“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Zechariah 9: 16
The Lord their God will save them in that day, as the flock of His people. For they shall be like the jewels of a crown, lifted like a banner over His land—
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
We, the bride, the church, each one of should be as precious stones adorned in the crown of 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 we, the bride, the church, to grow in our spiritual life we should be careful.
Next what we are meditating upon is that in 1 Chronicles 20: 1 – 3 It happened in the spring of the year, at the time kings go out to battle, that Joab led out the armed forces and ravaged the country of the people of Ammon and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. And Joab defeated Rabbah and overthrew it.
Then David took their king’s crown from his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it. And it was set on David’s head. Also he brought out the spoil of the city in great abundance.
And he brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. So David did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
When we meditate upon the above-mentioned verses, when the servants of Hadadezer, the king of Zobah saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and became his servants. So the Syrians were not willing to help the people of Ammon anymore. It happened in the spring of the year, at the time kings go out to battle, that Joab led out the armed forces and ravaged the country of the people of Ammon and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. And Joab defeated Rabbah and overthrew it. Then David took their king’s crown from his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it. And it was set on David’s head. Also he brought out the spoil of the city in great abundance. And he brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. So David did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
My dear people, the facts regarding the above-mentioned is that our Lord Jesus Christ in every one of our soul the work that he is doing is that: when the kings were ruling the Gentile people those kings were destroyed by the Lord and took as spoil the things that they used and along with that spoil the crown of that king is being kept on the head of Christ. That is, he includes the Gentiles with his Holy blood, Holy Spirit, Holy anointing and the Holy verses and words and his Holy glory and along with those people he is bringing them to Jerusalem, within the body of Christ. These are the crown of talent of gold and precious stones which was placed upon the head of Christ. Let us submit ourselves for these to be there in our soul as deeds.
Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
