“Karounwi Damilola:
*RECALIBRATION *
Genesis 49:10 “The sceptre shall not depart from Judah nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
In today’s snippet we are going to look at a prophetic declaration codified about Christ from the book of the beginning, our Labour from all of the pieces downloaded is to reveal the personality of an entity called Christ because all of the testaments referenced him When you know Christ accurately you’re known. It is the revelation of Christ you capture that determines your progression in the path of spiritual escapades and this is the epoch for the Christ to be made bare and naked so that we could be salvaged from the impending carnage sponsored by religiosity.
So from our anchor scripture we saw for the first time the word “Shiloh” and according to the LAW OF FIRST MENTION, every other interpretative measures employed in unlocking this word Shiloh in all other related scriptures must be traceable to its original use in our anchor passage. So we are going unveil some pivotal words as used in that passage in order that we might be abreast with what that passage offers and on this premise we begin our journey for today.
The word “Sceptre” used in that passage of scripture is from the root word “shebet” which means rod, staff and what have you and according to context this is referring to the rod of Aaron. Aaron’s rod represents the tribe of Levi who were in the custody of services of the tabernacle( Numbers 17:8) so the word sceptre as captured in our anchor verse is referencing the Aaronic priesthood according to the Levitical order likewise we saw another important word captured as “lawgiver”, actually if we do not unravel the meaning of words captured in our anchor verse then we can’t accurately decipher who the scripture is referencing and the codes locked up there in. So the word lawgiver is actually glaring to all because it was a man who gave the LAW as received on mount Sinai in the person of Moses so invariably if we are going to re- write that verse of scripture now that we understand what it means we could say “The Aaronic priesthood shall not depart from Judah nor the LAW from between his feet UNTIL SHILOH COME…… Did you see that? Hmmm we are going somewhere. Just follow me carefully. Glory to Jesus
The giving of the LAW on mount Sinai was not the original template of God for Israel but the original intention of the immortals is to raise a Kingdom of priests such that everyone becomes a priest not restricted to only a tribe but the boastful nature of the Israelites provoked the LAW and of course they needed a regulation so that they won’t be living carelessly however instead of becoming a nation of priests they resorted to becoming a tribe of priests and by that I’m referring to the tribe of Levi so every other tribes are at the mercy of this tribe( Levi) in terms of sanctuary worship but from the beginning it was not so (Read Exodus 19:4-8). It was the giving of the LAW on mount Sinai that birthed the Aaronic priesthood and the Levitical order so because this was not the original template of God, the LAW was just a type and shadow to bring us to the tangible, the LAW is the figure of things to come not the reality in itself. The law was our school master to bring us to Christ and in Christ we all became priests not a particular tribe, we were made Kings and Priests unto our God. We became a royal priesthood 1Pet 2:9.
Our anchor verse is revealing something pertinent to us that the Aaronic order of priesthood and the LAW were given UNTIL SHILOH COME. What then is Shiloh? Shiloh is not just a weekly, monthly and yearly programme where people gather to receive miracles though not bad but Shiloh is actually a person, that word Shiloh from the strong’s definition is an epithet of the messiah which is CHRIST, so when you see Shiloh you’re referencing the person of Christ that’s why the later part of that verse said “And unto HIM shall the gathering of the people be. Did you noticed the bible used the word HIM for SHILOH?
The HIM is CHRIST JESUS so invariably God’s word is revealing to us that the services of the Aaronic priesthood and the law is no longer needed now that the tangible has come because they were supposed to function UNTIL SHILOH come and now SHILOH has come. Wow I feel like shouting… Glory!
Christ came to fulfil the law so that the law in Christ can be fulfilled in you… What a merciful high priest we have in Christ, he saw our helplessness and frailty, he saw that no one has the capacity to fulfil the law of Moses therefore he condescended so low to identify with humanity in order to consummate this reality and now we cooperate with Him in his finished work.
However we were delivered from a law(Moses) into another law called the LAW of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus( Rom 8:2) so No Christian is lawless only that the modus operandi mutated from the old(Moses) into the New(Christ).
Let me show you two more scriptures to validate my points and I wrap up for today. Galatians 3:24 Wherefore the LAW was our school master to bring us unto Christ that we might be justified by faith. Are you in Christ? Then you’re free in Him, no longer entangled to a yoke of bondage( Gal 5;1). It’s a pity we still have ministers offering people ritualistic killings and all manner of assumed accurate rituals like that of Aaron for a change of story and breakthrough, ministers for Christ sake, that venture ended with Moses now we are in Christ, sign out of Moses and sign into Christ. Whatever Christ can not afford is needless , Don’t be bamboozled and tossed to and fro by gimmicks and every wind of doctrines. The last scripture and I close “In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first( law)old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away( Heb 8:13). The reign of the intangible (law) has given way for the reign of the tangible (Christ). Hallelujah!
Are you blessed?
Stay blessed and remain connected.
Shalom
