Stay in The Secret Place!!!

I want to revisit the significance of the scriptures just referenced. The Levites were set apart. Their duties included the care of the tabernacle. This was arduous, rigorously grueling. Remember that whenever the Israelites stayed in a place, whether as long as one night, or for a year, the Levites broke down the tabernacle prior to leaving and went ahead of the Israelites to set it back up upon their arrival at their next destination.

Upon research it is confirmed that the Levites' inheritance is spiritual, and not material. Their roles were substantially significant. Being notably and nobly exalted, as God was their inheritance. Preeminent to true believers being a royal priesthood. Their faith needed to be integral as they literally depended on God for all of their needs.

“Then the LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan [across from] Jericho, saying, ‘Command the Israelites to give to the Levites cities to live in from the inheritance of their possession; and you shall give the Levites pasture lands around the cities. The cities shall be theirs to live in; and their pasture lands shall be for their cattle and for their herds and for all their livestock” (Numbers 35: 1-3, AMP).

Here is the seriousness of the matter. God set the boundary lines. As in chapter 34, they were set in the north, south, east, and west regions. And here they are set even more intimately in the suburbs. In every boundary that was set, the Israelites were surrounded on all sides. As in the wedge of protection that surrounded Job.

“The pasture lands around the cities which you shall give the Levites shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits (1,500 ft.) around. You shall measure outside the city on the east, south, west, and north sides two thousand cubits (3,000 ft.), with the city in the center. This shall belong to the Levites as pasture lands for the cities” (Numbers 35: 4-5, AMP).

God Will Validate and Verify!!!

God Will Validate and Verify!!! But before I go on, I must take accountability for the thing that I said. Being corrected, I need to apologize. Before listening to Celestial of “The Master’s Voice Prophecy Blog” recently, I stated that I could not even listen to someone that attempts to come to me with any depiction of Jesus, particularly Sallman's version of the "Head of Christ". But credit must be given, that part of the European nations' legacy is the fact that they, regardless of intent, were willing to take the gospel all over the world, "enlightening countless others". She confirmed what bothers me most, and that is that we don't take the time to study the Word and know Him for ourselves. As she affirmed it with this statement, "The Gospel has to be separated from its historical past. Using Jesus as a coverup for colonization, oppression, or for anything else, does not negate the fact that truth is truth and that Jesus is Jesus...". I a...

Set Structure and Boundaries in Love!!!

Set Structure and Boundaries in Love!!! I want to speak on a precept that is crucially important. As much as asking for a deeper understanding and relationship with Christ Jesus, we must ask for a zealous spirit in righteous indignation for Him. It is a commandment from our God, and rightfully so. “But this is how you shall deal with them: you shall tear down their altars and smash to pieces their sacred pillars, and cut down their Asherim (symbols of the goddess Asherah), and burn their carved or sculpted images in the fire. For you are a holy people [set apart] to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be a people for His own possession [that is, His very special treasure]” (Deuteronomy 7: 5-6, AMP). For it is this same zeal that the LORD has for His people. “For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the LORD of hosts shall do this” (Isaiah 37: 32, KJV). The ...

God's Laws Remain Very Relevant!!!

God's Laws Remain Very Relevant!!! As we enter chapter 6 in the Book of Deuteronomy, there is a continued focus on God’s laws. I am led by the Spirit to point out a couple of things before we proceed, as many would think that sin is justified as long as we “repent”. “For whoever keeps the whole Law but stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of [breaking] all of it. For He who said, ‘DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY,’ also said, DO NOT MURDER.’ Now if you do not commit adultery, but you murder, you have become guilty of transgressing the [entire] Law” (James 2: 10-11, AMP). “What shall we say [to all this]? Should we continue in sin and practice sin as a habit so that [God’s gift of] grace may increase and overflow? Certainly not! How can we, the very ones who died to sin, continue to live in it any longer? Or are you ignorant of the fact that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? We have therefore been buried with Him through baptism into dea...
