“Glory to the Precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Proverbs 29: 18 Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; but happy is he who keeps the law.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen
Hallelujah
Christ is manifesting as a prophet within us, the bride, the church.
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 be as those who tread the high places for salvation. That is, for those who are saved through our Lord Jesus Christ there is no one like him in this world and he is the shield that helps us and the sword of majesty. Therefore he will fight with our enemies and will be victorious and so the enemies will speak with flattery and submit themselves. They will tread upon on the high places through Christ and in this manner, Moses blessed the children of Israel.
Next what we will be meditating upon is Deuteronomy 34: 1 – 12 Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is across from Jericho. And the Lord showed him all the land of Gilead as far as Dan,
all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea,
the South, and the plain of the Valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, as far as Zoar.
Then the Lord said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over there.”
So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord.
And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Peor; but no one knows his grave to this day.
Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim nor his natural vigor diminished.
And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days. So the days of weeping and mourning for Moses ended.
Now Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; so the children of Israel heeded him and did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
But since then there has not arisen in Israel a prophet like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face,
in all the signs and wonders which the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt, before Pharaoh, before all his servants, and in all his land,
and by all that mighty power and all the great terror which Moses performed in the sight of all Israel.
When we meditate upon the above-mentioned verses, after Moses had blessed the children of Israel by God he went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is across from Jericho. And the Lord showed him all the land of Gilead as far as Dan, all Naphtali and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Western Sea, the South, and the plain of the Valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, as far as Zoar.
Then the Lord said to Moses, “This is the land of which I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over there.” That is because already in the matter regarding the waters of Meribah God had told Moses this thing. That is, you will not enter into the land that you are leading the children of Israel to. But he said that you will see it. In the same way he made him see it.
The reason he is showing this as a pattern is that those who are leading the church of God though they are taught and led by God if there are mistakes in them; that is, if they do not submit themselves to be made holy then God will not have a regard to anyone and without partiality they will be judged, and he is explaining this and is showing this as a pattern.
So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord. And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Peor; but no one knows his grave to this day. Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim, nor his natural vigour diminished. And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days.
Now Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; so the children of Israel heeded him and did as the Lord had commanded Moses. But it is written that since then there has not arisen in Israel a prophet like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, in all the signs and wonders which the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt, before Pharaoh, before all his servants, and in all his land, and by all that mighty power and all the great terror which Moses performed in the sight of all Israel. But no one in man arose in this manner.
Also, Deuteronomy 18: 15 – 18 “The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your midst, from your brethren. Him you shall hear,
according to all you desired of the Lord your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, nor let me see this great fire anymore, lest I die.’
“And the Lord said to me: ‘What they have spoken is good.
I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him.
When we meditate upon the verses that have been told, Moses is telling that our Lord Jesus Christ is going to rise up as a prophet in our midst and he is revealing this and saying that I will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him and Moses is telling us what was told to him.
In this manner, our Lord Jesus Christ in our midst as next to Moses manifests himself as a true prophet. Let us submit ourselves for such kind of blessings.
Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
