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

Revelation 18: 4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.

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

Hallelujah

God is arising in the midst of Israel

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days we meditated regarding how our Lord God descended in the midst of Israel in Mount Sinai.

When the Lord came down upon Mount Sinai, the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

Exodus 19: 21, 22 And the Lord said to Moses, “Go down and warn the people, lest they break through to gaze at the Lord, and many of them perish. 

Also let the priests who come near the Lord consecrate themselves, lest the Lord break out against them.”

When we say on top of the mountain it is a holy life and in the Old Testament it is shown as a pattern to the Lord’s presence in Mount Sinai. There, those who have less holiness cannot go there. Therefore, God is calling Moses only saying Come. The priests who are coming to the presence of God should consecrate themselves.

None of the people can climb and go up Mount Sinai. This is because he said that ‘Set bounds around the mountain and consecrate it.’” So, because of this only they cannot go.

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Away! Get down and then come up, you and Aaron with you. But do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, lest He break out against them.” 

In the same way Moses told the people this.

Also, the people were able to go to God only through Moses. For that, God is bringing a Mount Sinai; and is descending on it. That Mount Sinai is only Christ. He consecrates us through Christ and for us to reach God, God is setting bounds around Mount Sinai and is telling to consecrate it.

In our lives, he is showing us clearly that no one can go across the bounds that Christ puts. But Moses is telling the words that God told him to the people.

Exodus 20: 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

When we meditate on this Bible verse it is written as you. Israel church (Christ). It is explaining to us that all people should have one heart.

This is what in the New Testament God says in Matthew 2: 20, 21 saying, “Arise, take the young Child and His mother, and go to the land of Israel, for those who sought the young Child’s life are dead.”

Then he arose, took the young Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel.

Here God is saying through God’s angel that the church has to come from Egypt to Israel. 

That is, our soul is Egypt. If Christ is born there, we must leave all the deeds of Egypt there and we must go on the journey of faith to Israel. The land which is Israel is only Canaan. Christ will be glorified in Canaan. (It is a land where milk and honey flows which is our soul). He is only the new Jerusalem.

God is telling in Exodus 20: 3 with authority that “You shall have no other gods before Me.

In this manner, if Israel the church is redeemed from Egypt, in the soul other than God there should not give important place for any other thinking. This is an important commandment. When God is speaking in this manner to the people, the people trembled.

Exodus 20: 18 Now all the people witnessed the thunderings, the lightning flashes, the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood afar off.

Then they said to Moses, “You speak with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die.”

And Moses said to the people, “Do not fear; for God has come to test you, and that His fear may be before you, so that you may not sin.” 

So, the people stood afar off, but Moses drew near the thick darkness where God was.

When God is speaking to the people if there is thunderings, lightning flashes, the sound of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking and such things then the temple of God is being opened. This is because God is arising in our soul. He is speaking to us in our soul. The God who spoke from Mount Sinai then, Mount Sinai is our Lord Jesus Christ, and through him God is speaking to us. Then Christ is the temple of God. That temple is seen in heaven. We must understand that all these things are our soul and we must always consecrate ourselves.

When our Lord Jesus Christ resurrects in our soul then the sound of the trumpet will be heard, the temple of God is being opened in heaven and the smoke there is the Babylonian harlot was dwelling is us. Because she is burning in God’s fire that smoke arises from there.

My dear people, the explanation about this God willing we will meditate tomorrow. Let us all submit ourselves for such changes to come in our lives and for God to arise. Let us pray.

May the Lord bless you all abundantly.
