“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Isaiah 3: 10
Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
The assigning of us, the bride, the church by the Lord for his work.
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 receive the heavenly treasure, which is the eternal life.
Next what we are meditating upon is that in 1 Chronicles 26: 26 – 32 This Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the dedicated things which King David and the heads of fathers’ houses, the captains over thousands and hundreds, and the captains of the army, had dedicated.
Some of the spoils won in battles they dedicated to maintain the house of the Lord.
And all that Samuel the seer, Saul the son of Kish, Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah had dedicated, every dedicated thing, was under the hand of Shelomith and his brethren.
Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons performed duties as officials and judges over Israel outside Jerusalem.
Of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brethren, one thousand seven hundred able men, had the oversight of Israel on the west side of the Jordan for all the business of the Lord, and in the service of the king.
Among the Hebronites, Jerijah was head of the Hebronites according to his genealogy of the fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought, and there were found among them capable men at Jazer of Gilead.
And his brethren were two thousand seven hundred able men, heads of fathers’ houses, whom King David made officials over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to God and the affairs of the king.
In the above-mentioned verses, this Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the dedicated things which King David and the heads of fathers’ houses, the captains over thousands and hundreds, and the captains of the army, had dedicated. Some of the spoils won in battles they dedicated to maintain the house of the Lord. And all that Samuel the seer, Saul the son of Kish, Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah had dedicated, every dedicated thing, was under the hand of Shelomith and his brethren. Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons performed duties as officials and judges over Israel outside Jerusalem. Of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brethren, one thousand seven hundred able men, had the oversight of Israel on the west side of the Jordan for all the business of the Lord, and in the service of the king. Among the Hebronites, Jerijah was head of the Hebronites according to his genealogy of the fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought, and there were found among them capable men at Jazer of Gilead. And his brethren were two thousand seven hundred able men, heads of fathers’ houses, whom King David made officials over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to God and the affairs of the king.
My dear people, the facts regarding the above-mentioned verses are that if we have received eternal life, we should keep sanctifying it by the word of the Lord. If we will sanctify it in this manner, then it will be safeguarded under the hands of the Lord and God will give us the grace to stand in the gap for the people of the land. Then they will be noted as capable warriors as Christ will arise as our capable warrior, and this shows it as a pattern. In this manner, God is assigning those who are strong for all things pertaining to the Lord through Christ. In this manner, let us submit ourselves to be assigned for the work of the Lord.
Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
