How was the ARK to be used:
It was used to lead the Jews into the promise land by going before them (Joshua 3, 4, 6).
It was used in leading them in battle to remind them God was with them (1 Samuel 4)
Where was it to be kept:
Instructions as to where it would be kept:
Exodus 26:33-34 And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy. And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.
What became of the ARK …
Last mentioned in 2 Chronicles 35:3 And said unto the Levites that taught all Israel, which were holy unto the LORD, Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel did build; it shall not be a burden upon your shoulders: serve now the LORD your God, and his people Israel,
Last prophecy is in Jeremiah 3:16 And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the LORD, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the LORD: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more.
What did John see:
Revelation 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Today believers don’t need the ARK, the Lord Jesus is all we need.
The ARK of the Covenant will reappear during the TRIBULATION!
