Ezekiel emphasizes that the Temple
was to be built according to God’s pattern. Our lives are to be lived
according to God’s pattern - “Be holy in all you do”, “Love one another
deeply, from the heart” (1 Peter 1:15,22). The instructions for the building the Temple were precise. The instructions for our living in obedience to the truth (1 Peter 1:22)
are comprehensive. Holiness and love - these are the principles which
are to guide us in the whole of life. Psalm 131 speaks of humility and
hope. With a humble heart, we are to bow before the Lord. Like “a
weaned child” trusts “its mother”, we are to trust our Heavenly Father.
Such childlike faith is the essence of hope - trust in “the Word of
the Lord” which stands for ever” (1 Peter 1:24).
