“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Hebrews 7: 26 For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
Hallelujah
For us, the bride, the church there is only one priest, as one with fullness of grace he is the one with the priesthood who does not change forever.
My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, we meditated that for us, the bride, the church to get delivered from the bondages of sin and curse and to receive the redemption of the forgiveness of sin by the blood of Christ; our dirt, which is sin is washed and we are cleansed by his blood, and in comparison we receive the baptism by water and then later the bondages of sin and curse of our soul are cut off and the sound of the trumpet of God, which is the word of God is heard within the soul, then later praise, sound of thanksgiving in our soul should rise up in our soul by our priest Christ. When it rises in this manner and when we offer glory and worship to God, bondages are being broken by God and as a pattern for that God is using Joshua and is making them to cross over the Jericho that was in front of them, and we meditated regarding this. The wall of Jericho is a pattern of bondages of curse. In this manner just how God told Joshua, he commanded the people.
Next, what we are meditating is that Joshua 6: 6 – 15 Then Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord.”
And he said to the people, “Proceed, and march around the city, and let him who is armed advance before the ark of the Lord.”
So it was, when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the Lord advanced and blew the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them.
The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, while the priests continued blowing the trumpets.
Now Joshua had commanded the people, saying, “You shall not shout or make any noise with your voice, nor shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, ‘Shout!’ Then you shall shout.”
So he had the ark of the Lord circle the city, going around it once. Then they came into the camp and lodged in the camp.
And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord.
Then seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord went on continually and blew with the trumpets. And the armed men went before them. But the rear guard came after the ark of the Lord, while the priests continued blowing the trumpets.
And the second day they marched around the city once and returned to the camp. So they did six days.
But it came to pass on the seventh day that they rose early, about the dawning of the day, and marched around the city seven times in the same manner. On that day only they marched around the city seven times.
When we meditate upon the above-mentioned verses, Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord.” According to what the Lord has said let him who is armed advance before the ark of the Lord and proceed, and march around the city and that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the Lord advanced and blew the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them.
Now Joshua had commanded the people, saying, “You shall not shout or make any noise with your voice, nor shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, ‘Shout!’ Then you shall shout. And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. Then seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord went on continually and blew with the trumpets. And the armed men went before them. But the rear guard came after the ark of the Lord. In this manner, they did for six days and on the seventh day that they rose early, about the dawning of the day, and marched around the city seven times. And the seventh time it happened, when the priests blew the trumpets, that Joshua said to the people: “Shout, for the Lord has given you the city!
My dear people, when we read this what we come to know is that if our body is a city of curse, from that all of us must be delivered. If we must be delivered in this manner, the word of Christ should be heard in our soul. Our priest, Christ should always manifest in front of us in all things. What is written as seven priests, our priest is one, He is the one with fullness of grace. For our curses to be removed we must glorify our Christ, who is with fullness of grace along with a shout of Hallelujah.
Then that city, which is our soul is given into hands by God. After that it will not try to do things which we do not desire. But it will be truthful in listening to the words of God and obeying them. Also, it will remove all the unnecessary things from us. In this manner, let us submit ourselves to God so that there will be changes in our life.
Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
