that Jesus came to dwell among us, and how does it affect your daily walk with Him?

Prayer Jesus, thank You for coming to dwell among us. Help me to seek Your presence and to grow in my relationship with You. Amen.

Day 5: Our Mission

Devotional Our mission is to partner with God to bring His rescuing glory into every corner of creation. This is not just a task but a calling that gives our lives purpose and direction. We are part of God’s ultimate rescue plan, and our actions can make a difference in the world. Reflect on how you can actively participate in this mission and bring God’s love and glory to those around you.

Bible Verse Exodus 40:34-35 – Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.

Reflection Question How can you actively participate in God’s mission to bring His rescuing glory into every corner of creation?

Prayer Lord, thank You for giving me a mission and a purpose. Help me to partner with You in bringing Your glory to the world. Amen.
