Day 6
Spiritual Campaign: CONSECRATED
Leviticus 11:44 (ESV)
44 For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any swarming thing that crawls on the ground
Day 6
Theme: Consecrated by the Anointing of the Spirit.
Biblical reading:
Exodus 29:1-8 English Standard Version (ESV)
Consecration of the Priests
29 “Now this is what you shall do to them to consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. Take one bull of the herd and two rams without blemish, 2 and unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers smeared with oil. You shall make them of fine wheat flour. 3 You shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket, and bring the bull and the two rams. 4 You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and wash them with water. 5 Then you shall take the garments, and put on Aaron the coat and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastpiece, and gird him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod. 6 And you shall set the turban on his head and put the holy crown on the turban. 7 You shall take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him. 8 Then you shall bring his sons and put coats on them,
Leviticus 21:12 English Standard Version (ESV)
12 He shall not go out of the sanctuary, lest he profane the sanctuary of his God, for the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is on him: I am the Lord.
Thought: As priests of the kingdom of God we were consecrated by the anointing oil of the Holy Spirit for God. Let’s live under the anointing!
In a fallen and very depraved world, the eternal God, who is three times Holy, demands our daily sanctification. And this purification of soul, mind and heart, in turn requires the consecration of our lives on a genuine altar of true worship.
The biblical terms: sanctify, separate and consecrate … are synonymous terms. Consecration is, therefore, separation. Separation from the world, from sin and the power of darkness! Separation in God, by God … and for God.
In the Old Testament the priests and even the chosen people of God had to consecrate themselves in order to participate in the sacred feasts, when they came to present themselves in the presence of the Most High. And in line with this principle, we invite you to prepare your spirit to celebrate the Major Week of our faith, with an attitude of consecration to God.
For 21 days, you and I will have the opportunity to separate for God by participating in this revival crusade of spiritual consecration.
Pray daily, read the biblical texts and fast under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Let’s approach God with a willing heart … to take the cross of self-denial, which is willing to die, so that Christ may live!
Special instructions:
During the next 21 days we recommend spending a minimum of one hour a day in the presence of God, praising, praying and meditating on the Word. And during your times of prayer you should always ask the Lord to reveal to you the areas of your life that still need to be consecrated to the service of God.
In addition, you will fast a minimum of one meal a day (we recommend Wesley’s fast from 12:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. daily). Remember that fasting is NOT EATING. Fast seeking the direction of God under the anointing of his Spirit. Fast as the Lord tells you to fast. Do not fast with an attitude of religiosity, to be heard by God.
Set aside a special time to read the biblical meditations and as you read them, reflect on the renewing message of the Word, paying attention to the voice of the Holy Spirit. God wants to speak to your heart!
David said to the Lord: “Wash me more and more of my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.” “Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; Wash me, and I will be much whiter than white snow. “(Psalm 51: 2,7) Church, the Lord wants to cleanse us from all our wickedness and from all contamination of” flesh and spirit. ”
God will help us to consecrate all that needs to be consecrated; he wants to fill a Consecrated House. Therefore, get to work!
Let’s start this journey of spiritual consecration!
