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

1 Samuel 16: 13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So, Samuel arose and went to Ramah.

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

Hallelujah 

We, the Bride, the church should gather together as a church and submit ourselves completely as an offering to the Lord and should receive the anointing.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, we meditated that the bride, the church should compulsorily gather together as a church daily and God is saying this by using the children of Israel as a pattern. Not only that, we also meditated that the tabernacle is the Holy Spirit and altar is Christ and all of us should be under Christ filled with the Holy Spirit and gather as a church and glorify God and should offer worship.

Next, what we are meditating is that Numbers 7: 10 – 83 Now the leaders offered the dedication offering for the altar when it was anointed; so the leaders offered their offering before the altar. 

For the Lord said to Moses, “They shall offer their offering, one leader each day, for the dedication of the altar.”

When we meditate above these verses, when the church gathers together to offer God an offering it is written that on the day when the altar was anointed, they brought the offering before the altar.  The significance of this is that our Lord Jesus is anointed by God, and he is our altar and on that altar we must submit ourselves completely as an offering (spirit, soul and body) and sacrifice and God is showing that as a pattern. 

In this manner, according to the law of the Lord the one who offered his offering on the first day was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. The offering that he offered was one silver platter, the weight of which was one hundred and thirty shekels, and one silver bowl of seventy shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, both of them full of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering; one gold pan of ten shekels, full of incense; one young bull, one ram, and one male lamb in its first year, as a burnt offering; one kid of the goats as a sin offering; and for the sacrifice of peace offerings: two oxen, five rams, five male goats, and five male lambs in their first year. This was the offering of Nahshon the son of Amminadab on the first day.

In this manner, we see that they offered sacrifice to the Lord for twelve days. This is written to show how each one of us must be prepared with the word of God and our soul should be filled with prayer and grace. But according to what is said above, on the second day Nethanel the son of Zuar, leader of Issachar, presented an offering. In this manner, the leaders of every tribe offered the offering in the same manner and submitted themselves. These show one mind, one thought, one heart and one spirit. 

In this manner, the anointing is manifested in Christ. In this manner, God is anointing our Lord Jesus Christ in our soul. From this what we must know is that the church should gather and worship God with one mind and should receive the anointing. Let us all submit in this manner.

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