- 0:00Leviticus chapter 12. Let us pray.
- 0:05Father, we thank you for today. We thank you for waking us up.
- 0:08We thank you for breath. Thank you for food and clean
- 0:12drinking water. Thank you God for access to your
- 0:15word. Thank you God, that you are our
- 0:18everything encapsulating all around us.
- 0:21You're the breath in our lungs, Father.
- 0:24Thank you for giving us the ability to reason and to think
- 0:28and to come to you, Lord, and to know you and be known by you.
- 0:32Thank you for the blood that was shed on Calvary.
- 0:35Thank you God, for salvation. Thank you for saving us to the
- 0:39utmost. Thank you God, that where you
- 0:41are, we will be. Thank you for being here now
- 0:44with us, Lord, as we are in the harvest.
- 0:47Help us Lord, to look up, help us to see our redemption is
- 0:51drawing near. Help us to see that you're out
- 0:54in the fields. Help us to know God, that you're
- 0:56raising up workers unto yourself.
- 0:58Laborers, God, help us to be lovers.
- 1:01Father of Yeshua, we love you. King Jesus, it's all about you.
- 1:05Holy Spirit, well up within us and teach us.
- 1:08Lord, I decrease as you increase, and it's all about
- 1:11King Jesus. It's always been about King
- 1:14Jesus, and it's in its precious name that I pray.
- 1:18Amen. Well, let's start in verse one.
- 1:24And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, Well what did he say?
- 1:27Let's go to verse 2. Speak unto the children of
- 1:30Israel saying if a woman have conceived seed and born a man
- 1:34child, and she shall be unclean, 7 days according to the days of
- 1:39the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
- 1:44So here we're going to get to see what is the law in regarding
- 1:48the cleanliness and the ability to approach God in the tent of
- 1:54meeting for a woman who has just given birth.
- 1:57Verse 3 And in the eighth day of the flesh of his foreskin shall
- 2:01he be circumcised. So we can see here that Jesus
- 2:05fulfilled all of these things on the 8th day they took Him.
- 2:08And this is where you got to see Anna and you got to see Simeon,
- 2:13and they prophesied over Yeshua when he was just a little baby
- 2:18eight days old. Verse 4.
- 2:20And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying 3 and
- 2:2430 days. She shall touch no hallowed
- 2:26thing, nor come into the sanctuary into the days of her
- 2:29purifying be fulfilled. So what you need to understand
- 2:33is this was a time for the mother to be able to bond with
- 2:36the child 5 But if she bear a maid child and she shall be
- 2:40unclean 2 weeks as in her separation and she shall
- 2:43continue in the blood of her purifying 3 score in six days.
- 2:47So here again they have different requirements, a
- 2:51different time of leave for the woman if she was to bear a
- 2:56female instead of a male. 6 And when the days for purifying are
- 3:01fulfilled for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb
- 3:05of the first year for a burnt offering in a young pigeon, or a
- 3:08turtle dove for a sin offering unto the door of the Tabernacle
- 3:12of the congregation unto the priest.
- 3:14So here you get to see that God is going to give a list of what
- 3:20is acceptable unto him. We don't get to make up our own
- 3:24rules, friends, and it doesn't matter if you're uncomfortable
- 3:27with the words on the page. You need to understand is that
- 3:31God is giving them the mandate. He is giving them the guidelines
- 3:35and the guardrails of how he is to be worshipped and how they
- 3:39are to be accepted in that one with the holy God.
- 3:42And listen friends, you need to know that God is the one who
- 3:46sets the precedent. He is the one that gives us our
- 3:50marching orders. We don't get to shake our fist
- 3:52at God and tell God how to behave and what we would do if
- 3:56we were God. We just say yes and Amen to all
- 3:58of the his ways and you need to know the entire law was
- 4:02fulfilled in Jesus Christ. And he said I did not come to
- 4:06abolish the law, but to fulfill it.
- 4:08And that's exactly what he did to the last letter.
- 4:11And isn't it amazing when you go and study the gospels of Jesus
- 4:14Christ and Matthew and Mark and Luke and John, you see these
- 4:18stories pop up where Jesus fulfilled every single one of
- 4:22the requirements. Aren't we thankful for a holy
- 4:25God who sent his only begotten Son so that we he can be
- 4:30innocent and that we can be fulfilled and so that we can
- 4:34make it there into eternity? And we are thankful for a just
- 4:39God and not a fair God, friends, because if he was fair, none of
- 4:43us would ever be able to fulfill every single one of these
- 4:46requirements. Praise God, Hallelujah for Jesus
- 4:50Christ of Nazareth seven who shall offer it before the Lord
- 4:57and making an at one meant for her that she shall be cleansed
- 5:01from her issue of her blood. This is the law for her that has
- 5:04borne a male or a female. So you need to know that all
- 5:08life is in the blood and we need to know that the blood of Jesus
- 5:11Christ covers us and that's how we have life.
- 5:15There is no life apart from Jesus Christ. 8 And if she be
- 5:20not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring 2 turtles and
- 5:23two young pigeons, the one for the burnt offering and the other
- 5:27for the sin offering. And the priest shall make an
- 5:29atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
- 5:32We're only cleansed by the blood of the lamb, friends.
- 5:35We're only made whole by the blood of the lamb, friends.
- 5:37And you see that Mary and Joseph were poor.
- 5:41They were poor parents of a wonderful Immaculate Conception,
- 5:47the Son of God, the Son of man, God in human form.
- 5:52And they were poor. But he was rich and he was
- 5:56emptied of all of his riches and he became poor so that we can be
- 6:00rich in him. He owns the cattle on 1000
- 6:03hills. Every single bit of the ore that
- 6:07is placed in the earth that we place the value of currency in.
- 6:12He placed their friends and then he chose to be born to a couple
- 6:18who were in poverty. What an amazing God we serve
- 6:22this upside down, inside out Kingdom that we're pressing
- 6:25towards. Friends, this paradox.
- 6:28Friends, this is the God that we serve.
- 6:31He has all riches and abundance but chooses to be emptied of
- 6:35Himself. And that's what we have to do.
- 6:37We have to be emptied of ourselves so that we can come
- 6:40unto Him and be cleansed and be made whole and to be covered in
- 6:43the blood of the Lamb. I hope you've been blessed by
- 6:46this amazing chapter in God's Word.
- 6:48I know I sure have. I'm praying for every single one
- 6:51of you. I love you.
- 6:53We'll see you back here tomorrow.
- 6:54God bless you.
