Exodus 29:31-3329:31 " And you shall take the ram of the consecration and boil its flesh in the holy place.
29:32 "Then Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the breadthat is in the basket, by the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
29:33 "They shall eat those things with which the atonement was made, to consecrate and to sanctify them; but an outsider shall not eat them, because they are holy.
This is the guarantee of the life of the servants of God/the priests after there is wave offering, offering made by fire, heave offering, and the garments of high priest. The guarantee is eating the flesh and the bread. Thus, the guarantee of God's servants comes from the ministry (God's employment in their lives). Flowing from that, a priest of God should not think the guarantee of daily life but think about how he may minister God to be employed by Him to please Him.
1 Corinthians 9:13-149:13 Do you not know that those who minister the holy things eat of the things of the temple, and those who serve at the altar partake of the offerings of the altar?
9:14 Even so the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should live from the gospel. The servant of God may live everywhere and be guaranteed by God as long as they have the true ministry. Their lives become as hyssop that springs out of the wall.
1 Kings 4:33a
4:33 Also he spoke of trees, from the cedar tree of Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall;
Being employed by God and guaranteed in His mercy, the hyssop has to be dipped in blood, meaning suffering in the flesh together with Jesus, without any sin. Not being dipped in blood, the hyssop is withered. On the contrary, being dipped in blood, the hyssop can be used to save other people (in Gospel) and for the perfection of Christ's body (in teaching Word).
1 Peter 4:12-134:12 Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you;
4:13 but rejoiceto the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.
Afterward, there is Spirit of Glory. The greater fiery trial we have, we are anointed more and God will also employ us much more.
The results will be real as follows:- We have heavenly joy nothing may influence [1 Peter 4:13].
- The Lord is able to perform miracles below:
- Spiritual miracle that is the renewal of our lives from carnal men to glorious men as Jesus is glorious.
Titus 3:5
3:5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
Ephesians 4:24-26, 28-29
4:24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.
4:25 Therefore, putting away lying, "Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor," for we are members of one another.
4:26 "Be angry, and do not sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath,
4:28 Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.
4:29 Let no corrupt wordproceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.
The renewal starts from these matters: - Not lying (verse 25)
- Not being angry until there is no love anymore, not being angry with hatred (verse 26)
- Not stealing the possession of God and of other people (verse 28)
- There is no corrupt word or word discouraging other people (verse 29), until we become His Bride who is ready to welcome His second coming.
- Physical miracle
God is able to perform miracle, not only the spiritual miracle but also the physical one to help us.
God blesses you.
