Gene taught "The Secret Place of the Most High" May 3–4, 2014 in Canberra, Australia.
This study is intended to use the Tabernacle of the wilderness as an object lesson of the Person and work of Christ. Each article of the Tabernacle speaks of another aspect of His gracious provisions for those who trust in Him. Since we cannot utilize what we do not know we have, this study brings to light what it means to live by faith. In essence, the Tabernacle, seen as a diagram, is a map to the greatest hidden treasure of all time—living in the presence of God Almighty. Our careful study of this topic will be richly rewarded as we, "walk by faith, not by sight," 2Co 5:7.
"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
shall abide in the shadow of the Almighty." Psa 91:1
 

Lessons from the Tabernacle on Abiding in Christ – Canberra 2014

The Divine Mentor #5

Psa 23:1-6 He is our Shepard -- we have a personal relationship with Him (Heb 12:1). No matter how we get wounded He has purpose (Job. 5:8-19). "..though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I'll fear no evil". We meet our fears with faith (Psa 56:3). We fear no evil because: (1) God works all things together for our good if we love Him (Rom 8:28, Gen 50:20); (2) 1Co 10:13 says there is no trial too great for us to bear; (3) 1Pe 1:6-9 says every trial can purify our faith; (4) Rom 8:31 and Rom 8:37 say that all sufferings are designed for blessing; (5) Eph 6:10-18 says if we are dressed in the armor of God; (6) 1Pe 3:13-15 those that follow good cannot be harmed. "for You are with me". Jesus Christ will never turn His back on us (Heb 13:5-6, Rom 8:38-39); we have His Spirit in us as evidence. Psa 84:5-12 - Blessed are we whose strength is Him, and whose heart is set on being with God (1Pe 2:11). The experience of believers (Psa 84:7) is "strength to strength", "faith to faith", and from "glory to glory" (2Co 3:18, 2Co 4:16-17). Psa 23:4 "Your rod and staff comfort me" refers to protection and discipline (Heb 12:5-11).

From Series: "The Divine Mentor"

The Divine Mentor is God the Holy Spirit. God answered Jesus' prayer to provide us the Spirit not just to be with us but in us -- to pray with us labor with us to guide us teach us and equip us -- the goal being that we'd be prepared for the troubled times in which we live.
