Episode 33 The Tabernacle of David

[00:00:00] Drew: Hey, welcome to the Eyes on Jesus podcast with Drew and Tim and happy new year. Happy 2024 I hope so far it’s going well for you And I hope you’ve had time to check out our last episode that was on new year’s resolutions If you haven’t make sure after you listen to this episode that you go back and check that out.

But today really looking forward to our conversation Tim, for those of you that don’t know, Tim’s an incredible, not just communicator, but he’s also an incredible writer and he has many times done books and devotions and you version Bible plans, and he has a brand new you version Bible plan that’s out right now.

And so we want to talk to Tim about that. Not only because I personally want to find out how this guy just keeps doing this kind of stuff, because I, I. Just got to figure it out. And also I think that this not just the conversation, but I think the Bible plan is an opportunity to really bless you in this new season and new year.

And if you’re looking for, Hey, a new year’s resolution, and I want to talk to God more and I want to spend more time in my Bible. Like we want to resource you to do that, not just to start in a general way, but to give you specific ways to get that going. So all that being said, Tim, I’m really, Excited to dive into this.

I’ve already started this Bible plan. I’ve already, I haven’t moved through the whole thing, but I’ve been going through it daily. I’ve even invited my friend that I go to the gym with. I’ve invited him on it. We’re going to do this together. And I’m really looking forward to unpacking unpacking even more learning even more, but just to start us off, maybe give us an overview of what this Bible plan is, what may be you know, not too many details, but at least enough to kind of tease it a little bit.

And then I’d love to, after that, get into unpacking, like how you even came about it. So yeah, tell us a little bit about it.

[00:01:56] Tim: Yeah. And. Thanks, Drew, for allowing me to say this. I know this is our podcast, but when we talk about ideas, like I never want to push the stuff I’m doing and I just mentioned it like, Hey, I could mention it like at the beginning.

And you’re like, let’s do an episode

[00:02:07] Drew: on, I was like, we have to. Yeah. Well, and it’s just, you know, look, man, I’ve, you know, I did the first first couple of days of it and was just like, man, this is great content. It’s really good. It gets you thinking it’s very organized. I’ve read a lot of things that you’ve.

Yeah. Written previously. I’ve heard you speak. I mean, you know, I’ve told you this before, but I really enjoy doing this podcast because I honestly, I really enjoy talking to you and I really enjoy learning from you. I feel like there’s so much depth just in you and. And I think the more we can unpack that, the better.

So for you to put in so much effort and so much time into putting a plan together, I think, man let’s get that out there. Let’s let people know about it. So I’m thrilled, man. I’m excited about it.

[00:02:52] Tim: And for me, and maybe this isn’t the case for everyone, the worst part about writing and doing this kind of stuff is to have to promote it and be like, Hey, check out this cool thing, right?

I hate that. Like, I honestly hate it a little bit. I wish I could just write something and just be like, everyone finds it somehow. Right. And then hopefully it blesses them. If they don’t want to read it, that’s great. But that’s the hardest part about getting on social media and trying to push your own stuff because we know the people that are on social media all the time pushing their stuff and they’re cringe.

And so I don’t want to be cringe. I want to make sure that, Hey, if you find value in this, check it out. And this is why I wrote it. I think you’ll find value. And if you don’t, great. That’s kind of how I’ve And funny story. When I first started discerning dad ministry in 2018 online website, I would write blogs and I would just sign it discerning dad.

I would never use my name. I never did video at the time, like for social media. So no one knew it was me. It was strictly a blog by discerning dad. And so actually it was my mom who’s now in heaven and she was pushing me to, you have to use your name. People need to know it’s you and blah, blah, blah. He’s like, mom, I don’t want to do that.

Right. And so, It came to the, my first book and you can’t just. Leave your name off of a book.

[00:03:59] Drew: Yeah, you guys should check out this book by discerning. dad.

[00:04:03] Tim: And so anyway, that kind of led to me like, all right, fine. I’ll put my name on it. And then, and now it is what it is if God uses it.

Great. So anyway, that’s the little bit of history of me and writing, but. I don’t love to write. And so when I do write, it’s usually something very intentional. It’s usually something that I’ve been dealing with or wrestling with or learning about for months. And I usually sit on some things for a while.

I haven’t blogged lately. I think my last blog was early last year. And for the most part, when I do write, it’s usually something that’s like already been fleshed out and already like has some legs. I don’t just kind of write. You know, whatever just comes to mind, just in order to get the blog done for the week.

And so for me this topic, and I’ll throw it up here on the screen. If you’re on video, Tabernacle of David, 10 day plan on the YouVersion Bible app. And there’s a link in the show notes as well to it. This particularly was something that I really don’t take a lot of credit for it because I read a lot of other books about this and I want to give so certain names, Lee Cummings, Billy Humphrey, Tyler Staton and Matthew Lilly, like those four people right there have written about this subject in one form or another.

One was like a chapter in a book and one was an entire book. One was like a blog. But anyway those four men have really. opened my eyes to this topic. And the reason I wrote a U version Bible plan is cause there was no Bible plan on this topic at all. And so I’m like, well, I have info now and I have an account where I can write these things.

And so why not put this out there for everybody? Because I think it’s a very important topic. And as I’m reading these other books, I actually preached about this early last year too, to my church, because this is a topic that. I was not fully aware of it’s a topic that I think most people when you hear the tabernacle of David, you don’t necessarily know what it’s referring to.

You might have an idea. Right. There’s a couple of quotes that I liked is Methodist minister George Smith in the mid 19th century. So 1800s, he said, it’s scArkely possible to find a more neglected or more important portion of scriptural inquiry than this. And also Kevin Connor, who wrote one of the first books on the tabernacle of David in the 1970s.

He said that when he first heard about this topic, he said, quote, I did not even know that David had a tabernacle. So there you go. This is something that it. You know, you will understand parts of this story as we talk about Saul and David and the temple and the Ark of the Covenant. I mean, those parts people will know if they just read the Bible, but how it’s all connected is something that’s really interesting.

And so when I start off like my Bible Plan talking about this, we have to start with Amos, who the prophet, the book in your Bible, if you’ve never read the book of Amos. And the book of Amos starts with prophecy about Judea and Israel. And the very last chapter talks about upcoming judgment, but also a hope for the future.

And in Chapter nine versus 1 11 through 12, it says on that day, I will raise up the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down and repair its damages. I will raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old and all the Gentiles who are called by my name says the Lord who does this thing. And so that leads us to the fact that when you read something like that, a prophetic word and Amos, you have to ask yourself, what is it talking about?

What is the tabernacle of David that will be rebuilt up again? And so we have to fast forward 800 years to the book of Acts in Acts 15. We have the Jerusalem council, which is. A bunch of people that got together, leaders in the church at the time, talking about if Gentiles should be accepted as Christians, basically, should we accept them?

Because Paul and Barnabas were going around to different places and Gentiles were converting at record numbers. And so they meet and say, should we force basically Gentiles to be circumcised like us? anD so anyway. Read Acts 15. It goes through a bunch of people shared their ideas about this.

And then finally, James, the brother of Jesus, offered the commentary by saying he quoted that same passage from Amos. He said, after this, I will rebuild David’s fallen tent or tabernacle, its ruins. I will rebuild and I will restore it. So the question is, why did Amos, why did James choose Amos 9? Out of all the prophets of the Old Testament to talk about this issue of Gentiles, because the issue at hand is Gentiles.

Should they be circumcised? Why would James choose Amos nine about the tent and tabernacle of David as? As his point in the matter, right? Yeah. So anyway, that’s the kind of the setup for this as we go from Amos to James to Acts to talk about the tent, the tabernacle of David. So I love it.

[00:08:39] Drew: Everything you’re saying. I just know, like, I know our listeners right now are going, okay, wait a minute. Tabernacle of David. Did I know there was a tabernacle of David? Just like you said, like, did you really know that there was one? And then, like, Amos, how’s that connected to Acts?

And then how’s that and so it’s a great tease because what our listeners should really be wondering is, like, how is this all? What does this all mean? Why is this valuable? Why is

[00:09:04] Tim: this important today is the main thing. This is not just talking about a story of David, right? All the Bible’s important of course, but like, what does this actually mean for us today?

And that’s really the culmination of this whole thing is important today for us and for our churches and for our ministries. There’s a huge part of this that I’ll share towards the end, but why this all matters and. When we talk about the tabernacle of David, oftentimes this is interpreted as the generational line of David, but this word specifically that’s used in the Bible is sukkah or literally a tent as opposed to like the root of David.

So oftentimes we see the root of David used in places like Revelation 22 16 talking about the root of Jesse or David’s father and. A generational line oftentimes refers to the coming King, which we know Jesus came out of the generational line of David. And so Jesus is out of the root of David, but not necessarily out of the tent of David, which is a different as a tent.

And so when we look at this, it’s oftentimes, well, it has to be his generational line or something different is David operated as a King and he also operated as a priest. Which is unheard of for kings at that time. They were kingly. You had your priests that sacrificed and worshiped God. But you know, the two didn’t really intertwine.

David had a kingly leadership. He also had priestly leadership because he would dance before God with priestly garments on when God was glorified as king coming into Jerusalem. And so we see both of these. And what we see with the tent of David is the fact that this is the priestly succession of David to today, not just the kingly succession of David, which is in Jesus.

And so it’s both and not either or. It’s both the priest and the kingly succession of David today, which we find in Jesus. And we find through Our high priest, Jesus, and also the fact that we are kings and priests before God through Jesus and the work of the cross that we are able to enter into quote the holy of holies now by having the Holy Spirit inside of us and we are the temple, which is a New Testament reality

[00:11:17] Drew: wow, that’s awesome. So let me ask you this when you’re creating this content when you’re diving into it what’s kind of the method to your madness? I mean, it’s you know, like you said there’s not a lot of topics Around this there’s not a lot of plans on this. There’s not a lot of people really like hey You know, let’s talk about tabernacle of david And there’s certainly not a lot of sermons.

I mean, you even mentioned that you’re, you preached on this a couple months back and that link’s going to be provided in the show notes, but like, how did you decide to go after this, tackle this? And what was kind of the method in getting to that place?

[00:11:54] Tim: Yeah, I think it’s a couple of things that happened last year.

We were at a conference in Atlanta which we’re going again in February to Billy Humphrey’s church, Gate City. And so they have a presence driven church leadership conference. And the goal of that conference is to help church leaders understand that we have to minister directly to Jesus first before we minister to other people.

Because when we minister to other people out of ourselves to do ministry, we can easily become burned out and using our own strength as opposed to having that time where you minister to God first and you get filled up from him. And then you can go and deliver whatever you need to in ministry to other people.

And that was the whole focus of the conference. And so, they had a 24 seven prayer room there. It was awesome to go in and just kind of be a part of a prayer room, not having one locally where I’m at. However, we hope. To have one at our church here soon to really have a place where people can pray at all times because just as the Old Testament priests that were told that the fire there was not to be put out ever to keep the fire going.

There is something special about having a constant state of prayer in. churches that are supposed to be considered a house of prayer. And to at least have it as a foundational piece of your church, whether or not it happens 24 seven to at least have a foundational aspect of your church being the prayer is what we do.

It’s not just a piece. It’s not just a ministry for the prayer team. It is integrated in all of our ministries, meaning that it’s led by pastors and leaders and congregants as well. Both will request prayer and also give prayer. It’s a It’s something that oftentimes you look at. Okay, that’s for the altar workers.

That’s just for the pastors. It’s just for certain people that are taught how to pray. No prayer is something for the entire body of the church and by having a church that’s fully operating in prayer. So that means that if you have youth on Wednesdays, if you have a men’s small group that meets that prayer is a key part of those activities, if you will, meaning they don’t neglect it.

They put That is a first thing before they go and do whatever activity they’re going to do. They make sure that they pray. I mean, we do airsoft here in Arizona. We have a quote ministry where we invite people out and do airsoft. It’s kind of grown organically, but we have people that never go to church to come to play airsoft, meet the pastors.

And then like, Hey, I’ll come to your church happens over and over. And we pray in that, like before we start, we pray that we won’t get hurt or have something poke our eye out. And so just all that to say, like, as you. Invest in this topic. The this is really the heart of it. The heart is that we become a praying people, a praying church, and that we directly minister like the priest would minister to God.

They wouldn’t minister to the people. They wouldn’t minister really in front of the people. If you think about it, I mean, they would do sacrifices, you know, with the people there and stuff, but the right that they would go right. Yeah, especially the high priest. Their main job is to go to the Holy Holies once a year, and they would minister to God, right?

That was their job description. And now that we have Jesus, who is a great high priest who goes before God who, who intercesses for us. Just think about that. What that looks like that our prayers go to heaven and Jesus is there with the father Considering our prayers, you know, the Bible even talks about during the silence of heaven in Revelation 9 I believe is that all the prayers of the Saints will be poured out as judgment all the prayers every prayer Right.

What does that even mean or look like? How does a prayer turn into a lightning bolt? Like, I don’t understand, but I know that none of our prayers are wasted. Not a single prayer of ours is wasted before God. They’re all considered. It might be a yes. It might be a no, it might be a not yet, but our prayers are so important and they are incense before God, which I think is beautiful.

[00:15:37] Drew: It is beautiful. And you’re right they’re incense before God. There’s that depiction in revelation of him in the throne room in inhaling and breathing in like incense, our prayers. I love that. So you obviously write this you know, a lot about it. Here’s what I would be interested in.

What’s one thing while you were doing this that you learned or like, what’s one thing while you were doing the study that you were like, Oh man, yeah. That really causes me to pause and change my perspective and really start having like some deep thought about that topic.

[00:16:15] Tim: Yeah. I think it has a lot to do with David’s heart.

 A part of the story is as we walk through this, what’s the importance of the Ark of the covenant and then how Saul failed as King and how David was selected, really the selection of David. It’s something that is. Not man’s doing. It was not even David’s doing like he was selected thing, but God saw something unique in him to carry forth to carry into his kingdom that Saul didn’t have and God gave Saul a chance because the people demanded a king.

[00:16:48] Tim: God was the king, but the people demanded Saul be their king. And God even warned them, Hey, if I give you a king, he’s going to enslave your kids. He’s going to bring war and destruction. Do you really want this? And the people said, yes. And the reason why, because they wanted to look like other nations was their reason.

So God’s like, fine, I’ll give you a king. And God gave them a king that looked like them. Saul was like the Instagram model. He was a head foot taller than everyone else. He was well built. But when his ceremony came out, he was actually hiding in the supplies in the back, which I love that verse. If you read it, I’ve missed it for many years.

He was hiding among like the luggage in the back when Samuel, the prophet is like, okay, here’s your King Saul. And now he’s literally hiding in the back, which shows you like Man, this is someone who had all the stuff going for him, had all the qualifications the world puts on what a king should be, but his heart was not fully devoted to God, which came to David because of his time in the wilderness and his time tending sheep in fighting for his father’s sheep.

David learned that God was his God, which is how he was able to face Goliath, because, hey, if my God can deliver me from the lion and the bear. Then you can deliver me from this giant. You can deliver me from this giant. And so David had that assurance in who his God was where Saul didn’t have that.

Now, Saul had an anointing and the Holy Spirit came upon him and even said that Saul prophesied with other prophets when he was anointed and selected. And so Saul had he saw pieces of it, but he didn’t cultivate that intimacy that came through the wilderness, which came to David after then Saul, the anointing left Saul, he’s demonically possessed David plays for him.

And now he’s going to go try to kill David for 16 years while David’s in the wilderness. And what we see during that time is David’s heart. When he’s facing death, he’s already been anointed. Doesn’t know what Like really, if that’s going to come, God, is this going to happen? But he trusts God and his desire for God comes through in the Psalms when he says, I don’t even, I desire you more than even like water saying that in a desert is crazy, but that came through in David Psalms.

And so we see the heart of David. And I think back to your question, like, that’s 1 thing that stands out is that understanding. That we see that whole story now with just perfect vision, looking at the Bible, knowing like, all right, David, you’re going to get through this. Just wait a few more years and Saul will die, in the moment.

You have to kind of put your, I put my mindset in like, what was it like for David in like year one of Saul trying to kill him after he was, you know, one of the people that killed Goliath and was brought to the palace to, to play for Saul? What was it like?

[00:19:24] Drew: People were cheering in the streets for David. I mean, this guy was a hero.

[00:19:28] Tim: Yeah, that was another reason that Saul was envious is because Saul has killed his thousands. David is ten thousands, right? And right and so but David never wavered on his heart for God and He could have done all kinds of stuff in the wilderness but that was a testing season that got him to the point and this is the point in the story with the tabernacle is that So the Ark of the Covenant was neglected by Saul And I point this out.

I won’t go into detail, but the Ark of the Covenant was neglected by Saul, David’s first thing when he comes into be king. So he’s king of Judah for a few years when he finally takes over Jerusalem, which is it was then known as the city of David. It’s still known as the city of David today. Still the capital of Israel, which is amazing.

After David takes over Jerusalem, his first response. So you’re a brand new king. You’ve been on the run. What would your first response as king be? You know, let’s say a world of king. What would they want to do first now that they have all this power? And now that they’ve just been on the run for that many years goodness

[00:20:27] Drew: I mean, I don’t know.

I mean nowadays the first thing they want to do is overturn everything that’s gone on in the previous regime Yeah, but if you’ve been on the run, yeah, I mean like that’s what you

[00:20:37] Tim: would want to do, right? Yeah you live it up. You know, worldly pleasures. You might plan your succession. You might plan military campaigns.

You might plan an economical campaign on how to help people with food and wealth. The first thing I’m

[00:20:51] Drew: certainly going to live nice, right? If I’ve been on the run, like I’m going to live nice. I’m going to have me some food, some drink, like, and that’s kind of the. The deal. Yeah. So what is the first thing that

[00:21:01] Tim: David did?

The first thing David did is that he says, let’s go get the Ark for it was neglected during the time of Saul. So the Ark of the Covenant was brought out to battle. This is another amazing story, which I actually might write a book on because I wrote a blog on this is they brought out the Ark of the Covenant to battle.

The Israelites did. This was before Saul. They brought out the Ark without seeking God. They just brought the Ark out as like a good luck charm against the Philistines. They brought it out as a good luck charm. They didn’t seek God. They didn’t even ask if he would give them victory. They brought it out and guess what?

The Ark was captured by the Philistines. And so the Ark of God, like God’s power. Resting upon the ark. God allowed it to be captured by the Philistines because he’s nobody’s idol. He’s nobody’s like tool for battle. Right? God is right is holy and needs to be reverenced. Right? And so God allowed for a time for the ark to be captured by the Philistines.

This is in 1st Samuel 6 1st Samuel 4, And then through six, and then the Philistines were, you know, had plagues, all this kind of stuff. They’re like, we don’t want this anymore. Let’s send it back. And so they send it back, they send it back, but then it only makes it to a certain town, not to the, not to where the the city is the king was.

And so Israel just abandoned it. They’re like, we don’t know what to do with this. We don’t want it. And so it stayed there for years and years through the reign of Saul. And that’s David’s first thing is to say, Let’s go get the Ark of God because it was abandoned during the day of Saul. And so what you see again in David is that desire for the presence of God.

Because remember, we have the presence of God today through the Holy Spirit. But back then the Ark of the Covenant signified the presence of God. Presence of God. So the very first thing that David could even long for is I want the presence of God back in the city that he’s given me victory from.

[00:22:51] Drew: That’s fantastic.

That’s fantastic. Yeah I’m ready. I’m pumped now. Like I was excited before, but now I’m like even more looking forward to this study. That’s a great it’s a great depiction of what’s coming in the study, but also just out of the gate here, a great lesson that we can take as we’re listening.

Like, oh man, it’s. So David’s for a man after God’s own heart. His first responsibility was to be in the presence of God. His first act of authority was to be in the presence of God. He wanted that for himself. He wanted that for others. And that’s really encouraging. I also love what you mentioned about the text in Psalms where he says, you know, in the desert, I long for God more than.

Water, you know, and the depiction of being in the desert and having that thought it really puts put some probably humbles some people today as they’re listening to this. And we recognize all the things that we chase and all the things that we run after and really what we should be focused on is the presence of God.

[00:23:49] Tim: Yeah really good. And this whole story culminates in the fact that, you know, this was this whole thing was a New Testament reality in Old Testament times. And what I mean by that is that as we talked about an Acts, remember with James talking about the tabernacle of David, that in response to the fact that Gentiles are now part of us, like, we don’t have to require them to be circumcised.

This is what was prophesied by Amos is that Gentiles will be allowed . Into the presence of God. What we see was a glimpse of this because the Ark of the Covenant had a disastrous path trying to make its way back. There was a failed attempt, which you know, you can read in your Bible.

It’s in the Bible plan too. And the Ark found a temporary residence at a Gentile Obed Edom. The Ark rests at his house for a period of months and in a Gentile think about this like this is Obed Edom is a Gentile. He’s a Gittite. The Ark of the Covenant is literally in his garage. And his house is completely blessed.

Like he’s, his kids are prospering. He’s winning the lottery. Like his he’s got a promotion at his job. Like all these things are happening to this Gentile because the presence of God is in his house. Wow. So David finds out about this and he’s like, okay, let’s try again a second time. And when he does the second time through second Samuel six, you can read about it is.

He does it with reverence. He does it on the prescription that God said on how his Ark should be traveled along the shoulders of man and not upon man made carts like the Philistines did. The Philistines got away with it because they weren’t God’s people. And guess what? The nonbelievers can get away with things that you can’t as a Christian because you’re held to a higher standard and the Jews were held to a higher standard as well. And so when they transported the Ark the second time they did it right and there was this whole procession I won’t go into.

But when they finally made it to Jerusalem, this Ark of the covenant that had not been there for years now, the presence of God, so keep this in mind, too. So the there’s a tabernacle of Moses where they were doing the sacrifices. And this tabernacle of Moses was without the covenant for years.

But they kept doing the sacrifices. They kept doing all the things that were tradition without the presence of God. And so the tabernacle of Moses was happening away from Jerusalem. And during this procession back to Jerusalem, David had a choice. He could either go back to Gibeon, there Tabernacle of Moses was, or he could bring it in the heart of Jerusalem, in the middle of Jerusalem, right next to where his palace was.

And that’s what he chose. And so that’s just a picture for today. When churches go through activities without the presence of God, they’re missing a key component. And David chose in the middle of his In the beginning of his reign to say, I want the presence of God in the heart of the city that God’s given me.

And so he created a tent. It was like a makeshift tent, like a Coleman tent, if you will, who knows in the middle of the city for the Ark of the covenant To be in the heart of the city and by doing that, it opened up a way for, this is the first time you see like instruments used in the Bible.

This is a David appointed 4000 Levites to be commissioned 24 7 for continuous ministry to the Lord. This was the 1st, 24, 7 prayer session that happened for years and years. You see, industry happening. You see routes taken to come to the heart of Jerusalem, where the tabernacle of God was, where the presence of God was, and also where Gentiles were allowed in where previously it was in the Holy of Holies for the high priest.

Now it’s in the middle of a tent where people can just come and praise God. And so that’s really the point of all this is that this was like a depiction of. Our present reality of making sure that we prioritize the presence of God today in everything we do, and as Gentiles, we’re allowed to come into the presence of God, thankfully, through the blood of Jesus and through breaking the veil, coming into the Holy of Holies.

And now he’s our high priest. And so this whole thing is. Is, and I’ll quote Tyler Staton, who says David put prayer back at the center of God’s people, and he invited everyone, men and women, slave and free, Israelite and pagan. The 33 years of David’s kingship were the only time before the resurrection that there were no restrictions on access to God’s presence.

David’s tabernacle was a New Testament reality in an Old Testament world. That’s the scandal of this prayer tent. Wow. And so that’s it. That’s the importance of this. That’s why, you know, you should read up on this. You should read your Bible. You should check out this plan because this is something that God, I don’t want to say hidden, but he put over the course of many, many years from the time of Moses, from the time of Having an Ark of the Covenant in the wilderness through the turmoil of Saul and David into its resting place in Jerusalem.

And obviously we know Jesus came from the line of David, which is even more powerful when you consider that this was like a foreshadowing and you knew something that we didn’t as far as the importance Of the presence of God. Honestly,

[00:28:43] Drew: that’s awesome. So, so do this, tell me how I can find this. If I’m listening to this right now, I have the Bible app and I want to make sure that I find your 10 day study, how’s the best way to search for this in the Bible app?

[00:28:57] Tim: Yeah. So go in the U version Bible app, go to plans, and then there’s a button that says, find plans with a magnifying glass, type in tabernacle of David. It’ll be the first response. And it’ll look like this. If you’re on the video. Tabernacle of David with the gold, it’ll be gold background with the gold ark of the covenant.
