Our moon has eight cycles: new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, third quarter, and waning crescent. These phrases repeat every 29.5 days.
The moon’s cycles affect weather patterns on Earth. The moon helps stabilize Earth from excessive wobbles so that the planet can experience stable seasons and climate.
Another cycle in the created order is the seed, ,time, and harvest cycle, which could last weeks, months, or years. For example, during the six-day creation, God called for a result (seed), then there was work (time), after which there was the reality (harvest). Each creation lasted one thousand years.
God rested on the Seventh Day
The Seventh Day of creation was/is a day God set aside as a day of celebration! He blessed this day and invited man to enjoy the works of his hands.
God is the architect of the system. He created the system, the divine order, the created order.
God created the system for himself.
Man refashioned creation for his purposes, being motivated by the devil. Greed is the motivational force.
Generational
God’s system is SEED TIME HARVEST! God plants a harvest, and he shares it with man.
God was so intent on sharing the harvest and teaching us about it that he encoded the Sabbath rest into the Ten Commandments, and Jesus fulfilled it during his ministry on earth by feeding the multitudes and healing all sicknesses and diseases.
LORD of the Harvest
God planted a new harvest. Jesus’s death, burial, and resurrection are the beginning of a new creation.
2 Corinthians 8:9, “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.”
There is a tremendous harvest waiting to be reaped!
EPHESIANS 1:11 says we have obtained an inheritance. What is the inheritance? It is not something new. It is the bounty of the blessing of the original harvest God planned to share with man on the Seventh Day of creation.
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” Colossians 1:12-13
The problem
We never knew what the inheritance was about. We have been blinded by Satan and the traditions of men.
When you look back at how God brought Israel out of Egpyt, he defeated their enemies both spiritual and natural.
According to Psalm 105:37,
“He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.”
The Son of Man is the Lord of the Sabbath.
In Mark 2:27-28, Jesus said,
“And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.”
Jesus healed on the Sabbath. He ate shewbread which was only lawful for the priest to eat on the Sabbath day.
Jesus mastered the original purpose of the Sabbath. However, people could not connect the miracles and blessings of God’s sabbath rest.
For example, the man with the withered man was healed on the sabbath and the Pharisees were angry because Jesus did work on the sabbath. See Luke 6:6-11
Luke 13:10-16, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity for 18 years and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift herself. Jesus healed her on the Sabbath. The ruler of the synagogue was offended. Religion will rob you of your inheritance.
It was always God’s will for man to enjoy the works of his hands.
Why people can not see
“Thus saith the LORD; Curse be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.” Jeremiah 17:5-6
The Blessing
“BLESSED is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8
What is the BLESSING? God commanded the earth to yield her increase, to multiply.
He BLESSED Adam and Eve, everything within their environment worked to benefit them. The river of life flowed from God to them and into the earth, enriching everything it touched.
God took the river of life, Jesus called it the river of living waters in John 7:37-38. He called it the gift of God, a well of living water in John 4:14
The sad thing that I see today is that people can be healed but needlessly die. People’s needs can be met. But the system of man blinds them to the reality of God’s created order.
In Psalms 146:3, dont put your trust in man
Psalms 146:3, dont put your trust in princes or in the political system
Psalms 147:10, dont put your confidences in the legs of a horse or in the legs of a man. In other words, don’t become dependent on the system of man for your help.
“The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.” Psalms 147:11
Isaiah 55:1-3
“Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye tovthe waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.”
(This is the sabbath blessing)
“Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.”
( The difference between God system and man’s system is, God’s system is the original design. It is perfect. It fully satisfies. It is free because it was initially given as a gift. It was restored as a gift, for God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. The gift was restored free of charge to you but it cost Jesus his life.)
“Incline your ear and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.”
Covenant
People dont understand covenant. God is the one who started the concept of covenants, what we call contracts and binding agreements. God offers a contract, a covenant. He says, ‘if you believe on my son, Jesus Christ, I will give the gift of eternal life.’
The terms of the contract, “if you believe, I will give…’
The signs of covenant:
“And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unti them, saying, This is my body which is given FOR YOU: this do in remembrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, THIS CUP IS THE NEW TESTAMENT IN MY BLOOD, which is SHED FOR YOU.” Luke 22:19-20
The bread and the cup, which represent Jesus’ body and blood.
God put these elements in your hands. Different ones in the Old Testament, the first covenant knew how to handle the sacrifice. When they got the sacrifice between sin and judgment, they came out victorious.
One way to work the sacrifice is to go before God in prayer daily saying, “Father, I thank you that by the stripes of Jesus I have been healed.”
People might be saying, ‘I wish it was that easy to be healed.’ I would say, ‘yes it is that easy to be healed.’ God already did the work. He planted the seed and we are in the harvest. I have made a deliberated decision to believe with all my heart because:
“Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.” Jeremiah 9:23-24
God tells you a few things about himself. He said, don’t boast in your wisdom, power, or wealth. He said, ‘I take delight in those who understand and know me.’
Those who have walked with God know he can not lie. They know God is good. They understand his ways of doing things. They know God is no respecter person.
The question is,
Do you understand God?
Do you know God?
Grace & peace
