THE TRUTH ABOUT WORSHIP (9 of 14)
Series: A MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART
Collin Wimberly
2 Samuel 6
CIT- David brings the Ark into Jerusalem
Proposition - Worship must be done God's way.
INTRODUCTION:
The Ark of God was the most sacred of all the furniture that was to rest in the Tabernacle. Under the reign of Saul, the Tabernacle and the ark had all but been forgotten.

What was the Ark? The Ark was the presence of God among His people. The ark was made of wood, it was a rectangular box, gold-plated inside and out. On top of this chest was a see-through covering made of Gold, called the Mercy Seat. At each end of the covering were golden angels facing each other, with wings outstretched over the Mercy seat.
