Meditation of the week: Psalms 12:1-8

Main scripture: Exodus 12:1-13

Subject: Are you eating unleavened bread only?

             The LORD God gave a covenant unto Abraham saying, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;

And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.(Gen. 15:13,14)

In the main passage, God called Moses to deliver the people of Israel from Egypt, and spoke unto them before he brought forth the final wrath upon the Egyptian. The LORD God commanded them to keep the day as the LORD’s Passover forever.

                They were commanded to take a lamb for an house at that night; and their lamb should be without blemish, a male of the first year to be taken from the sheep, or from the goats. They had to take of the blood, and strike it on the two side post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. They had to eat the flesh in that night, and eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; and with unleavened bread; and with bitter herb they should eat.

The LORD God show the Passover of the LORD as the model of the greater Passover that God will deliver men from the wicked world as Egypt through the blood of Jesus Christ that died on the cross to take away of the sin of the world. Unleavened bread symbolizes the body of Christ without sin, and bitter herb his suffering for us.

                  Jesus spoke of himself as the bread that gives life eternal:

“I am that bread of life.

Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.”(john 6:48-58)

                   Apostle John, the writer of the book of John testified of the bread of life:

“He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”(John 1:11-13)

Yeah! Whosoever believes in the Lord Jesus Christ, and receive him is to receive the eternal life through eating the flesh of Jesus, and drinking his blood as well without any sin(leaven).

                Jesus continued to encourage his disciples to eat unleavened bread that is the pure words of God. Jesus spoke unto his disciples of a parable of the mystery of the kingdom of heaven that shall be robbed by the Satan and his servants killing the king of the kingdom that is he.

“The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.”(Matt. 13:33)

Jesus prophesied of the leaven that shall be hid to be spread in the church of God so that there shall be multitude of people that are to follow the lust of the flesh; and it shall be looking as the kingdom of heaven in the earth. Jesus prophesied of a woman as Ethbaal that shall be the religious group in Rome that shall worship the Queen of Heaven; and they shall hid leaven in the words of God to build their kingdom through seducing the world.

                 Jesus fed the Jews with seven loaves of bread and two fishes filling in seven baskets with the leftover; and he spoke of the leaven:

“ How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?”(Matt. 16:11)

Upon hearing from Jesus, the disciples understood of the leaven that is not of the bread, but of the leaven, that is false doctrine of Pharisees and Sadducees. The Holy Ghost, the writer of the words of God is still warning of them that teach false doctrine of the words of God to the disciples of God using with the corrupted words of God.

Afterwards, Jesus spoke again of the leaven saying,

“Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.”(Luke 12:1)

                       Apostle Paul wrote to the saints in Rome to give warning again false teachers that teach the false doctrine(Leaven):

“Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.”(Rom. 16:17,18)

                 He also warned to the saints in Corinthian church of leaven:

“Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.”(1Cor. 5:6-8)

Yeah! We have to get rid of old leavens, that are false doctrine that are still occupying within our heart.

               Yeah! Old serpent that is the devil spoke unto Eve hiding leaven in the word of God saying, “Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?”(Gen. 3:1) The serpent hid a leaven, “Ye shall not eat“

Upon hearing his word, Eve answered the serpent adding and changing the word of God saying,

“But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.”(Gen. 3:3)

She added the word “Neither shall ye touch it“; changed the word of God “Surely die” into “Lest to die“.

Then the serpent activated the leaven hid in the word of God to be swollen saying, “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.”(Gen. 3:5)

When Eve heard the word of the serpent, she came to pass to look at the fruit of the forbidden tree to enter the way of falling. When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her and he did eat.

                  The devil that visited the Garden of Eden is still visiting the church of God that is the Garden of Eden in the earth, and hiding secretly in the words of God so that Christians may follow the lust of the flesh(good for eat), and the lust of the eyes(Pleasant to the eyes), and proud of life((desired to make one wise). The servants of the Satan have been corrupting the pure words of God, adding and omitting that are inspired by the Holy Ghost for last two hundreds of years hiding leavens. This has been resulted in falling away to the theology of prosperity and replacement theology departing from pure words of God.

                God foreknew that such kinds of leavens shall prevail his churches, and prophesied of it:

“The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.”(Ps. 12:6-8)

                     Yeah! Until the pure words of God is in our hands, the words of God have been tried many times in the process of translating into other languages. Being written in Hebrews, to Greek, Syrian, Latin, German, English and all other languages, the words of God have been attacked continuously by Satan. In the age of darkness when the Roman church ruled the world, so many Christians were burn to death just because they had the King James Bible at their home. As prophesied in Psalms chapter 12, modern Scribes that have participated in adding leavens in the words of God to boost the lust of the flesh. As the prophesy, the wicked walks on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.

                God has given unto us the pure words of God by grace without any of the leaven. Therefore, we should not receive any words of anyone, or any doctrine that are different from the words of God. Regardless who they are, we have to examine the words of men whether their words are in the words of God. When Apostle Paul preached the words of God unto the people in Brea, they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. When we search the scriptures daily, the words of God shall be filled in our heart so that we may be able to discern the spirits not to be deceived when we hear the words of men that the leavens are hid. All the words of God are spirit and life(John 6:63). Therefore, we have to examine the words of men not to receive the leaven that are sown. And we have to cast out boldly any old leavens that are still left in our heart that we heard in the past, so that our heart may be the holy place where only pure words of God remain. Amen! Hallelujah!
