The Leftovers
Episode 1 - Prepared Places
The theme 'God Loves to Visit Prepared Places' is deeply rooted in Scripture, highlighting the importance of preparation and sacrifice. Solomon's act of offering a thousand sacrifices and his desire to build a temple for the Ark of the Covenant exemplify going above and beyond in devotion. David's response to God's 'no' by gathering materials for the temple teaches us that our preparation can pave the way for others. Biblical examples like Noah's altar, Moses at Mount Sinai, and the construction of the Tabernacle and Solomon's Temple show that sacrificial preparation invites God's presence and blessings. In the New Testament, the church is described as a bride prepared for Christ, emphasizing the need for personal and collective readiness for God's return. This week, challenge yourself to create a prepared place in your life for God's presence through intentional prayer, worship, and openness to divine interruptions.
