  Leviticus chapter one, let us pray.
• 0:05
  Our Father who's in heaven, we thank you God, for another day
• 0:09
  to come and to worship you in spirit and truth.
• 0:13
  We thank you for the blood that ran red down that cross.
• 0:18
  We thank you that it covers us from the top of our head to the
• 0:21
  bottom of our feet. We thank you, God, for the water
• 0:25
  that spilled out of his side. Lord, we worship Jesus Christ
• 0:31
  the anointed 1, the Messiah, the all sufficient 1.
• 0:37
  Lord, we worship him with every single molecule, every single
• 0:44
  cell. Father, we pulsate towards the
• 0:49
  light, towards the sun. Lord, we are thankful for
• 0:53
  Yeshua. We're thankful for the Crown of
• 0:56
  Thorn pushed upon his brow. Lord, we are thankful for the
• 1:01
  dice that were cast, Lord, to divide his garments, Lord, we're
• 1:06
  thankful, Lord, that they found no fault in him.
• 1:12
  Lord, we are thankful, God, that He chose willingly to go and to
• 1:16
  sacrifice himself so that we could be there with you.
• 1:21
  Lord, I pray for all of those who are outside the camp.
• 1:25
  Lord, I pray for all those who have yet to come into the fold.
• 1:29
  Lord, my heart is broken today for those who are willingly
• 1:34
  choosing to go down these paths of destruction.
• 1:38
  God, rescue them. Father, bring the prodigals
• 1:42
  home. God, I pray that you will
• 1:45
  restore relationships. God, I pray that the children
• 1:51
  will come back to the parents. God, I pray in the name of
• 1:55
  Jesus. God, that marriages will be
• 1:58
  restored. Lord, that we will be the
• 2:01
  ministers of reconciliation, that we will be more than
• 2:04
  conquerors, that we will be the peace makers in the land.
• 2:07
  God, I pray against all the schemes of the enemy.
• 2:10
  God, bind the enemy today in the mighty name of Jesus Christ,
• 2:16
  cast him into the judgment that you have a waiting for him.
• 2:18
  God, I pray that he has no hold on our households.
• 2:23
  God. I pray that you, Lord, will get
• 2:26
  all the glory that will put you on the rightful throne of our
• 2:30
  hearts. God, that there will be no
• 2:33
  lesser lovers, no idols. God that we'll bow down to Lord
• 2:37
  or swear by God. I pray that we can have clean
• 2:40
  hands and a pure heart. I pray God that we can enter in
• 2:43
  to the throne room of grace, the holiest of holy places.
• 2:47
  God, shower us with the Shekinah glory today.
• 2:56
  Thank you for the opportunity to come, Lord, and to learn to
• 3:00
  reason, to dine, and to sulk. God, I pray that you'll rebuke
• 3:05
  the Devourer from off of this time.
• 3:08
  Teach us your mighty ways, Lord. Help us to come up to where you
• 3:13
  are, Father. Lord, I pray we'll feel the
• 3:16
  depths of your love today for humanity.
• 3:20
  Let us be the difference makers, Lord.
• 3:24
  Let us be found in the harvest. Help us not to sit on the
• 3:28
  sidelines. God, I pray she'll help us to
• 3:33
  break up the fallow ground and be fruitful.
• 3:37
  Help us to produce a crop, God, a hundredfold.
• 3:42
  Lord, I pray that we'll not store up treasures for ourselves
• 3:46
  here. But Lord, we'll send them ahead.
• 3:49
  Where moth and rust cannot destroy, where the thief cannot
• 3:53
  break in. God, I pray that you'll help us,
• 3:57
  Lord, to walk in our bridal identity, to fill our lamps,
• 4:01
  God, and trim our Wicks, Lord, and wait expectantly upon you.
• 4:06
  Help us be found, Lord, ready watching.
• 4:11
  And it's in Jesus Christ, holy, precious and powerful name that
• 4:16
  I pray. Amen.
• 4:19
  Well, let's start in verse one. And the Lord called unto Moses
• 4:25
  and spoke unto him out of the Tabernacle of the congregation,
• 4:29
  saying, what's he going to say? Well, let's go to verse 2 to
• 4:32
  find out. Speak unto the children of
• 4:35
  Israel and say unto them, if any man, if you bring an offering
• 4:40
  unto the Lord, you shall bring your offering of the cattle,
• 4:43
  even of the herd and of the flock.
• 4:46
  So here we're going to get to see a little bit of this
• 4:48
  Levitical law. And all of this was already in
• 4:51
  place before Moses ever pinned it down.
• 4:54
  Don't think that it just started right here in this chapter at
• 4:58
  this time. You can.
• 4:59
  You can see it all the way back with Cain and Abel.
• 5:02
  You can see it all the way back when Noah stepped off the boat.
• 5:06
  You see that this sacrifice has always been tied to getting
• 5:11
  closer and being at one with God Almighty.
• 5:16
  And you can see even today He asks us to have a sacrifice
• 5:21
  reigns, and the sacrifice is our Lord Jesus Christ.
• 5:25
  It was all pointing towards Him. And now we rest in the finished
• 5:29
  work of the final sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ.
• 5:34
  But God still today desires our best, our first fruits.
• 5:40
  God still desires the first part of your day.
• 5:43
  He still desires the first of your increase.
• 5:46
  He still desires for you to give Him your best.
• 5:50
  Not your sloppy seconds friends, not your leftovers friends, but
• 5:54
  your very first, the very best of your life.
• 5:58
  There is nothing better in this life than to serve God when you
• 6:01
  were young. Three, if his offering be a
• 6:07
  burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a mail without
• 6:11
  blemish, He shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the
• 6:16
  door of the Tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord.
• 6:19
  So what you need to understand here is this was primarily for
• 6:23
  those of wealth, those who had means.
• 6:26
  They would come and they would bring their cattle, they would
• 6:30
  bring their bull, they would bring their bovine into the door
• 6:38
  of the Tabernacle, and there they the person bringing it was
• 6:43
  to slay it, and then the priest would deal with the rest of it.
• 6:48
  Four. And he shall put his hand upon
• 6:50
  the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him
• 6:54
  to make atonement for him. So what you need to understand
• 6:57
  here in verse 4, this million dollar word at atonement is just
• 7:03
  to be at one with God. And this was a representative.
• 7:08
  This was all a picture of what would happen on the cross.
• 7:15
  And it was for the owner of this bowl to bring it into the door
• 7:22
  of the tent and to lean upon it and to put all his weight upon
• 7:26
  it to signify that he's putting all of his sin upon this animal.
• 7:32
  And the animal would die in his stead.
• 7:34
  And they're acknowledging that they deserve death.
• 7:37
  Friends, none of us deserve heaven.
• 7:40
  Not a single one of us deserve heaven.
• 7:43
  We deserve hell. And aren't you thankful that we
• 7:46
  do not worship a fair God, but we worship a just God?
• 7:53
  And he paid the penalty. He sent His only begotten so
• 7:57
  that you and I can make it there with him.
• 7:59
  We could never make it there on our own.
• 8:01
  If anybody ever tries to keep all of the law, and if they
• 8:06
  break one part of it, they are guilty of the entire law.
• 8:10
  And that is what you need to understand is there is none who
• 8:14
  are righteous. No, there is not one who could
• 8:17
  ever live up to the standard that God set to make it there
• 8:21
  with Him. There was only one in His name
• 8:23
  is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And there's no grave that you
• 8:27
  can go to to go and pay homage to Him.
• 8:30
  He's alive forever more seated at the right hand of God.
• 8:34
  And that's who we attach ourselves to.
• 8:36
  And that's the only way that we will ever make it there with God
• 8:40
  in the end. I pray that you are not just
• 8:43
  dunked in water, but that you've been washed in the blood from
• 8:47
  the top of your head to the soles of your feet, your palms
• 8:50
  in your back, your face, friends, every last bit of you
• 8:55
  completely covered in the blood of Jesus Christ.
• 8:58
  And when you stand before an Almighty God, one day he's going
• 9:02
  to say, well done, good and faithful servant, come into the
• 9:06
  that I have prepared for you. Jesus told us, he says, I go to
• 9:09
  prepare a place for you in my Father's house.
• 9:12
  There are many mansions and he is there now and he is preparing
• 9:16
  that for us now. And one day we will see New
• 9:18
  Jerusalem coming down from heaven and God will be there
• 9:22
  with us forevermore. And there's no need for light
• 9:25
  friends, because God is there and the Christ is there.
• 9:28
  There's no need for a temple there because Jesus Christ is
• 9:32
  tabernacling with us forevermore.
• 9:35
  I pray that you are excited about that.
• 9:38
  I pray that you're not mixed up and turned around on your
• 9:41
  theology. I pray that you don't think that
• 9:43
  we're just trying to get there just to escape hell.
• 9:48
  I pray that you're excited about forever worshipping the Lamb who
• 9:53
  is worthy, worthy, worthy to be praised.
• 9:58
  Five. And he shall kill the bull
• 10:00
  before the Lord. And the priest, Aaron's sons
• 10:03
  shall bring the blood and sprinkle the blood round and
• 10:06
  about the altar that is by the door of the Tabernacle of the
• 10:09
  congregation. So here you can see that the
• 10:12
  owner of the bull was the one to kill it.
• 10:15
  But then you see that Aaron and his sons, the high priest and
• 10:18
  the ministers are the ones who are going to splay it, and
• 10:22
  they're going to take the blood and they're going to put it on
• 10:24
  the altar. And that is what has happened at
• 10:27
  Calvary. Jesus is Christ is the all
• 10:30
  sufficient sacrifice. And all of this that we're going
• 10:33
  to be reading in the Levitical law is all pointing towards that
• 10:37
  day whenever Jesus willingly went to the cross. 6 And he
• 10:43
  shall flay the burnt offering and cut it into pieces. 7 And
• 10:47
  the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar,
• 10:51
  and lay the wood and order upon the fire.
• 10:54
  So this was not some haphazard way.
• 10:56
  This was prescribed and ascribed by God Almighty.
• 11:00
  And there's order, friends, and God doesn't want us just to come
• 11:04
  and offer strange fire and to Him.
• 11:07
  He wants us to do it in the way that He has ascribed to us.
• 11:12
  There is an order to following after the Lord God Almighty.
• 11:17
  There is no private interpretation of Scripture.
• 11:20
  We must come in the way that God told us that we must, and it is
• 11:25
  through our Lord Jesus Christ. There's no other way unto the
• 11:28
  Father. He is the Way, the truth, and
• 11:31
  the Life, and no one comes unto the Father except through our
• 11:35
  Lord Jesus Christ. 8 And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay
• 11:40
  the parts, the head, the fat, in order upon the wood, that is,
• 11:44
  upon the fire, which is upon the altar.
• 11:47
  So you can see that this fat dripped down, and it would cause
• 11:51
  the fire to grow larger, and then it would burn up and
• 11:55
  consume this offering. Nine But the innards in the legs
• 11:59
  shall be washed in water, and the priest shall burn all on the
• 12:03
  altar, to be a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire.
• 12:07
  A sweet savour unto the Lord. So we know that the prayers of
• 12:11
  the Saints are what is the pleasing aroma unto God.
• 12:16
  And you can see here that all of this is pointing towards the
• 12:20
  reality of what is happening in heaven.
• 12:23
  Tin. And if His offering be of the
• 12:27
  flocks, namely of the sheep or of the goats for a burnt
• 12:30
  sacrifice, he shall bring it a mail without blemish.
• 12:34
  So God desires the best. And if you couldn't afford a
• 12:37
  bull, he would take a lamb or a goat.
• 12:40
  And I'll be thankful that Jesus Christ fulfills both.
• 12:44
  Jesus Christ is the Lamb that takes away the sin of the world,
• 12:48
  and He is the scapegoat that was offered outside of the camp. 11
• 12:54
  And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before
• 12:58
  the Lord and the priests. Aaron's Son shall sprinkle the
• 13:01
  blood round and about the altar. So here you can see this
• 13:06
  pointing towards the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, as the blood
• 13:10
  comes down and it cleanses the earth. 12 And he shall cut it
• 13:15
  into his pieces of his head and his fat, and the priest shall
• 13:18
  lay them in order on the wood, that is on the fire which is
• 13:22
  upon the altar. So here, this altar, this was
• 13:25
  the killing place, friends. We have a different idea of what
• 13:29
  an altar is. It's a high place that someone
• 13:33
  speaks from, and we have an altar call to come down, but
• 13:37
  never get it mixed up that this was tied to a sacrifice.
• 13:45
  This was tied to the killing of something, and we must kill all
• 13:51
  of our old, sinful, lustful ways.
• 13:54
  We must take it. We must lay it on the altar and
• 13:57
  remain on the altar, not slide off the altar, friends.
• 14:01
  We lay ourselves willingly upon the altar as a living sacrifice,
• 14:06
  Friends. 13 And he shall wash the innards and the legs with
• 14:10
  water, and the priest shall bring it all and burn it upon
• 14:13
  the altar. It is a burnt sacrifice, an
• 14:16
  offering made by fire of a sweet savour unto the Lord.
• 14:19
  So the entire animal is consumed.
• 14:23
  There is no pieces that they take and eat and commune with
• 14:26
  God. This is sacrificing something
• 14:29
  that was very valuable, and God asked us to do the same today.
• 14:36
  14 And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the Lord be
• 14:40
  a fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtle doves or
• 14:45
  young pigeons. So here you can see these
• 14:48
  delicate birds being acceptable unto God.
• 14:53
  If you could not afford the bull, the goat, or the lamb,
• 14:58
  then he would accept your turtle doves or your pigeon.
• 15:03
  And we see these ascribed notions all the way in the
• 15:10
  temple, that Jesus Christ went and flipped over the tables and
• 15:14
  drove out the money changers, because they had made God's
• 15:18
  house into a den of thieves instead of a place of prayer.
• 15:22
  And here you can see how they took all of these things that
• 15:26
  Moses had told us that God would want, and they took them, and
• 15:31
  they perverted them, and they subjected them, and they made
• 15:34
  them into a merchandise. And it is deplorable and
• 15:38
  disgusting in our life when we use the things of religion for
• 15:42
  selfish and greedy gain. 15 And the priest shall bring it unto
• 15:50
  the altar, and wring off his head, and burn it on the altar,
• 15:54
  and the blood of it shall be wrung out at the side of the
• 15:57
  altar. So they would pluck the head,
• 15:59
  and they would squeeze the bird, and they would cause the blood
• 16:02
  to run down this altar. 16 And they shall pluck away his crop
• 16:09
  with his feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east
• 16:13
  part by the place of the ashes. So this was the furthest part of
• 16:21
  the altar away from the holiest of holy places.
• 16:25
  The holy of holy places would be on the east part.
• 16:28
  We know that Christ comes through the east gate, and you
• 16:32
  can see here that this is on the West side.
• 16:34
  And he takes our sins and casts them as far as the east is from
• 16:38
  the West. And it's a total annihilation of
• 16:44
  this. It's just all the way to the
• 16:47
  ashes. We'll end on 17.
• 16:52
  And he shall cleave it with the wings of it, but shall not
• 16:55
  divide it asunder. But the priest shall burn it
• 16:59
  upon the altar, upon the wood, that is upon the fire.
• 17:02
  It is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire of a sweet
• 17:07
  savour unto the Lord. Can you see the whole scene
• 17:11
  friends, this is Jesus, Jesus. Jesus, this is all about our
• 17:15
  Lord Jesus Christ. Don't get it mixed up, don't get
• 17:18
  it twisted. Don't think that we somehow
• 17:21
  become super Saints by following after all of this.
• 17:25
  God put it all in place so that we would see our need for our
• 17:29
  Lord Jesus Christ, that we could never live up to the standards
• 17:33
  of God Almighty. He is holy and set apart is all
• 17:39
  good, and His ways are beyond comprehension.
• 17:44
  We can only understand what He reveals to us in the written
• 17:48
  word. I hope you've been blessed by
• 17:50
  the written word. I know I sure have.
• 17:53
  I'm praying for every single one of you.
• 17:55
  I love you. We'll see you back here
• 17:57
  tomorrow. God bless you.
