THEME: THERE IS YET A THRONE
TEXT: Exodus 25:10-22; 37:1-9; Psalm 11:4; 47:8; Isaiah 6:1-5; 66:1 Hebrews 4:14-16; 8:1; 12:2; Revelation 4:2-11
This end-of-the-year retreat theme, “THERE IS YET A THRONE”, is one that should suggest before anything is said about it, that no one among us should be dismayed, discouraged, frustrated or back out despite whatever it is that may befall anyone. This is because, THERE IS A THRONE FROM WHERE ALL THINGS VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE ARE CONTROLLED; A THRONE WHICH IS CONCERNED ABOUT US.
It therefore follows that we must all look away from whatever problems that may have assailed us hitherto; whatever gene issues may have refused to leave us; whatever psychological conditions we may have been into all this while; whatever disappointments we may have suffered hitherto; or whatever health, economic, spiritual, relationship and/or otherwise conditions we may have been grappling with. We must at this time and henceforth instead LOOK TO THAT THRONE THAT CONTROLS ALL THINGS (Hebrews 4:14-16).
Now, let us launch our nets into the deep for a great haul (Luke 5:4-5). We shall first look back to the Old Testament and then come forward to the New.
1) THERE WAS A THRONE FOR THE CHURCH IN THE WILDERNESS (Exodus 25:10-22; 37:1-9)
Before proceeding to x-ray the THRONE that was for the church in the wilderness (Israel on their way through the wilderness to Canaan land), let us first acquaint ourselves with the meaning of the THRONE we are talking about here.
The THRONE in the context of this message means “The abode of God Almighty in the Third Heavens”. HERE HE SITS ON HIS SOVEREIGN SEAT ETERNALLY, AND FROM WHERE HE RULES, REIGNS AND CONTROLS ALL THINGS VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE (Psalm 11:4; 47:8; Isaiah 6:1-5). Now, to the THRONE that was in the wilderness.
