The outside of the tabernacle wasn't much to look at. It was made with goats hair! It was probably nothing special to look at at. But inside it was beautiful; everything was gold and arrayed with blue,purple, linen... Just like us real ugly on the outside but the real beauty is inside of us -- Jesus.
The antichrist (King of tyrus a type of him) is said to be perfect in beauty. On the outside only. But full of wickedness within.
When we enter the outercourt we make a sacrifice ; confess our sins.
A continual burnt offering there was; pray without ceasing.
We wash our hands in the laver; we allow God's forgiveness and blood to make us clean.
Then we go in the holy place:
The bread; Reading of God's word daily. Quote promises be thankful.
Candlestick; renewing of our spirit.
Altar of Incense; our prayers are a sweet smelling sacrifice.
The Holy of Holies; Jesus who maketh intercession for us.
Psalms 29:2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
There is beauty in holiness that comes from within. Only when we confess our sins and allow the blood to wash us white can we be holy. And that is beautiful because it reflects all of God's love and faithfulness. And it begins by prayer.
