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).

When the LORD Goes Before You!!!

When the LORD Goes Before You!!! “Know [without any doubt], that the LORD your God is not giving you this good land to possess because of your righteousness, for you are a stiff-necked (stubborn, obstinate) people. Remember [with remorse] and do not forget how you provoked the LORD your God to wrath in the wilderness; from the day you left the land of Egypt until you arrived at this place, you have been rebellious against the LORD. And at Horeb (Sinai) you provoked the LORD to wrath, and the LORD was so angry with you that He would have destroyed you” (Deuteronomy 9: 4-8, AMP). Many of us focus on Moses' fasting for forty days and forty nights. But he had to go back up for a second time, for forty more days and nights, hewing two tablets of stone himself, as he fasted and prayed for the lives of the Israelites, including his brother Aaron. In God’s mercy they spent forty years in the wilderness, and He was not wrong if He would have condemned them to eighty years. Before we procee...

When Your Heart is Hardened (Part One)!!! At the very beginning of the plagues, Pharaoh asked Moses and Aaron for a sign, to prove themselves, and God’s sovereignty. Had he taken heed he would have seen the outcome then. “And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent. Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments. For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods” (Exodus 7: 10-12, KJV). God demonstrated His authority to Pharaoh and is why these plagues were written. To be passed down from generation to generation. It is why those who continue to ask for a sign, condemn themselves to judgment. Revealing the spirit of rebellion. This is by far, the most exhaustive paradigm ever recorded. “A wicked and adulterou...

Empathy and Mindfulness Are Required!!! The Lord spoke directly to my spirit, "HE CANNOT MOVE"! When He said that I knew that there was nothing else I could say at that moment, that would justify my thoughts and behaviors in the eyes of the Holy Spirit. I was treading into dangerous territory. My God was not pleased. So, if you read or listen to this, understand and appreciate His correction. The tone of the voice of the Spirit was loud and clear. It was plain to me that the conversation had ended. We must understand how easy it is to allow unclean spirits to enter into and manifest in our lives. Read in its entirety at Benevolent Woman
