  • Wake Us Up Lord!

    Can you imagine what it must be like to be God? The most interesting, fascinating Being who created everything we see and everything we can’t see; who created us in His image and likeness and surrounded us with the beauty of His creation…and His people turn their back on Him and bow down to images…

  • The Land Is Mine

    Do we ever consider the blessing of the provision of the Lord for us and for His creation? The land must not be sold permanently, because the land is mine and you reside in my land as foreigners and strangers. Throughout the land that you hold as a possession, you must provide for the redemption…

  • Seek To Understand

    It’s curious to me reading the first part of Leviticus 24 where Moses is receiving instruction about the clear oil of pressed olives for the light of the lamps being kept burning continually outside the curtain that shields the ark in the tent of meeting; the bread a most holy part of the priests perpetual…

  • Rejoice!

    Can you imagine? God wants to spend time with us. More than any friend you will ever know, any family you delight in…God wants to spend time with you. He gave the people Festivals to delight in with Him in Leviticus 23. Days of rest and assembly where hard work could be stopped so they…

  • Priestly Distinction

    Leviticus 21 and 22 give instruction for Aaron’s sons and descendants, the priesthood. Over and over at the end of each instruction these words…I am holy…Because they present the food offerings to the Lord, the food of their God, they are to be holy…I am the Lord…I am the Lord who makes him holy…tell Aaron…

  • The Lord Makes You Holy

    There are times when reading Scripture that God sounds so harsh. So we shrink away. We fear punishment. Then we think that the God of the Old Testament is somehow different from the God of the New Testament. Is He really? The people are about to enter into a land where parents kill their own…

  • How Can We Be Holy?

    My husband and I love to watch all things Star Trek. There is the concept of timelines and reading my Bible, I definitely get a sense of a different timeline. It was such a different world then. The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them: ‘Be holy…

  • A Holy Guide

    Can we imagine being a people in such a unique position that the Creator God is teaching us how to live by His instructions? He was a Holy Guide to them. He loved them. Leviticus 18 is God caring for their emotional, interpersonal relations. There is nothing more personal than sex. There is nothing more…

  • Choosing Hope

    Whenever I read a Chapter in the Bible, I try to understand how God is leading me to be closer to Him. In Leviticus 17 is the teaching about blood and sacrifice. The curious passages for me were They must no longer offer any of their sacrifices to the goat idols to whom they prostitute…

  • Remember The Love

    Leviticus 16 gives instruction in how Aaron and any High Priest succeeding him is to serve God. The Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron who died when they approached the Lord. The Lord said to Moses: “Tell your brother Aaron that he is not to come whenever he…
