“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Galatians 3: 12
Yet the law is not of faith, but “the man who does them shall live by them.”
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
We, the bride, the church should definitely follow the laws of the commandments.
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 as the church of the Lord and as those who have received the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Next what we are meditating upon is that 1 Kings 8: 1 – 9 Now Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the City of David, which is Zion.
Therefore all the men of Israel assembled with King Solomon at the feast in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
So all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
Then they brought up the ark of the Lord, the tabernacle of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tabernacle. The priests and the Levites brought them up.
Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for multitude.
Then the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the Most Holy Place, under the wings of the cherubim.
For the cherubim spread their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim overshadowed the ark and its poles.
The poles extended so that the ends of the poles could be seen from the holy place, in front of the inner sanctuary; but they could not be seen from outside. And they are there to this day.
Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
In the above-mentioned verses, after King Solomon finished the works of the temple of the Lord and brought in the things which his father David had dedicated: the silver and the gold and the furnishings and put them in the treasuries of the house of the Lord then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the City of David, which is Zion. Therefore all the men of Israel assembled with King Solomon at the feast in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month. So all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark. Then they brought up the ark of the Lord, the tabernacle of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tabernacle. The priests and the Levites brought them up. Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for multitude. Then the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the Most Holy Place, under the wings of the cherubim. For the cherubim spread their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim overshadowed the ark and its poles. The poles extended so that the ends of the poles could be seen from the holy place, in front of the inner sanctuary; but they could not be seen from outside. And they are there to this day. Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
My dear people, the things mentioned above is that after we have manifested as the temple of the Lord our inner man will be as Zion and from there the ark of the covenant of the Lord means Christ, the glory of the Lord these are brought to the inner sanctuary of the Lord, which is our soul and should be manifested there and as a pattern the priests and the Levites will come to the place of the inner sanctuary, the Most Holy Place for the glory of the Lord to be manifested there. Then it is manifested that it will be guarded by the hosts of angels, and it is kept under the spread wings of the cherubim. They will cover all the ark of the Lord and its poles. Inside that the commandments of the Lord which Moses put there at Horeb was seen which means if the glory of the Lord should manifest in us then in Horeb the tablets of stone which the Lord gave Moses where the commandments and laws were written should be followed definitely. In that Christ will be manifested in glory. Then each one of us should offer sacrifices of praise to the Lord and will glorify the Lord. In this manner, let us submit ourselves so that we are filled with the glory of the Lord always.
Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
