Leviticus 7verse1-7 provides details about the “guilt”, or “trespass”, offering. Remember that this offering related to deceitful acts, where the guilty party had sought to hide the truth. The Apostle John tells us in his first letter and in chapter 1 verses 5-10 that Jesus is our guilt offering. This, says the Apostle, is only to those who confess and forsake their sins. Verse 8 speaks of the Burnt Offering, which represents a life of devotion to the Almighty. Verses 9-10 speak of grain, or meal offerings. These offerings spoke of the work of the hands of the faithful. These offerings, were free will offerings and could stand alone, or may accompany the Burnt Offering, or the Peace Offering spoken of in verses 11-21 and 28-34. The Peace Offering spoke of fellowship with God (and as a consequence of this, with our Lord Jesus Christ (1 John 1 verses1-4). It is through the work of our Lord Jesus Christ that we have peace (Ephesians 2 verses11-22). Psalm 106 completes Book 4, the Numbers (or wilderness psalms). The Psalm is one of thanksgiving to the LORD for His faithfulness seen throughout the nation of Israel's entire existence. Verses 1-3 tell us that His awesome deeds done for Israel are multitude. So His people must praise Him for these acts. Verses 4-5 are the writer's personal prayer for deliverance. Verses 6-7 are an acknowledgment of wrong and an acceptance that the nation's sufferings were deserved. From verse 8 onwards the Psalm recounts the Israelites' history. Despite Israel's misdeeds the Almighty delivered them time and time again. The Psalmist starts at the Red Sea from verses 8-11 and tells of delivery for His people and destruction to their enemies. It produced a response from His people (v12), which verse 13 says, was soon forgotten. Verses 14-20 recounts their terrible behaviour in the wilderness and their rebellion against Moses. Verse 21 summarises by saying that they constantly forgot Yahweh's loving kindness; which had (v22) been abundantly apparent in Egypt. Moses constantly stood as a mediator between God and His people. Verses 24-27 further explains their rebellious behaviour in the wilderness. Verses 28-31 speak of their failure at Baal Peor when they had reached the borders of the Promised Land. This time it was the zeal of Phineas that saved Israel. Verses 32-33 tell of their constant criticism which finally broke the spirit of Moses at Kadesh Meribah. In exasperation Moses failed to glorify God when he in anger struck the rock. Verses 34-39 illustrated that the pattern of failure characterised their entry into and possession of the Promised Land. Idolatry remained among them until their Sovereign allowed their foes to afflict His people (verses 40-43). Nevertheless their compassionate Creator saw their distress, throughout the times of the judges and in His pity saved them (verses 44-46). The Psalm concludes with a plea for the mercy of the LORD to continue with His people and for this they should still praise Him. In 1 Corinthians 15 the Apostle outlines the incontrovertible proofs of Christ's resurrection before hundreds of eye witnesses, in many locations and over a prolonged period – 40 days: Acts 1 verses1-3. It could not be said that Christ was not resurrected. And thank God for that; since apart from that event our sins could not be forgiven – verses 12-19. Our Lord Jesus Christ Lord rose 3 days after his crucifixion and was the first fruits of the resurrection – his faithful disciples will join him when they are raised at his coming – verses 21-23. The process of perfecting the faithful in Christ's 1,000 year rule is described in verses 24-28. By God sending His Son to the earth to set up the long promised kingdom. A 1,000 years later will complete this stage of the Almighty's purpose with the earth. That purpose is spoken of in Numbers 14 verses 20-21; Psalm 72 verses 1-20 – read and consider; Habbakuk 2 verses 14, 20; Revelation chapters 20-22. At this time the Lord Jesus Christ will hand over the perfect earth to his Father; who as Supreme Creator will be all and in all. How impossible are trinitarian notions when we are told that our Lord will acknowledge his subservient position to His Father, God. A short discourse follows on the need for each of us sin prone beings to be baptised, that we may be raised to eternal life. A treatise on the differences between our natural bodies and those raised and bestowed upon with the life from heaven comes next. Paul tells of the superiority of Christ over Adam, who in many ways was a parable of the Son of Man – the Christ. What a time that will soon come and how we yearn for it (read of it in Isaiah 25:6-9; and Hosea 13:14, as cited by the Apostle). Finally, read aloud and meditate on verses 57-58.

1 Corinthians 10 warns against idolatry. It was the root cause of the infant Jewish nation's sins as they left Egypt under Moses. Paul explains that their experiences were typical of, and in common with, those of the believers; and hence a clarion warning lest we think we stand; yet fall through pride. Verses 1-5 contain a warning to the Corinthian believers against complacency since the experiences of Israel leaving Egypt were both symbolic of our walk in Christ and in reality very similar to all followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul says that God's provision of water is like the spiritual drink of His Word and our sustaining throughout our wanderings in the wilderness of life. Verses 6-13 warn us against idolatry which is called “covetousness” in Colossians 3:5. Trials are certain to come to every disciple. However we need not be discouraged since our Heavenly Father has promised that the trial will not be greater than we can bear. And even if it seems unbearable that He will provide us with a way of escape. For our part we must pray: “Lead us not into temptation, ie trial”. We also need to live our lives faithfully in avoiding temptations which arise due to our foolish decisions and actions. Verses 14-22 give practical advice in avoiding a likely problem from a foolish decision to partake of idol worship – in the belief that idols are non entities: 1 Corinthians 8 the entire chapter. The Apostle explains the dangers of rationalising in that chapter and here in chapter 10. A failure to understand these matters and to behave as God would have His children do is extremely dangerous. Paul says that it is in effect setting ourselves against God. The fellowship we enjoy with the Father and His Son is not to be entangled with the beliefs and practices of those who do not understand the teachings of the Word of God. From verses 23-30 Paul tells us that nothing in the life of the believer when it comes to eating food and drinking wine is forbidden to believers because God owns and has given these blessings to His children. However it is their responsibility to not partake of these to excess. Believers also have a responsibility to respect the conscience of their fellow disciples. The rights of faithful believers should not be exercised if the exercising of those rights would result in a loss of faith for others, and lead them away from the kingdom of God. The final two verses of the chapter tell us that, whatever we do, “Do all to the glory of God”. And since we are commanded to do all to the Father's glory that glory must be chiefly moral, not just physical. Contemplate carefully the words of Habbakuk 2:14 and compare these words with Jeremiah 22 verse 15-16. A further lesson we need to learn from Paul's example and emulate is how his life demonstrates that in his life he shows us how he did all to the glory of God.

Exodus 39 verse 1-5 tell of Aholiab's supervision of the skilful women weavers, who wove the clothes of the priests. Verses 6-7 speak of the engraving of the gems set in the breastplate of the High Priest. Verses 8-21 describe the breastplate of the High Priest and outline its construction. It was of pure gold. Verses 22-26 describe the tunic of the High Priest and the alternating bells and pomegranates surrounding the hem nearest the ground. Notes on the significance of these have already been published. Verses 27-29 speak of the clothes of the regular priests. Verses 30-31 talk of the inscribed golden plate worn upon the turban of the High Priest. Verses 31-43 speak of the completion of all the work of the Tabernacle; according to the instructions given to Moses by the LORD in Mount Sinai. Exodus 40 tells of the day when the Tabernacle was erected. And it describes how the glory of Yahweh filled the Tabernacle. The cloud that had led the nation through the wilderness filled the Tabernacle. The cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night continued to guide the nation for the next 38 years. When the cloud departed from off the Tabernacle Israel would pack everything up and follow it. Psalm 102 is an amazing Messianic writing that tells of the writer's pouring out his heart to his helper and encourager. It is a plea from the bottom of the Psalmist's heart. The Psalm acknowledges the faithfulness and steadfastness of God. It is a Psalm which focuses on God's timeliness. Yahweh speedily answers the cry of His servant; He favours Zion (v13) at the set time; He regards the prayer of the destitute (v17); He hears and responds to the groaning of the prisoners (v20). Through all these trials His servants trust His unchanging ways, His compassion, His stability and His strength. He delivers them because of His delight in His children. And for their deliverance they praise and extol Him. The superscription of this Psalm in the ESV reads, “A prayer of one afflicted, when he is faint and pours out his complaint before the LORD”. Undoubtedly this tells us of the Messiah. Every figure of speech in this Psalm speaks of Christ – he is the one whose days are consumed and whose bones burn; he is the lonely and taunted one; he is the one who carried the burden of our iniquities; he is the prisoner groaning to be released from the trials of mortally; he is the one whose life has been cut short in the midst of his years (Isaiah 53). He is also preeminently the one raised up as the Captain of our salvation to lead his people to the kingdom and in the praise of their Almighty Saviour. The writer to the Romans tells us in chapter 11 that Israel's restoration is a sign of the nearing resurrection and the glorious kingdom in Zion. 1 Corinthians 10 warns against idolatry. It was the root cause of the infant Jewish nation's sins as they left Egypt under Moses. Paul explains that their experiences were typical of, and in common with, those of the believers; and hence a clarion warning lest we think we stand; yet fall through pride.

Thoughts on the readings for February 9th (Exodus 17, 18, Psalm 72, Mark 5)

Exodus 17 tells us how Israel's God provided water in the desert from the rock, when His people were extremely thirsty. And as the people had shown they always grumbled against the LORD, verse 3. This was typical of God's provision, for us in His Son the Lord Jesus Christ (see 1 Corinthians 10 verses 1-6). Moses struck the rock, representing Israel's crucifying our Lord Jesus; out of whose side flowed water (John 19 verses 34-35, 1 John 3 verses 6-8; note that the three that bare witness are the Spirit, the water and the blood – verse 7 in the AV is a faulty insertion by a Jesuit monk (in the Middle Ages). The finding of water immediately brought Israel into war with the Amalekites, who were killing the stragglers of Israel (Deuteronomy 25 verses 17-19 contrast with the attitude of the Israelites who had triumphantly departed Egypt in Psalm 105 verse 37. Their spirit failed with time and they failed to put their trust in the Living God (see Hebrews 3). Amalek came and fought with Israel and were defeated – not by might, nor by power, but by Yahweh's Spirit being exercised energetically on the behalf of His people in response to Moses' prayer. Note when Moses' hands dropped Amalek prevailed; but when they were extended upwards invoking the LORD's help for His people, Israel prevailed (see Hebrews 12 verses 12-14). He was supported in prayer by two men – Aaron the high priest; and Hur, (meaning “white” speaking of those who gain the victory through Christ) the prince of the tribe of Judah. So collectively these three men spoke of prophet, priest and king. Moses, Aaron and Hur agonised in prayer in order to aid Yahweh's warriors, led by Yahoshua (meaning “Yah's salvation). Israel's weapons were not carnal, but mighty to God (2 Corinthians 10 verses 3-6). This battle was against sin; and secondly symbolised Armageddon, when Gog (the chief of Russia) and its clans invade Israel in the near future). Consider Moses' prophecy about this in Numbers 24 verse 19. This is the reason that in verse 16 of the 17th chapter of Exodus God declared perpetual warfare on Amalek. And as emblem of His declared will a banner, or ensign was set up – verses 14 and 15 and a book written, and its words rehearsed in Joshua's ears – compare Isaiah's 4th chapter as speaking of the end of the process of destroying Amalek. Chapter 18 of Exodus explains the wise advice given to Moses by his father in law, Jethro. Jethro had taken custody of his daughter Zipporah and his two grandchildren from Moses, apparently when Moses had confronted Pharaoh in Egypt. Moses showed great respect for his father in law, who met him to return Moses' family back to him. Jethro was delighted by the report of Yahweh's wonders, which had been seen in Egypt. And Jethro, who appeared to have some familiarity with the Lord GOD of Israel, now acknowledged Yahweh's supremacy. The following day Jethro observed the great effort Moses exerted in judging the people. Jethro told Moses such efforts were not sustainable. He needed support in the work from honest, trustworthy men who hated bribery and covetousness. A hierarchy of help was established; leaving Moses as judge only in the most difficult cases. It also enabled Moses to prioritise his work as the mediator between God and His people. After this Jethro returned to his home in Midian. Psalm 72 is a final prayer from the pen of David, verse 20; which provides a glorious ending to Book 2 of the Psalms – the Exodus psalms which focus on divine deliverance. The Psalm is typically about the greatness of Solomon's rule (symbolically) and of the Christ's kingdom on earth, soon to be a reality. David prays that Solomon may be helped by Yahweh to rule the LORD's people justly. The mountains and hills in verse 3 speak of powerful and weaker nations. Solomon was at peace with many nations which paid tribute to him and benefited from the peace and stability that Solomon's rule brought to them. His reign was characterised by wise decisions that protected the poor and needy. This will be entirely true throughout the thousand year rule of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ. Verse 5 tells us that David is describing our Lord's kingdom (see 2 Samuel 23 verses 5-7 – note how the following verses in Psalm 72 verses 6-9 follow the same vein of thought to the earlier verses of David's words in 2 Samuel 23). Verse 10 speaks of the submission of Arabic nations to Jesus Christ, spoken of in Isaiah chapters 60 and 63. All nations will voluntarily submit to a faithful and benevolent rule (verses 11-14). The suppliants from all nations will daily thank God for the kind and gracious king that they were provided by God Almighty (verse 15). The next verse tells of the abundance of food that the earth will produce. Blessings characterise Messiah's realm. The 17th verse says in the Hebrew that our Lord Jesus' name will be to continue his Father's eternal name – Jesus means “Yah saves”: Matthew 1 verses 21-23. David praises God in verses 18-19 for His glorious deeds in filling the earth with His glory Numbers 14 verse 21; Habbakuk 2 verses 14, 20). When this has been accomplished David declares that his prayer will be completed (fulfilled, ended). How significant to finalise the Exodus psalms with this writing. In Mark 5 we read about two great miracles of healing. The first of the mad man, Legion as he called himself. Many have speculated on the nature of his malady – perhaps it was multiple personalities; maybe his brain seemed to pound continuously, reminding him of the tramp of Rome's legions. But, whatever it was Jesus completely heals him. The man represents the relentless turmoil and untameable nature of the human condition. It would seem that in this Jewish region they were keeping pigs, something that was contrary to Mosaic law. The man asks, as evidence of his healing, that his sickness be transferred to the pigs. As this happens the pigs, 2,000 in number, ran violently from the cliff into the sea. This lemming like behaviour illustrates the irrationality of humans. The man, now sane, sits to receive the Gospel news. The townsfolk, annoyed by their loss of profit urge Jesus to leave. Legion is commissioned to go the Decapolis and spread the word among other Gentiles. Jesus while on his way to the synagogue at the beseeching of its ruler, Jairus (meaning ‘enlightened') is delayed by a woman with a seemingly incurable discharge of blood. The woman is, because of her great faith, cured and addressed most significantly as ‘daughter'. At precisely the same time Jairus is told his daughter has died. Jesus raises the daughter with the words of the shepherd “little lamb arise”. The Apostle John tells us in his fifth chapter that the time will come when the voice of the Son of God will call from the grave his sheep.

Preacher: Amy Druck Scripture: Habakkuk 1:5-2:1 5 “Look at the nations and watch—and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told. I am raising up the Babylonians, that ruthless and impetuous people, who sweep across the whole earth to seize dwellings not their own. 7 They are a feared and dreaded people; they are a law to themselves and promote their own honor. 8 Their horses are swifter than leopards, fiercer than wolves at dusk. Their cavalry gallops headlong; their horsemen come from afar. They fly like an eagle swooping to devour; 9 they all come intent on violence. Their hordes advance like a desert wind and gather prisoners like sand. 10 They mock kings and scoff at rulers. They laugh at all fortified cities; by building earthen ramps they capture them. 11 Then they sweep past like the wind and go on— guilty people, whose own strength is their god.” Habakkuk's Second Complaint 12 Lord, are you not from everlasting? My God, my Holy One, you will never die. You, Lord, have appointed them to execute judgment; you, my Rock, have ordained them to punish. 13 Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing. Why then do you tolerate the treacherous? Why are you silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves? 14 You have made people like the fish in the sea, like the sea creatures that have no ruler. 15 The wicked foe pulls all of them up with hooks, he catches them in his net, he gathers them up in his dragnet; and so he rejoices and is glad. 16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net and burns incense to his dragnet, for by his net he lives in luxury and enjoys the choicest food. 17 Is he to keep on emptying his net, destroying nations without mercy? 2 I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this complaint.

He prophesied in the time of Joachim, just before the Jewish people were taken into captivity in Babylon. He himself escaped captivity, and after Jerusalem was destroyed, returned to his homeland. Once he was taking some food to his harvesters when an Angel transported him to Babylon to feed the Prophet Daniel in the lions' den, then bore him back to Judea (this is told in the full version of the book of Daniel, ch. 6 LXX). The third chapter of his prophecy is used as the Fourth Ode of the Matins Canon(the Ode is usually sung in full only in monasteries during Lent, but the eirmos of the Fourth Ode, sung in many parishes, usually refers to the Prophet). His holy relics were found through a revelation in Palestine during the reign of Theodosius the Great, and a chapel built there. His name means "Father of the Resurrection."

Nahum is counted as the seventh of the Minor Prophets. He reposed in peace. His name means 'consolation' or 'repose.' Five of the Prophets (Nahum, Habbakuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, and Daniel) are commemorated in December. At one time a Feast of the Twelve Prophets was celebrated on December 4 at the Church of the Resurrection, but this feast is no longer on the calendar.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life…” You see, God is holy and perfect. In fact, the book of Habbakuk says that “His eyes are too pure to look upon evil; He can't tolerate wrong.” And according to Matthew, the standard we all must meet is to “be perfect, as our Heavenly Father is perfect.” You see, we have a big problem. And there is a payment due or a wage for our wrongdoings…and that is death. But praise be to God! He had a plan to redeem us. He sent His Son, Jesus, to live a perfect life and die on the cross in our place. And all who believe in Him, “He gives the right to become children of God.” We can sing, “Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe. Sin had left a crimson stain; He washed it white as snow.” Learn how to share this Good News with others by visiting our website at www.sharelife.today. That's www.sharelife.today.

God is speaking to us all the time, but like a radio, we have to know how to "tune in." I learned this technique some 15 years ago and it forever changed my life. There is more than one way to hear from God, but if you are not yet able to have long two-way conversations with God - this episode will teach you how. It is based on the teaching by Mark Virkler entitled "The 4 Keys to Hearing God's Voice." https://www.cwgministries.org/store/4-keys-hearing-gods-voicePlease try this. You won't regret it. It may take more than one try to get it, but don't give up. Jesus wants to talk to you! Scriptures referenced in this episode: John 10:27, Habbakuk 2:1-2

Episode 174 :: Douglas McKelvey :: Stories of Leaning into Advent, Lament, and Living with Every Moment Holy

Simply Stories Podcast

Today, I have the absolute pleasure of sharing my conversation with the one and only Douglas McKelvey. Douglas is a songwriter, author, and liturgy writer extraordinaire. I have never met someone like Douglas. His gift with words and passion for Christ cultivates a visceral invitation to be more present in this life, to find your fight again as you walk this weary way, and speaks to our hope of the next life with Jesus. Douglas shares with me his story of what led him to Nashville, TN, his journey from songwriting to fiction writing and the idea of unpacking his belief that every moment in this life is sacramental, and sometimes words can help us to be present. Thus, the birth of Every Moment Holy. There are now 3 volumes of Every Moment Holy, each unique in how they offer opportunities for us to be awake to the moments we are living in. Whether that is something as simple as waking up in the morning and enjoying a sunrise, something unique like beginning a novel, or the keeping of bees, holiday celebrations, to going on a trip, there is a liturgy for it in one of these volumes. Many of these liturgies, especially in volume two, also hold space for the hard and holy moments around grief and lament, and even for those facing the end of their life. I cannot begin to express how much many of these liturgies have ministered to me as we've walked through many losses, and the anniversary of losses, over the last few years. As it is that time of year, Douglas and I also talk about how to embrace the season of advent, which asks our hearts to prepare Christ room, but also to ask “where is our hope?” as we wait for Jesus to come back again. He even blesses us with a reading of his “A Liturgy for the Start of the Christmas Season.” I hope all of this conversation serves as a blessing for you in this season. I hope it is serves as an invitation to prepare Him room not just for now, but for always. And I hope and pray, it reminds you that you are not alone in this life, no matter how it may seem, and Jesus is coming back for us. You matter. Your story matters. Merry Christmas!

He prophesied in the time of Joachim, just before the Jewish people were taken into captivity in Babylon. He himself escaped captivity, and after Jerusalem was destroyed, returned to his homeland. Once he was taking some food to his harvesters when an Angel transported him to Babylon to feed the Prophet Daniel in the lions' den, then bore him back to Judea (this is told in the full version of the book of Daniel, ch. 6 LXX). The third chapter of his prophecy is used as the Fourth Ode of the Matins Canon(the Ode is usually sung in full only in monasteries during Lent, but the eirmos of the Fourth Ode, sung in many parishes, usually refers to the Prophet). His holy relics were found through a revelation in Palestine during the reign of Theodosius the Great, and a chapel built there. His name means "Father of the Resurrection."

He was a Galilean of the tribe of Simeon. The Old Testament book that bears his name foretells the destruction of Nineveh, the capital of Assyria, by the Medes, and the restoration of the Kingdom of Judah; all of this came to pass. Nahum is counted as the seventh of the Minor Prophets. He reposed in peace. His name means 'consolation' or 'repose.' Five of the Prophets (Nahum, Habbakuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, and Daniel) are commemorated in December. At one time a Feast of the Twelve Prophets was celebrated on December 4 at the Church of the Resurrection, but this feast is no longer on the calendar. The days leading up to Christ's Nativity contain many commemorations of the faithful remnant of Israel, all of whose hopes were fulfilled in the birth of the Messiah.

Read his prophecies (which include the prophecy that Christ would be born in Bethlehem, Micah 5:2) in the Old Testament book that bears his name. He was a contemporary of the prophets Isaiah, Amos and Hosea, and is ranked sixth among the "minor" prophets. It was he who prophesied that the Christ would be born in Bethlehem. (This is a different Micah from the one mentioned in 1 Chronicles 22:8, who lived earlier). Micah was buried in his home village of Morasth in the land of Judah; his holy relics were found along with those of the prophet Habbakuk during the reign of St Theodosius the Great — their location was given by a revelation to Zebennus, Bishop of Eleutheropolis.
