7th Year 11-12 Edition 3 LEV 18
l The Feast l
Mar 27_2012 Chapter 18
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in Leviticus 18. here in Leviticus we see God instructing his concerning unlawful marriages and fleshly lusts.. God tells the people that He is their God and they will live by his statutes. ”2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, I am the Lord your God. 3 You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived, and you shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, to which I am bringing you. You shall not walk in their statutes. 4 You shall follow my rules and keep my statutes and walk in them. I am the Lord your God.” Leviticus 18:2 - 4, (ESV - English Standard Version). There is nothing we make or right without the power of God. This is why we continue to seek God’s instruction on how to prepare for Saintly Service. . We began with feeding the Saint in order to stay healthy and grow strong. We acknowledged that Word of God is the perfect food. God’s Word is still the means for feeding the Saints according to Jesus says it still is. We have began to prepare for Saintly Service. First by turning from sin and accepting God’s gift of salvation. Secondly we’ve secured a good supply of nourishment in God’s Word. We discovered that the Word of God is truth and that truth we put on to keep us free. We continue to look at preparations for Saintly Service. “13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore,having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness.. ” Ephsians 6:13 -14... ESV. Along with the belt of truth we put on the breastplate of righteousness as we prepare for Saintly Service. Abram believed the Lord; “And he believed the LORD, and he counted it to him as righteousness.” Genesis 15:6 ESV. So as we believe, trusting God to become the center of our lives we are given that breastplate of righteousness. When we are called to court as a Judge or Juror righteousness is to be our scale. ““You shall do no injustice in court. You shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great, but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor.” Leviticus 19:15 ESV. Truth came with our Savior full of righteousness.; “And the effect of righteousness will be peace, and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust forever.”
Isaiah 32:1 ESV. Righteousness of Jesus brings us the belt of trust ” For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” John 1:17 ESV. We find our righteousness in our Savior Jesus. “And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption,”
1 Corinthians 1:30 ESV. So there it is when we turn from sin and deceit and turn to our Lord Jesus who gives us trust, for Salvation and righteousness. When we begin to get ready for Saintly Service we accept Jesus and put on his righteousness, which becomes our breastplate. “On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God.”Psalm 62:7 ESV ESV..
