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

Psalms 69: 9 Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up, and the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.

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

Hallelujah 

If we are the bride, the church we should not blasphemy the name of the Lord

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, when the bride, the church comes to the presence of the Lord, they should receive life in their soul and should glorify God. Also, we meditated that our Lord Jesus Christ is the living bread, and he gives us his life and he also makes us eat the bread and those eating the bread should eat it only the holy place and God says that this is a perpetual statue. But we meditated that the burnt offering that we are offering to our Lord Jesus Christ will be most holy. 

But today what we are meditating upon is that Leviticus 24: 11 – 15 And the Israelite woman’s son blasphemed the name of the Lord and cursed; and so they brought him to Moses. (His mother’s name was Shelomith the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.) 

Then they put him in custody, that the mind of the Lord might be shown to them.

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 

“Take outside the camp him who has cursed; then let all who heard him lay their hands on his head and let all the congregation stone him.

“Then you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.

When we meditate upon this, the son born of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and when a man of Israel also fought, the Israelite woman’s son blasphemed the name of the Lord and cursed. So, they brought him to Moses. His mother was the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. The reason why he blasphemed the name of the Lord is that he was the seed of an Egyptian. He, who is an Egyptian is a man who serves foreign gods. That is why, God is saying that there is no communion between light and darkness. That is what in 2 Corinthians 6: 14 – 18 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? 

And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? 

And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be My people.”

Therefore “Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you.”

“I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”

Therefore, we must be careful in our spiritual life. In our spiritual life, evil teaching, which is idol worship should not be there. Therefore, God says that we should not marry the foreign woman. But after we have been redeemed by the blood of Christ, all of us through Christ become one holy nation. God is saying that what he has made clean we should not say as unclean. That is why, God is saying that Israel shall dwell alone.

Also, God is telling Moses to take outside the camp him who has cursed the Lord; also, he is telling that let all the congregation stone him. In Israel, whoever curses the Lord, God is placing the iniquity upon him. And whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord whether he is a stranger or he is born in the land should be put to death says the Lord and the significance of this is that our soul is being killed. Also, God is pushing us out of the church.

Therefore, in any circumstance we must not blasphemy God and follow God carefully. In this manner, let us keep the above facts in our attention and let us submit ourselves.

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