Exodus 25:23-40 (NLT)
“Then make a table of acacia wood, 36 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 27 inches high. Overlay it with pure gold and run a gold molding around the edge. Decorate it with a 3-inch border all around, and run a gold molding along the border. Make four gold rings for the table and attach them at the four corners next to the four legs. Attach the rings near the border to hold the poles that are used to carry the table. Make these poles from acacia wood, and overlay them with gold. Make special containers of pure gold for the table—bowls, ladles, pitchers, and jars—to be used in pouring out liquid offerings. Place the Bread of the Presence on the table to remain before me at all times.
“Make a lampstand of pure, hammered gold. Make the entire lampstand and its decorations of one piece—the base, center stem, lamp cups, buds, and petals. Make it with six branches going out from the center stem, three on each side. Each of the six branches will have three lamp cups shaped like almond blossoms, complete with buds and petals. Craft the center stem of the lampstand with four lamp cups shaped like almond blossoms, complete with buds and petals. There will also be an almond bud beneath each pair of branches where the six branches extend from the center stem. The almond buds and branches must all be of one piece with the center stem, and they must be hammered from pure gold. Then make the seven lamps for the lampstand, and set them so they reflect their light forward. The lamp snuffers and trays must also be made of pure gold. You will need 75 pounds of pure gold for the lampstand and its accessories.
“Be sure that you make everything according to the pattern I have shown you here on the mountain.

Place the Bread of the Presence on the table to remain before me at all times. (Exodus 25:30)
Pray
Lord Jesus, you are the Light of the World, the Bread of Life, and our Great High Priest. We praise you for rescuing us from sin, defeating our greatest Enemy, and delivering us into your Kingdom. Forgive us for doing what is right in own eyes rather than heeding our God’s Word. Thank you for perfectly fulfilling the Law on our behalf and drawing us back into God’s holy presence. Enable us by Your Spirit to live as the holy people You have made us to be. In Your name we pray. Amen.
