The Ark of the Covenant
The ark of the covenant was the heart of the tabernacle—it represented the very presence of God. Only the high priest could come before the ark and he could only do this once a year. He would approach the ark with blood from the animal sacrifice and offer the blood as atonement for his sins and the people’s sins (see Heb. 9:7).
Sin separates man from God. But today, because Jesus’ blood has made atonement for our sins once and for all, there is no more separation between God and us. In fact, He no longer dwells in an inaccessible holy place...He dwells in us! Because the Lord is always with us, we never have to go through life alone!

The Menorah
The Menorah was a lampstand with seven branches—three on each side of the center shaft. All the lamps on the branches were made to face the center shaft (see Num. 8:1–3).
The menorah gives us a picture of Jesus at the center of our lives. As we live for His glory, shining the light that He first gave us back to Him, He gives us true meaning and fulfillment in life!

The Altar of Incense
This was an altar on which incense was burned as a pleasing aroma to God. Every morning and night, the high priest would burn a perpetual incense to God as intercession for His people (see Exod. 30:1–10).
The incense that went up to God speaks of the loveliness and perfection of Jesus, who is always pleasing to God. Today, because we are in Christ, God feels the same delight for us as He does for His Son (see 2 Cor. 2:15). Knowing that we are pleasing to God, we can come boldly to Him and be assured that He will hear our prayers!

The Golden Boards
The holy place of the tabernacle was structurally lined with golden boards. The boards were made of wood overlaid with gold and were fixed in silver sockets (see Exod. 26:15–30).
The golden boards symbolize us in Christ. In the Word of God, wood speaks of humanity, gold of righteousness, and silver of redemption. As believers, our human frailty is covered by Christ’s righteousness and we are rooted in the foundation of redemption! Although we fail and make mistakes, God still sees us righteous, redeemed, and extremely precious. Just like gold and silver.

The Table of Showbread
On the table of showbread, the priests would place twelve fresh loaves of bread—representing the twelve tribes of Israel—before the Lord every Sabbath (see Lev. 24:5–9). The Lord commanded that the showbread be placed before Him “always” (see Exod. 25:30).
The table of showbread that is always before the Lord tells us that He desires to be with His people at all times! He delights in having us in His presence!

The Bronze Altar
The bronze altar was placed in the outer court of the tabernacle. God’s people came to offer animal sacrifices for their sins on this altar (see Lev. 1:1–17).
In the Word of God, bronze represents judgment. So the bronze altar symbolizes the finished work of Jesus, who became the sacrifice for our sins and took all of God’s judgment for us. He bore every curse upon Himself—all condemnation, sickness, and poverty—so that today, we can have peace, health, and provision!
