Leviticus 23 ~ And the Lord spoke

Nazareth, childhood home of Jesus, is a plateau watchtower of the Jezreel Plain.
And there is a watchtower put to great use as a storehouse for what
Nazareth deems necessary.

The name Jezreel. Is rather nice, in and of itself.



Leviticus 23


The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, These are the appointed feasts of the Lord that you shall proclaim as holy convocations; they are my appointed feasts.

The Sabbath
3 “Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation. You shall do no work. It is a Sabbath to the Lord in all your dwelling places.

The Passover
4 “These are the appointed feasts of the Lord, the holy convocations, which you shall proclaim at the time appointed for them. 5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight, is the Lord's Passover. 6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord; for seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. 7 On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall not do any ordinary work. 8 But you shall present a food offering to the Lord for seven days. On the seventh day is a holy convocation; you shall not do any ordinary work.”

The Feast of Firstfruits
9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 10 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land that I give you and reap its harvest, you shall bring the sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest, 11 and he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, so that you may be accepted. On the day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. 12 And on the day when you wave the sheaf, you shall offer a male lamb a year old without blemish as a burnt offering to the Lord. 13 And the grain offering with it shall be two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, a food offering to the Lord with a pleasing aroma, and the drink offering with it shall be of wine, a fourth of a hin. 14 And you shall eat neither bread nor grain parched or fresh until this same day, until you have brought the offering of your God: it is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

The Feast of Weeks
15 “You shall count seven full weeks from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering. 16 You shall count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath. Then you shall present a grain offering of new grain to the Lord. 17 You shall bring from your dwelling places two loaves of bread to be waved, made of two tenths of an ephah. They shall be of fine flour, and they shall be baked with leaven, as firstfruits to the Lord. 18 And you shall present with the bread seven lambs a year old without blemish, and one bull from the herd and two rams. They shall be a burnt offering to the Lord, with their grain offering and their drink offerings, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 19 And you shall offer one male goat for a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old as a sacrifice of peace offerings. 20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits as a wave offering before the Lord, with the two lambs. They shall be holy to the Lord for the priest. 21 And you shall make a proclamation on the same day. You shall hold a holy convocation. You shall not do any ordinary work. It is a statute forever in all your dwelling places throughout your generations.

22 “And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, nor shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the Lord your God.”

The Feast of Trumpets
23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe a day of solemn rest, a memorial proclaimed with blast of trumpets, a holy convocation. 25 You shall not do any ordinary work, and you shall present a food offering to the Lord.”

The Day of Atonement
26 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 27 “Now on the tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. It shall be for you a time of holy convocation, and you shall afflict yourselves and present a food offering to the Lord. 28 And you shall not do any work on that very day, for it is a Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the Lord your God. 29 For whoever is not afflicted on that very day shall be cut off from his people. 30 And whoever does any work on that very day, that person I will destroy from among his people. 31 You shall not do any work. It is a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwelling places. 32 It shall be to you a Sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict yourselves. On the ninth day of the month beginning at evening, from evening to evening shall you keep your Sabbath.”

The Feast of Booths
33 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 34 “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month and for seven days is the Feast of Booths to the Lord. 35 On the first day shall be a holy convocation; you shall not do any ordinary work. 36 For seven days you shall present food offerings to the Lord. On the eighth day you shall hold a holy convocation and present a food offering to the Lord. It is a solemn assembly; you shall not do any ordinary work.

37 “These are the appointed feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim as times of holy convocation, for presenting to the Lord food offerings, burnt offerings and grain offerings, sacrifices and drink offerings, each on its proper day, 38 besides the Lord's Sabbaths and besides your gifts and besides all your vow offerings and besides all your freewill offerings, which you give to the Lord.

39 “On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the produce of the land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord seven days. On the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest. 40 And you shall take on the first day the fruit of splendid trees, branches of palm trees and boughs of leafy trees and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days. 41 You shall celebrate it as a feast to the Lord for seven days in the year. It is a statute forever throughout your generations; you shall celebrate it in the seventh month. 42 You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All native Israelites shall dwell in booths, 43 that your generations may know that I made the people of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.”

44 Thus Moses declared to the people of Israel the appointed feasts of the Lord.




Today, I felt the stress of the Year. 
I was compelled to add after wishing a friend, "Happy Birthday," to add, "Next year it won't be 2020. Yay!" My sons are working a lot and this makes them fortunate and, yet, they are working 6 days a week in essential industries and feel burning at both ends of the candle.

The weather is changing to the cooler weather we were all concerned for in Covid-19. I love Daylight Savings Time and cherish the sunlight.  More sunlight brought more hope. I didn't enjoy having Labor Day announce the end of summer.

Rush hours are there, just smaller. I went into a shop to have a Polaris fixed and the shop worker told me, "Basically, I work alone here." I've seen this happen in a local, patio, restaurant. And seen some difficulty there. Our area has few homeless people. And these last few weeks, I've seen 3 similar to this type situations.

Ok, right I've complained. However... yet...
Being sincere is necessary. Helpful. Being on the Straight Path. And. Just as necessary as looking at God's Good Creation, pleasing to Him, and finding the: "Daily He loadeth us with Benefits." 
Psalm 68:19



So, the Scripture is obtained, then we look at God's Word. 
Very positive to discuss Leviticus. We are blessed. We've found the impossible-to-do-all the Books of the Law, the Talmud and all of God's perfections. And God places the majority of His Blessings upon the people trying to please God, keep His Law. Father God, upholding the Universe with His Word, is pleased. So much so, Father God invites us to His Kingdom forever. Jesus tells us - Thank God - He has filled every dot and iota of God's Word. He is helping us. Our Advocate.

Double Blessing.
The Word we begin with He says, "The Lord spoke."
We are upheld. Going forth with God. Immeasurably Blessed.

Continue the Word Journey.
We begin seeing God's Word has brought us Celebration and Holiday. Holiday is Holy Day. The word is simply blended.

Blessed are the eyes that did not see and, yet, Believe.
And look to find what God sends. 
David looked in the trees filled with wind. Elijah looked to the coast to find a rain shower. Samuel heard God speak as he rested. Hezekiah threw himself on the floor, at the top of his house, to be closer to God. (And overcome the generational problems of having a 'practical' biological father!). The Psalmist spoke of the circles of the deep - unseen - and telling us of an unexplainable presence of Father God. Looking around us to find His provision is the Path and Plan and Blessing of God.




Consider how high and wide and deep are the circles of the deep. We can look to see lightning today
and know the solar flares to the ionosphere and magnetosphere, making lightning a journey of the circles of the deep. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birkeland_current

The whole is a whole system, Unity.

Unity.
The three near Homeless situations I've seen lately, all the people had leadership of compassion. 
The message of hope.  One had persistent friendship, practically forcing the conclusion, in a few months of persistance. Another had dignity given and real urging of help via Homelessness networks. Having grown up in the 5th largest city in the USA, even in Teen Bible Studies, we were told to encourage the Homeless to shelters - where real and important help can be given. Our Church partners with others to end Homelessness. It's good to be able to give phone numbers to the shelters. Homelessness has steps to obtain housing and counseling. We have witnessed, in volunteer serving, three different people have an end to Homelessness and have housing. Another message of hope, the formerly Homeless provided with homes - frequently have the remaining Homeless seek to find these solutions. A friendship network.

The weather is changing.
Maybe we can create Daylight Savings Time to be permanent and say more sunlight encourages Health. And until then, realize we want the seasons to advance - ending the time period of Covid-19. The Spanish Flu was basically defeated in two years.

Holidays. Holy Days. Resting.
Holidays, filled with Joy considering Loved ones. Not ordinary time. The Word of God explains "resting" is included. Anticipate rest in the Holidays. Real rest wouldn't be restlessness. God is encouraging us to develop the skill of putting our cares and concerns into His Hands. To actually take a vacation from worrying.

The smaller restaurants and shops. Well, they are open. The investors feel there is hope for the business.
And traveling into Houston last week, we saw working stores with lights on. I saw one business was closed and looked again and saw the Produce Truck loading up. Open is good.  Masks are great.

Time. 
Rest is carved out about now. Time to spread out gift giving. Stretch the bill paying to cover the gifts. Include your family. Create positive ideas and games to share. Leviticus is explaining to create a plan. Unity.



Abba, Father!

Our Abba,  together, we pray in unison with Jesus - to increase the Holy Spirit.

John 1:16 ~ For from His fullness we have all received, grace upon grace


 







Yesterday, we talked about God's Blessings are the most explained sitting next to the Law of God. Pretty tough work. Sometimes, the most beautiful portions of the Scripture travel on to explain how the author feels about wickedness. When we live in Grace, the wrath of God is Jesus paying His Life for us in eternal life.  The anger of God is gone. The needed explanation of the two different aspects of worship, or Loving God, has this in His Word, is important. We are seen by God our Father, exactly as we are.

God is saying by the opposites in the same paragraph - Come as You Are.


The Scriptures are filled with emotion. An emotional time for most of us. Swamped in the boat, we have all felt. However, Jesus is Working today. He will calm the storm. Speaking His Word. The Policy of God gives us - - - encouragement. God tells us Heaven's Gate is open always. Never closed. The Light of God always leaves the Light on. The Light won't let the dark overcome. God has made His Word clear. Beautiful in His Word, is next to what is worrisome. Deliberately God overcomes.

Revelation 21:25-27
On no day will its gates ever be shut

For there will be no night there. The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.


Psalm 39

For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

1 I said, “I will watch my ways
    and keep my tongue from sin;
I will put a muzzle on my mouth
    while in the presence of the wicked.”
2 So I remained utterly silent,
    not even saying anything good.
But my anguish increased;
3     my heart grew hot within me.
While I meditated, the fire burned;
    then I spoke with my tongue:

4 “Show me, Lord, my life’s end
    and the number of my days;
    let me know how fleeting my life is.
5 You have made my days a mere handbreadth;
    the span of my years is as nothing before you.
Everyone is but a breath,
    even those who seem secure.

6 “Surely everyone goes around like a mere phantom;
    in vain they rush about, heaping up wealth
    without knowing whose it will finally be.

7 “But now, Lord, what do I look for?
    My hope is in you.
8 Save me from all my transgressions;
    do not make me the scorn of fools.
9 I was silent; I would not open my mouth,
    for you are the one who has done this.
10 Remove your scourge from me;
    I am overcome by the blow of your hand.
11 When you rebuke and discipline anyone for their sin,
    you consume their wealth like a moth—
    surely everyone is but a breath.

12 “Hear my prayer, Lord,
    listen to my cry for help;
    do not be deaf to my weeping.
I dwell with you as a foreigner,
    a stranger, as all my ancestors were.
13 Look away from me, that I may enjoy life again
    before I depart and am no more.”


Hebrews 10:22 
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, 
with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience 
and our bodies washed with pure water.

Ephesians 2:8 
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, 
it is the gift of God!



Abba, Father!

Our Abba, we pray in unison with Jesus - to increase the Holy Spirit.

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever,
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.

Acts 7:48-50 ~ Heaven is His Throne





We have talked about God's purpose for us in life being the first verses of John 14. We are invited to God's House - why wouldn't God send us circumstances to show what foundation we built upon and where we built to eternity.

We have talked about the Exodus being God's care about the quality of life available.

Is God interested in Sustained Happiness?








We are always seeking the Balance.
 If we build on the foundation and fortify our lives to remain secure in God's Blessing - have we risked enough to do for the least of the Kingdom of God - where Jesus says what we do with the least of the brethren - we have done to Christ Himself.

God is telling us to build - God is telling us to risk.

In fact, God tells us after we build on the Rock of Christ that the Holy Spirit comes into Mose's life as fire. And also to the Disciples of Jesus Christ. Hebrews, Paul with the Holy Spirit, tells us our God is a consuming fire.




Acts 7:48-50




Yet the Most High does not dwell in houses made by hands, as the prophet says,

49 “‘Heaven is my throne,
and the earth is my footstool.
What kind of house will you build for me, says the Lord,
or what is the place of my rest?
50 Did not my hand make all these things?’


We do not Give God happiness to buy His Joy. 
Abraham believed God and God considered him righteous. Abraham is a prime example. He went where God asked Him to Go. Abraham argued to God the Almighty for Mercy for others.

David believed God's major component is Love and Mercy.

And the Scriptures support the Scriptures. 
Abraham went to lengths to move where God told him. David went to lengths to have the anointing of God. Moses? What does he tell us of the Blessings of God? Actually, Moses travels far to tell of the Blessings of God and these are hidden in all the Books we say are boring. Filled with problems we don't face. Filled with the Law. The Truth is the Blessings of God are surrounded by works of faith in every day life.

Did they fail? 
Yes, all of the people of God have failed. All of them. And in belief rise in God again. We all deserve the judgment of God and we all have His Grace in faith.






Why would God surround the Blessings of God with the Law we cannot uphold? 

Why would God place the Blessings of God surrounded with boring rules. It's probably an analogy. We can't!!! Why Try???

The Grace of Jesus on Easter morning saying, "Your Father and mine." What Grace of a man flogged, beaten, mocked, giving HIS Life and giving us Grace. Worth the effort of try for the Goodness of God to us. He sees us. He wants us.

And one more case for why try? 

If you had to pick some of the horrors to avoid of the Pentateuch to come home and live with you, you'd probably pick to try for God. God has a clue.






Why did God our Father surround the absolute deepest and specific Blessings of Father God around 5 Books becoming increasingly difficult to read. The accusation is they are tedious and boring. An analogy of Life. The thinking we do at traffic lights is our life. What we think of as we begin the day. Think in the shower. The chores we repeat. Caution: Life is Happening.

We lay down our lives to have life. We give this life to others. No greater Love is to lay down our lives for one another.

And in this is tucked ... Jabez. 
The passion of the 1990s. Blessed by being more noble. Tucked into each day is the amazement of the Blessings of God. 

Keep trudging. Jabez had sustained happiness.

Who else has sustained happiness? 
Recently I had the privilege of praying over prayers offered to God. I wept for the Graciousness of the Prayers. The real prayers said, "I know Jesus. I am ok. I have people I love who don't know Jesus. Who live outside of His Grace and have tremendous difficulties." Just like Abraham. Just like David. Mercy for others.






Look at that Happiness and Consuming Fire photos match. Hmmm.

The Consuming Fire of God does not consume. 
Not Moses. Not the Bush. Not the Disciples. Jesus told us His yoke is easy. Many very devote Christians say to themselves, "What did I do?" St. Augustine answered. We have small lives and if we intensely love the few who are interested in us - we have done the call of Jesus. When we offer hope to the people we have been given by God in our lives - we have done well. God is God.


How will we please God? We believe Father God. 


We believe, we believe, we believe God has established all this life - all the prophets pointing to Jesus - Jesus Proclaims, Lives, Tells our hearts - God is for you!!! GOD LOVES YOU. All this life is for you to find you believe in the One God has sent to bring you - to live - in God's House. 1 Peter 1 tells us God's plan is so very precious to you, Angels longed to read of this plan for a very, very long time.







Abba, Father

Our Abba, we pray in unison with Jesus - to increase the Holy Spirit.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
