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

Isaiah 49: 22

Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations, and set up My standard for the peoples; They shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;

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

We, the bride, the church, should suffer for the churches to increase through Christ.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, we meditated that our soul, the bride, the church, the house of God will be blessed by the word of God.

Next what we are meditating upon is that in the verse 1 Chronicles 14: 1 - 3 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters, to build him a house. 

So David knew that the Lord had established him as king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted for the sake of His people Israel.

Then David took more wives in Jerusalem, and David begot more sons and daughters.

In the above-mentioned verses, Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters, to build him a house. So David knew that the Lord had established him as king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted for the sake of His people Israel. Then David took more wives in Jerusalem, and David begot more sons and daughters. And these are the names of his children whom he had in Jerusalem: 1 Chronicles 14: 4 – 7 And these are the names of his children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, 

Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet, 

Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, 

Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

The facts regarding this is that Christ is forming many churches and through that many daughters and sons are born and this is the work of the Lord and the Lord is showing this as a pattern. For that, when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to search for David. And David heard of it and went out against them. Then the Philistines went and made a raid on the Valley of Rephaim. And David inquired of God, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?” The Lord said to him, “Go up, for I will deliver them into your hand.” So they went up to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there. Then David said, “God has broken through my enemies by my hand like a breakthrough of water.” Therefore they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.

My dear people, the generation of Christ means if we put our foundation upon him within us all the deeds of the Philistines like gold, silver he removes completely and if we will submit ourselves for the Lord only, we will receive life through Christ and if we join along with the church then we can possess eternal life and for him by Christ we can give birth to sons and daughters.  This is what the Lord using David he is showing as a pattern the growth of the church. In this manner, for the churches to increase we must work for the Lord and submit ourselves. 

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