As we were entering into our Shavuot celebration (Pentecost for Christian lingo with Pente = 50, also known as Feast of Weeks in the KJV) that God commands to be celebrated on the 6th of Sivan, the LORD highlighted “Give your Shavuot freewill offering TONIGHT!” Obedience is better than a sacrifice!
Deut 16:10-12 – 10 And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the Lord thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand, which thou shalt give unto the Lord thy God, according as the Lord thy God hath blessed thee: 11 And thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are among you, in the place which the Lord thy God hath chosen to place his name there. 12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.
LEVITICUS 23:9 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 10 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into the land which I give to you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest. 11 He shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted on your behalf; on the day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. . .. 15 And you shall count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering: seven Sabbaths shall be completed. 16 Count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath; then you shall offer a new grain offering to the LORD.’ (**6th day of Sivan) ” (NKJV)
As you can see by those scriptures, this would also be considered the First fruits Offering I have released a teaching on in the past, which unlocks a blessing on the rest of your income. If the lump is holy, then the entire batch is holy.
Romans 11:16 – For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
Ezekiel 44:30 – The best of all the firstfruits and of every contribution from all your offerings will belong to the priests. You are to give your first batch of dough to the priest, so that a blessing may rest upon your homes.
He then gave us a lump sum that had my husband’s jaw struggling to come back up. What I DIDN’T know is that he had just paid tithes this morning along with some once in a blue moon housekeeping expenses. I had also paid a large expense myself this morning so the amount was much harder to swallow!
We were personally given a list of 6 people with varying amounts, so ask the Holy Spirit WHO and WHERE and HOW/amount. He then highlighted the fact that for our names, NONE of these were in a church building. None of them belonged to rebellious Vashti’s government that refused to display her beauty (of Holiness) but were all a part of Esther’s government who had submitted to the purifying process. Bringing the offering to the temple does NOT mean bringing it to the building. WE are to be the temple of the Holy Spirit. As you may have noticed, our tithe did NOT count as part of the freewill offering. It was above and beyond.
He also highlighted that we are now transitioning to Hezekiah’s Stage 4, which I released about 3 years ago, then confirmed it through my son as he came running to share his journaling with me that he was reading about King Hezekiah tonight and had a vision of God handing him a brick with the word COVENANT written upon it. (Jeremiah = Jehovah Will Exalt)
As a very nano-refresher of that word:
Stage 1: People Repent.
Stage 2: Levites Repent.
Stage 3: Priests Repent. (This is what happened during the lockdown)
Stage 4: People bring freewill offerings to the CONSECRATED PRIESTS.
Stage 5: The freewill offerings are so abundant that a Priestly Storehouse was required to be built to handle the abundance.
NOTE! Those who had NOT consecrated themselves to be on temple duty during the influx did NOT receive their portion due only to the priests on duty and their families.
Obedience to this offering will cause a blessing to rest upon your household as per Ezekiel 44:30. This is crucial for protection from the coming judgments that are about to land upon the rebellious. We are shifting from Ezekiel 3 (of warning the rebellious house of Israel) to Isaiah 65 (Judgment time for those who refused to listen).
Ezekiel 3:4-9 – 4 And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them. 5 For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel; 6 Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened unto thee. 7 But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are impudent and hardhearted. 8 Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads. 9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
Isaiah 65:1-8 – I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name. 2 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts; 3 A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick; 4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels; 5 Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. 6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom, 7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom. 8 Thus saith the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
As per Tracey Cooke, the time of RECOMPENSE will begin in the last 4 months of THIS year of 2020. Notice this context, recompense is NEGATIVE for those who are walking in iniquity, not positive like a lot of Baal’s prophets are declaring to the unrepentant masses and leading themselves astray. Yes, there WILL be positive for the recompense for the righteous.
2 Sam 22: 20 – 25 – 20He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.21 The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me. 22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God. 23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them. 24 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity. 25 Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
Another bunny trail on the LORD delighting in us that I got earlier today.
Isaiah 58:13-14 NLT – 13 “Keep the Sabbath day holy. Don’t pursue your own interests on that day, but enjoy the Sabbath and speak of it with delight as the Lord’s holy day. Honor the Sabbath in everything you do on that day, and don’t follow your own desires or talk idly. 14 Then the Lord will be your delight. I will give you great honor and satisfy you with the inheritance I promised to your ancestor Jacob. I, the Lord, have spoken!”
Ps 37:4 KJV – 4 Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
