The Blood Sacrifice in the Age of Slavery (Exodus 3) and My 24 Hours

Exodus 3:18 / "The elders of Israel will listen to you. Then you and the elders are to go to the king of Egypt and say to him, 'The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Let us take a three-day journey into the desert to offer sacrifices to the LORD our God."

Hymn #259 Have You Been to Jesus (Unified Hymn 193)

Because the fundamental problem of man began from Genesis 3; 6; and 11, it can't be resolved by anything else except through the blood sacrifice of "Christ." Those who didn't know this tried to find ways through idols; superstitions; and divination. As a result, they became completely enslaved to Satan through "The 6 States of the Unbeliever." However, when Christ is enjoyed, forces of darkness tremble. Furthermore, when Christ is firmly held onto, darkness collapses. This was the covenant that Moses held onto. (Exodus 3:18)

1. Liberation from Satan's Enslavement
In Genesis 3, the Original Sin of leaving God occurred in the Garden of Eden. Although man tried diligently to live without God, he completely became the Nephilim. Although, man worked hard to succeed, one day, he just collapsed like the Tower of Babel. What liberates people here is the covenant of Christ, the covenant of blood. Only God's covenant, that is Christ, the blood covenant, can bring true liberation.

2. Liberation from Slavery in Egypt
Because the Israelites were steadily growing in number and prospering, Pharaoh enslaved them and even killed their children. Furthermore, Pharaoh ordered the Israelites to build great idol shrines. Like this, if you don't hold onto God's covenant at all, you'll run errands for the world, and your posterity will perish.

3. Liberation from the State of the Wilderness
Only through the blood sacrifice can you be victorious in this wilderness-like journey of life. What God gave during the 40 years in the wilderness are shown in the five books written by Moses. (The Pentateuch) The book of Exodus contains the Ark of the Covenant; Tabernacle; and the Feasts. The book of Leviticus states that everything can be overcome through the blood sacrifice. (Worship) In the book of Numbers, it's stated that God will wholly establish His people. Finally, the book of Deuteronomy instructs the Israelites to completely change what was imprinted in Egypt and what was rooted and had become their nature in the wilderness.

You must prepare from the beginning so that you don't end up in the state of both slavery and the wilderness. In addition, so that the posterity doesn't become enslaved, you must prepare for missions. Through God's power, you must develop your spiritual strength in advance so that you can conquer the culture of darkness. There's no need to try and heal spiritual problems because by preparing in advance, they'll disappear on their own.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, may today be a day of preparation and a day when I gain tremendous spiritual power. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
