“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”

Job 23: 3

Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, that I might come to His seat!

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen

If we, the bride, the church will manifest as the church of Christ we must be as those who are filled with the true words of God and the lamp of Christ should be shining upon our head.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, we meditated that we, the bride, the church should be careful not to give place to the foreign woman in our soul, the place where the Lord dwells.

Next what we are meditating upon is that 1 Kings 7: 14 – 20 He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a bronze worker; he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill in working with all kinds of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and did all his work.

And he cast two pillars of bronze, each one eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits measured the circumference of each. 

Then he made two capitals of cast bronze, to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits. 

He made a lattice network, with wreaths of chainwork, for the capitals which were on top of the pillars: seven chains for one capital and seven for the other capital. 

So he made the pillars, and two rows of pomegranates above the network all around to cover the capitals that were on top; and thus he did for the other capital.

The capitals which were on top of the pillars in the hall were in the shape of lilies, four cubits. 

The capitals on the two pillars also had pomegranates above, by the convex surface which was next to the network; and there were two hundred such pomegranates in rows on each of the capitals all around.

In the above-mentioned verses, King Solomon built a palace for the daughter of Pharaoh whom he married. Then he brought Huram from Tyre. He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a bronze worker; he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill in working with all kinds of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and did all his work. And he cast two pillars of bronze, each one eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits measured the circumference of each. Then he made two capitals of cast bronze, to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits. Also, inside the temple of God the way the carvings were done in 1 Kings 7: 17 – 21 He made a lattice network, with wreaths of chainwork, for the capitals which were on top of the pillars: seven chains for one capital and seven for the other capital. 

So he made the pillars, and two rows of pomegranates above the network all around to cover the capitals that were on top; and thus he did for the other capital.

The capitals which were on top of the pillars in the hall were in the shape of lilies, four cubits. 

The capitals on the two pillars also had pomegranates above, by the convex surface which was next to the network; and there were two hundred such pomegranates in rows on each of the capitals all around.

Then he set up the pillars by the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the right and called its name Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the left and called its name Boaz.

In the above-mentioned verses, the carvings on the pillars are being written. Then he set up the pillars by the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the right and called its name Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the left and called its name Boaz. The tops of the pillars were in the shape of lilies. So the work of the pillars was finished.

My dear people, the carvings inside the temple of God are being done means that the inner man is saved by the words of the Lord and is decorated by grace and he is showing how we are being filled with glory. Also, the two pillars are the testimonies of Moses and Elijah, who have received the anointing of the Spirit and the capitals of cast bronze means as those who are filled with the true word of God and the shape of lilies at its top means Christ, the sun of righteousness is rising upon the head of those who are anointed, and this is manifesting this. The reason for showing this as a pattern in this manner is that we should also be filled in this manner with grace and be as a temple of God. Let us submit ourselves to be blessed with such kind of blessings.

Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
