Moses required Israel to pray a specific prayer shortly after they settled in the Promised Land. They must bring the first tithes of their crops to the Levites and certify that it was God who brought them into the land and blessed them, that God was their God, and that they were His people. Verbally certify (confirm) your relationship with God occasionally.
Deuteronomy 26:17 - "Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken unto his voice."
PRINCIPALS - "Eleazar"
God forbade Aaron the High Priest to enter Canaan because of the golden calf episode. As forty years of wandering came to a close, God told Moses to anoint Aaron's son, Eleazar, as his successor. Moses had clothed Aaron in priestly garments long ago. Now he would strip him and give them to Eleazar. God gives. God takes away. We are all expendable. Make the most of your calling while you have time.
Numbers 20:28 - "...Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and put them upon Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there in the top of the mount."
PRINCIPLES - "Inheriting Your Portion"
Moses numbered the men of Israel to determine how the Promised Land would be apportioned once they arrived there. Joshua and Caleb were the only survivors from those who had been twenty years and older at Kadesh Barnea. The younger generation who had NOT sinned received the rich rewards their fathers foolishly lost. If you won't claim God's promises, somebody else will!
Numbers 26:53 - "...To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less inheritance: to every one shall his inheritance be given according to those that were numbered of him."
PROPHECIES - "Covenant of Everlasting Priesthood"
Before entering Canaan, many Israelites committed whoredoms with Moabite women, who enticed them to worship their god, Baalpeor. God told Moses to slaughter the whoremongers and idolaters. Even as Moses began, Phinehas (Eleazar's son) caught an Israelite taking a Moabite woman into a tent. With a javelin, Phinehas zealously slew them both. God told Moses to reward Phinehas with a covenant of "everlasting priesthood."
Numbers 25:13 - "...he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel."
Enforce The devil is an outlaw and even though Jesus has taken away his authority in the earth, even though he has no legal right to kill or steal from the children of God, he’ll do it anyway...as long as you’ll let him get away with it. You must enforce his defeat by speaking the Word of God in faith. Act on His Word now. Demand that sickness and disease leave you in the Name of Jesus. Then refuse to back off that demand. Resist the devil with all you’ve got. He might fight you for a while, but sooner or later, he will have to flee from you! Clickhere preaching |
