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

Psalms 122: 9

Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good.

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

When we, the bride, the church manifest as the church of God then the Lord blesses us.

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 change as the church of God and be filled with the glory of God.

Next what we are meditating upon is that in 2 Chronicles 6: 1 – 3 Then Solomon spoke: “The Lord said He would dwell in the dark cloud.

I have surely built You an exalted house, and a place for You to dwell in forever.”

Then the king turned around and blessed the whole assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.

In the above-mentioned verses, after Solomon had finished building the temple for the Lord, the church was filled with the glory of the Lord and then Solomon: The Lord said He would dwell in the dark cloud. I have surely built You an exalted house, and a place for You to dwell in forever. Then the king turned around and blessed the whole assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing. He said in 2 Chronicles 6: 4 – 12 And he said: “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who has fulfilled with His hands what He spoke with His mouth to my father David, saying, 

‘Since the day that I brought My people out of the land of Egypt, I have chosen no city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house, that My name might be there, nor did I choose any man to be a ruler over My people Israel. 

Yet I have chosen Jerusalem, that My name may be there, and I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’ 

Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel. 

But the Lord said to my father David, ‘Whereas it was in your heart to build a temple for My name, you did well in that it was in your heart. 

Nevertheless you shall not build the temple, but your son who will come from your body, he shall build the temple for My name.’ 

So the Lord has fulfilled His word which He spoke, and I have filled the position of my father David, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised; and I have built the temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel. 

And there I have put the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord which He made with the children of Israel.”

Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands

In the above-mentioned verses, if the Lord arises within us as the church, then we should be as those who praise the Lord greatly. This is because whatever he says with his word in any day, he will surely fulfil it. The things which he has not done among our forefathers if we believe him, he will surely fulfil it in our times, and this is sure. From the day that the Lord had called us and brought us to his feet he chose us and has chosen Jerusalem, the place where his name is manifested and its leader as Christ and Christ arises within us as the church and establishes his words within us and he fulfilled his word that forever we will manifest as the temple of God and he showed this as a pattern that I have filled the position of my father David, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised; and I have built the temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel. And there I have put the ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord which He made with the children of Israel. In this manner, let us submit ourselves to manifest for the Lord. 

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