Before we kneel down, the Lord knelt down first. (Isaiah 45)

-



Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. By myself I have sworn, my mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked: Before me every knee will bow; by me every tongue will swear. (Isa45:22-23)


In the future, all the nations will return to the Lord and kneel before God, and they will say "Jesus Christ is our Lord!" But before that happened, the Lord knelt down first.


He completely knelt down to bear all my sins and offer an eternal atonement service in front of God's righteous trial. (Philipians 2:5-8)


And He also knelt down before us who had continued to walk our ways stuburnly, as He called out "Return to me, My sons." with His arms stretching out all day long. (Romans5:8)


Jesus Christ was able to be the only mediator between God and man, because He knelt down in front of God and sinners with humble attitude.


who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all men--the testimony given in its proper time. (1Ti2:4~6)


I worship the Lord for His giving life to me as a sacrifices for my sins completely. Hallelujah!

        


PRAYER


Dear Lord, I'm grateful for Your grace that You became lower than me and were crucified for me even though You were the Son of God. Your humility saved me from death. You endured the pain of cross not to be ashamed of being crucified on the cross. If I know the value of Your surrender by kneeling down, I believe that I should kneel down to pray all my life. Please let me live as a man of prayer kneeling down on the cross. I prayed in Jesus' name. Amen!


Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. (Heb12:2)

Open our eyes and ears! (Isaiah 42)

The most important thing in our spiritual growth is not just to read bible much or have much prayer time. Even though we make every effort to obey spiritual rules, if we close our eyes and ears to God, we cannot see the Glory of God. Without opening eyes and ears, all the effort and work we do couldn't change our heart and lives at all. "Hear, you deaf; look, you blind, and see! ... You have seen many things, but have paid no attention; your ears are open, but you hear nothing." (Isa42:18,20) Who is blind but my servant, and deaf like the messenger I send? Who is blind like the one committed to me, blind like the servant of the LORD? (Isa42:19) ​Those who looked passionate for God's work - Lord's servants and God's messangers, were the blind and the deaf. The reason is their closed eyes and ears to God. Now people see what they want to see and listen to what they want to hear. In such a world, God eagarly serches for those who expect to see God's glory and...

Today's passage discusses the regulations regarding the lampstand and the bread of the presence in the sanctuary of God. Upon entering the sanctuary and facing the left wall, there are seven lampstands, while facing the right wall reveals the twelve loaves of bread on the table of the presence. God commanded the Israelites to bring pure, pressed olive oil to keep the lamps burning continuously, and Aaron was to tend to the lamps from evening until morning outside the curtain of the testimony in the tabernacle of meeting. This was to be an everlasting statute for generations to come (Leviticus 24:2-3). The oil used to light the seven lampstands was pure, pressed olive oil, and the lamps had to be cleaned and refilled with fresh oil every day from evening until morning. "Take fine flour and bake twelve loaves of bread, using two-tenths of an ephah for each loaf. Arrange them in two stacks, six in each stack, on the table of pure gold before the Lord. By each stack, put some pure...

Leviticus 23 outlines the regulations regarding the "Seven Feasts of Israel." Unlike national holidays, which are usually based on a significant event in a country's history, the feasts of Israel were established by God to commemorate future redemptive events that would take place in human history. God instructed that there should be a set time for each feast, and these feasts were known as "God's appointed times" or "divine appointments." The feasts were designed to provide an opportunity for the Israelites to prepare themselves spiritually and to remind them of their dependence on God. The seven feasts of Israel, with their symbolic meanings, are as follows: Spring Feasts: 1) Passover - Jesus' crucifixion and suffering 2) Unleavened Bread - Jesus' burial in the tomb 3) Firstfruits - Jesus' resurrection 4) Pentecost - the coming of the Holy Spirit Fall Feasts: 5) Trumpets - the second coming of Jesus 6) Atonement - the Great Tribulatio...
