TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS
July 12, 2024 – 07/12/2024
7 – The Spirit of God
12 – Perfect Government
Matthew 7:12 (NKJV) Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, also do to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
GOD IS OUT OF THE BOX
When God wants to show us He is ruling and that there is a perfect plan, He likes to use the number 12 in His language.
The Temple of Solomon was built with an outer court, an inner court, and a most holy place. The presence of the Lord is inside the most holy place.
If you weren’t Jewish, you could only go into the court of the Gentiles; that’s as far as most Texans would be able to go. Then, you had to be a Jew to get into the inner court. In order to get behind the veil and to get into the actual manifest presence of the Lord, you could be one person, the high priest.
That was the system that Solomon set up, but not so with David. At the very beginning of David’s story as King, as soon as he began his kingdom, he brought the Lord’s presence in the form of the Ark of the Covenant. It was an incredible box. The Lord himself would become manifest in this God-in-a-box thing. This was a representation, a picture of a type, to teach us that someday we would be the Temple of God. I’m looking at the temple of God as I look at believers around me.
David’s heart was so fixed on God that he knew God wanted to be with all the people, so, he brought in the Ark, and he didn’t hide it. Everybody had access to the presence of King Jesus. It didn’t matter if you were male or female, a Jew or a Gentile or what race you were, or what position you held in society. All you had to do was be willing to worship the Lord.
He is the creator of everything, and He wants us to be still and know Him. Connecting with the One who knows everything about everything because He created it is a powerful way to know how our lives work best.
In the morning, before you look at your long list of things that you have to do, before you even get to that, think of ten things that you can do that are out of the box, things that you can do for King Jesus, serving the Lord in your business, in your relationships, in your ministry, in any of those things, and just do this. Acknowledge He is with you, and He will be with you all day. Come expecting a good day.
Declaration: I will let You govern my day, Lord. I will come into Your presence so You can give me creative ways to walk with You and serve in Your Kingdom.
