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

Leviticus 19: 4 Do not turn to idols, nor make for yourselves molded gods: I am the Lord your God.

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

Into whom our Lord God enters - explanation

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the portion of the Bible that we meditated upon in the past days God is showing us clearly that our Lord God is very merciful using the people of Israel. That is, though they served idols and though they did a great sin, God did not destroy them but to Moses he called the Israelites and told them to go to the land that flows milk and honey and behold, My Angel shall go before you means in this place it is being said about Christ who saves us from perishing. He is the one who will come as Christ and he is showing us that as a pattern and he died for our sins, curses and iniquities and for such things and by the power of God was resurrected and he revived the souls of those who believe in him and raised them and made them sit in heavenly places along with him and to protect us carefully without any destruction in the night or day he does not sleep or slumber and he who submitted him for all of us will surely give us everything else. 

Psalms 121: 1 – 8 I will lift up my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help?

My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber.

Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade at your right hand.

The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.

The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul.

The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore.

Therefore, my dear people we must believe the words of God with our whole mind and if we will accept that word as God surely our help will come from the Lord who made heaven and earth.

Psalms 115: 13 – 15 He will bless those who fear the Lord, both small and great.

May the Lord give you increase more and more, you and your children.

May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

In this manner, for God to bless both the small and great in the first day that we consecrate ourselves for God, the Lord will bless us and we meditated upon this in the past days.

My dear people, when we consecrate ourselves, we must not give place for any kind of idols within us and empty ourselves and submit ourselves and we must consecrate ourselves for God. Then God will dwell in our inner body, within the tent and then it will be the house of God, dwelling place, and will manifest as his temple. That is

Psalms 115: 1 – 8 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, But to Your name give glory, because of Your mercy, because of Your truth.

Why should the Gentiles say, “So where is their God?”

But our God is in heaven; he does whatever He pleases.

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

They have mouths, but they do not speak; eyes they have, but they do not see;

They have ears, but they do not hear; noses they have, but they do not smell;

They have hands, but they do not handle; feet they have, but they do not walk; nor do they mutter through their throat.

Those who make them are like them; so is everyone who trusts in them.

Therefore, Israelites let us only believe the Lord as God and live dependent only on Him, do not think of any idols as God. 

Psalms 115: 9 – 12 O Israel, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.

O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.

You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.

The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.

That is what God is telling in Exodus 33: 2 – 10 And I will send My Angel before you, and I will drive out the Canaanite and the Amorite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite. 

Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in your midst, lest I consume you on the way, for you are a stiff-necked people.”

And when the people heard this bad news, they mourned, and no one put on his ornaments. 

For the Lord had said to Moses, “Say to the children of Israel, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. I could come up into your midst in one moment and consume you. Now therefore, take off your ornaments, that I may know what to do to you.’” 

So the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by Mount Horeb.

Moses took his tent and pitched it outside the camp, far from the camp, and called it the tabernacle of meeting. And it came to pass that everyone who sought the Lord went out to the tabernacle of meeting which was outside the camp. 

So it was, whenever Moses went out to the tabernacle, that all the people rose, and each man stood at his tent door and watched Moses until he had gone into the tabernacle. 

And it came to pass, when Moses entered the tabernacle, that the pillar of cloud descended and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses. 

All the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the tabernacle door, and all the people rose and worshiped, each man in his tent door.

Then, so that man will not do sin and perish but to safeguard yourselves take off the ornaments that you are wearing. Otherwise I could come up into your midst in one moment and consume you. Then God told Moses to tell the people of Israel that now therefore, take off your ornaments, that I may know what to do to you.

When Moses told the people the words of God, they obeyed the words of God immediately and everyone stripped themselves of all the ornaments that they were wearing by Mount Horeb.

After that only when Moses entered the tabernacle, that the pillar of cloud descended, and the Lord talked with Moses. Then God spoke to Moses face to face. In this manner, what God is showing as a pattern is that our inner man should be a tabernacle and we must receive the life of Christ in our soul and along with Christ and for Christ to speak to us, God is showing as a pattern and if they decorate ourselves with silver, gold ornaments he will not fill them with the glory of God and God will not speak to them and he is showing this clearly. Therefore, my dear people let us leave decorating ourselves with ornaments and follow only God and by his words let holiness be our decoration. Let us submit ourselves.

Let us pray. May the Lord bless you all abundantly
