“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Psalms 16: 5 O Lord, you are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
Hallelujah
If God must do the work of priesthood in us, the bride, the church we must not desire in the wealth of the world and we must live like the Lord is our portion and the Lord is our inheritance.
My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days, we, the bride, the church should submit ourselves with our whole heart, whole soul, whole mind and whole strength as an offering pleasing to the Lord and when we submit in this manner God will make an eternal law as an unchanging covenant with us and with those who come after us our sons and daughters.
Next what we are meditating is that Numbers 18: 20 – 32 Then the Lord said to Aaron: “You shall have no inheritance in their land, nor shall you have any portion among them; I am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Israel.
“Behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tithes in Israel as an inheritance in return for the work which they perform, the work of the tabernacle of meeting.
Hereafter the children of Israel shall not come near the tabernacle of meeting, lest they bear sin and die.
But the Levites shall perform the work of the tabernacle of meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity; it shall be a statute forever, throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.
For the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer up as a heave offering to the Lord, I have given to the Levites as an inheritance; therefore I have said to them, ‘Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.’”
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
“Speak thus to the Levites and say to them: ‘When you take from the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them as your inheritance, then you shall offer up a heave offering of it to the Lord, a tenth of the tithe.
And your heave offering shall be reckoned to you as though it were the grain of the threshing floor and as the fullness of the winepress.
Thus you shall also offer a heave offering to the Lord from all your tithes which you receive from the children of Israel, and you shall give the Lord’s heave offering from it to Aaron the priest.
Of all your gifts you shall offer up every heave offering due to the Lord, from all the best of them, the consecrated part of them.’
Therefore you shall say to them: ‘When you have lifted up the best of it, then the rest shall be accounted to the Levites as the produce of the threshing floor and as the produce of the winepress.
You may eat it in any place, you and your households, for it is your reward for your work in the tabernacle of meeting.
And you shall bear no sin because of it when you have lifted up the best of it. But you shall not profane the holy gifts of the children of Israel, lest you die.’”
In the above-mentioned verses what the Lord told Aaron is that in the land of the children of Israel there is no need to have any inheritance and that is, God using Moses and after that using Joshua divided the land as a possession for the children of Israel and when he gave them, he commanded not to give anything to the tribe of Levi. That is, we can read that God is saying that I am their inheritance.
Therefore, the Lord said to Aaron: you shall not have any portion among them; I am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Israel says the Lord. Also, the children of Levi for the work which they perform, the work of the tabernacle of meeting, among the Israelites, in everything tithes will be given to them as an inheritance. Also, before we are redeemed by Christ the children of Israel shall not come near the tabernacle of meeting, lest they die says the Lord.
That is, if the possession of land is given unto them, they will not be eligible to do the works of the tabernacle and for those who have a portion in the things of the world do not have a portion in heaven and for that only our Lord Jesus made himself of no reputation and came to this world and made us also of no reputation in the same manner and came to save and take us.
Then he died for all of man’s sin, iniquity, curse for these things and then resurrected on the third day and on the day of Pentecost he descended upon each and every one who waited in the upper room and now according to the power that works within us he descends upon us also and he is doing his great work of priesthood. In this manner, those who are eligible to do the work of priesthood are the work of those who have only God as their portion and that is the work of Christ. They should not keep portions in the wealth of the world. In this manner, they should so the work of the tabernacle. For their survival God is giving them the tithes of the children of Israel.
Also, they shall bear the iniquity that they do and in the middle of the children of Israel they will not be given inheritance and it shall be a statue forever for them says the Lord. Also, what the Lord says to tell the Levites is that when you take from the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them as your inheritance, then you shall offer up a heave offering of it to the Lord, a tenth of the tithe and when you offer in this manner it shall be reckoned to you as though it were the grain of the threshing floor and as the fullness of the winepress.
Also, one portion of the tithes that you receive should be offered to the Lord and it should be given to Aaron and of all the offerings that are being given to you; all the best of them, the consecrated part of them should be offered to the Lord and it should be offered as a heave offering and when we offer in this manner it should be offered as the produce of the threshing floor and as the produce of the winepress. You may eat it in any place, you and your households, for it is your reward for your work in the tabernacle of meeting says the Lord.
In this manner, if we offer the best things to the Lord because of that we shall bear no sin and God will have mercy on us. Also, he is saying that you shall not profane the holy gifts, lest you die. That is why, God is pleased in this kind of worship. Therefore Christ appoints apostles and arranges the apostolic ministry and for him to be glorified in their midst, he is commanding everyone to take their own wealth and keep them in the feet of the Apostles. Everyone did in this manner and experienced themselves as one. No one had any decrease of anything. There was no difference among those who brought little and those who brought more.
In this manner, we must offer a worship that is pleasing to God. Ananias and Sapphira, who are not worshipping in this manner are losing their lives. Therefore, my dear people, we must offer a worship that is pleasing to God. In these days, many blind servants of God are collecting and keeping wealth for them and not only that but from the blessings which the Lord is giving them for his work, they are gathering wealth for themselves and their generations.
My dear people, when we meditate upon the words of the Lord, these are people of the world. They are wearing the disguise of heaven. Surely according to the words of the Bible, God does not accept them. They are Ananias and Sapphira only.
Therefore, my dear people who are reading this everyone should meditate carefully on the above-mentioned facts and let us submit ourselves to offer a worship that is pleasing to the Lord.
Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
