A Temporary Blessing?

If the Tabernacle was only to be a temporary structure for Israel's wandering of the desert, then for what reason does a blessing of obedience in Lev 26:11 state that the Tabernacle (Mishkan) shall be given in the midst of Israel when they obey? These blessings are very clearly talking about dwelling in the land (Lev 26:4-6,10).

It is not just a matter of "do what the Torah says and be blessed". There are specific blessings, and, in this case, some of these blessings are inconvenient to recognize when one has been holding certain beliefs.
