Divine Encounters

Day 45 Reading: Num. 18:1- Num. 20:29 God's Kingdom is full of order. Anything that speaks chaos in our lives on meeting the Word of God is introduced to the order of God's Kingdom. Aaron and his sons were called into the priesthood while the rest of the Levites would serve in the Tabernacle and also serve the priesthood. The Levites were not to handle the things of the sanctuary.  Tithing is not just for the church member. Even the Levite serving in the Tabernacle was to tithe. God expects those serving Him to be tithers. The revelation of the tithe is be sought and understood. The tithe didn't begin in the Law. The tithe was in the dispensation of Abraham where he tithed to Melchizedek.  God expects us to give Him the best, not the remains.  Too many times we give God what is not the best. Sacrificial offerings are to be the best that we can give to God. Abraham gave Isaac. God expects you and I to give nothing but the best.  A red heifer that ...

Day 23 Reading: Ex. 21:1- Ex. 23:33 God loves order. The laws given to Moses reveal God's disposition towards order. The laws may have been on everything from day to day life however they reveal that God has sights on all that pertains our lives. The laws also show us how we are to behave towards God and one another. The laws reveal how much God hates unrighteousness. Freedom from slavery was important to God. None of His children would be slaves forever unless it was willingly. As God created the earth in 6 days and rested on the 7th day,He desired that those in slavery also enjoy this principle of rest. Learn to walk in this principle in all matters. Understand the power of releasing others to their freedom. Understand the importance of rest to God. Even the land was to take a period of rest. This principle of rest has been missed by many and is it any wonder that many are broken.  God expects that we deal with situations that may bring harm. The harmful ox that ...

Day 11 Reading Gen. 34:1-Gen. 36:43 Many times our motives are not pleasant in the sight of God. Jacob's daughter is raped by  Shechem. Shechem then pleads with his father to help create a peaceful solution to his error. Shechem was innocent in desiring to marry Dinah, however, he didn't respect her. We live in a day and age where purity in marriage is disregarded. Sex before marriage is considered normal today, however, that is not God's standard. There is a need to examine ourselves of what is considered allowable but is not pure before God. Shechem didn't understand that he had defiled a child of the covenant. I don't think he understood the power of a prophetic name on a covenant child. He was just mesmerised, enthralled, enchanted by this young lady and didn't have any patience or regard for order. God is a God of order. Principles reveal order. When submitted to the principles of God divine order follows our lives. Dinah in Hebrew means ju...
