PRAISING GOD WITH HIS WORDS IS THE WAY HE COMMANDS
Read in this article---
THIS IS A GREAT WORK DONE BY
JESUS CHRIST TO BRING IN THE EVERLASTING THINGS OF HIS—HIS COVENANT AND
INHERITANCE TO ISRAEL of Ro 9: 4,6 in HIS SANCTUARY AND ALL BLESSINGS TO HIS PEOPLE
---one should note---we gentiles were grafted because of the fall of ISRAEL! Their FALL too was
thus a BLESSING!
WHAT BLESSINGS COULD WE EXPECT WHEN THEY ARE RESTORED??????????????
In the end time praises of God had not functioned as it
ought to, with the way David had done---
La 5:14 The elders have ceased gathering at the gate,
And the young men from their music.
2Ch 29:25 And he stationed the Levites in the house of
the LORD with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, according to
the commandment of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for
thus was the commandment of the LORD by His prophets.
Therefore all prophets should understand that
they have to follow LORD’s command to use THE UNDERSTANDING OF “using instruments”---the
following vss. show that such was used TO PRAISE GOD AND TO GIVE
THANKSGIVING---used AT TIMES OF PURIFICATION OF SANCTUARY—
At times when captivity is restored,
we should even use the very words of David, Asaph, as king Hezekiah did--2Ch
29:30 Moreover King Hezekiah and the
leaders commanded the Levites to sing praise to the LORD with the
words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with
gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshiped.
If you pray before the LORD using
the words of Ps. 73-83 (the very words of Asaph, you would understand that they
are prophecy for today –those words describe what had happened in SANCTUARY of
GOD! and those words do pray to request God’s light to shine on those in
SANCTUARY!
Ps 150:5 Praise Him with loud cymbals; Praise Him with
clashing cymbals!

One could understand by reading
the following scriptures that under David’s throne it had been commanded by
David to those under him ---to give thanks and praise---and above La 5: 14
shows IT HAD CEASED IN THE END TIME!---those in God’s temple does a futile work
serving the world, without serving themselves to learn God’s instructions to
RETURN TO GOD TO HIS SANCTUARY, WHICH HE PROFANED IN Ez 24: 21!
This is a
reason for LORD to revive David’s throne, Acts 15: 16!
1Ch 16:5 Asaph the chief,-- but Asaph made music with
cymbals;
(Hab 3: 19 mentions “to the chief
singer on my stringed instruments” –they are prophecies sung on
stringed instruments!---prophecies of psalms concern JESUS CHRIST, Lu
24:44, they have an end, vs. 37)
(notice
Ps. 73-83 in bible—they are written by Asaph).
From
following vss. one should realise that David had directed music with
instruments to PRAISE AND THANK GOD FOR ALL HIS BLESSINGS FOR ISRAEL!
1Ch 16:7 On that day David first delivered this psalm
into the hand of Asaph and his brethren, to thank the LORD:
1Ch 16:37 So he left Asaph and his brothers there
before the ark of the covenant of the LORD to minister before the ark
regularly, as every day’s work required;
2Ch 35:15 And the singers, the sons of Asaph, were in
their places, according to the command of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the
king’s seer.
1Ch 25:1 Moreover David and the captains of the army
separated for the service some of the sons of Asaph, of Heman, and of Jeduthun,
who should prophesy with harps, stringed instruments, and cymbals.
Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, altogether
had 24 sons--! Chr 25: 2-4---THEY ARE THE 24 ELDERS whose sons and brethren
were 288 ---vs. 7- So the number of them, with their brethren who were
instructed in the songs of the LORD, all who were skillful, was two hundred and
eighty–eight.
8 ¶ And they cast lots for their duty, the small
as well as the great, the teacher with the student.
Ezr 3:10 When the builders laid the foundation of the
temple of the LORD, the priests stood in their apparel with trumpets, and the
Levites, the sons of Asaph, with cymbals, to praise the LORD, according to the
ordinance of David king of Israel.
Ne 12:45 Both the
singers and the gatekeepers kept the charge of their God and the charge of the
purification, according to the command of David and Solomon his son.
Ne 12:24--to praise and give
thanks, group alternating with group, according to the command of David the man
of God.
Ne 12:27 Now at the dedication of the wall of
Jerusalem they sought out the Levites in all their places, to bring them to
Jerusalem to celebrate the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings
and singing, with cymbals and stringed instruments and harps.
Ps 150:5 Praise Him with loud cymbals; Praise Him with
clashing cymbals!
Instruments of music-commanded by David-- 1Ch 13:8, 1Ch
15:16,
1Ch 15:28 Thus all
Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting and with
the sound of the horn, with trumpets and with cymbals, making music with
stringed instruments and harps.
2Ch 7:6 And the
priests attended to their services; the Levites also with instruments of the
music of the LORD, which King David had made to praise the LORD, saying,
"For His mercy endures forever," whenever David offered praise by
their ministry. The priests sounded trumpets opposite them, while all Israel
stood.
La 5:14 The elders have ceased gathering at the gate,
And the young men from their music.---should we not realise that the
church leaders had done a futile work!
The leader of church, JESUS CHRIST works with the words he
had given David,
The sweet psalmist was given LORD’s
words,
2 Sam 23: 1-- the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,--2 The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his
word was in my tongue.-3 The God of
Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be
just, ruling in the fear of God.
2Ch 29:30 Moreover
King Hezekiah and the leaders commanded the Levites to sing praise to the
LORD with the words of David and of Asaph the seer.
(2 Chr 29 speaks of a time the LORD
restored captivity of ISRAEL through king Hezekiah, and he was led to use WORDS
OF DAVID and of ASAPH!
We should notice that we had never learned of Asaph in God’s
church, but Ps. 73-83 records that Asaph, a great musician under David had
written them prophesying events happening in LORD’s SANCTUARY! When you read
them you understand how he longs to see that THE LORD CORRECTS THE THINGS IN
HIS SANCTUARY! Asaph, just like David, is concerned of LORD’s temple! That
should make us understand HOW THOSE IN LORD’S TABERNACLE SHOULD BE SERVING AS
DAVID!
Col 3: 16-- Let the word of Christ
dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in
psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the
Lord.
LORD gives His words to His prophets so that they teach and
admonish His people with WORDS OF THE LORD!
In the end time, LORD put His words in the mouth of the
prophet, Jer 1:9
But the prophet, Ez 2: 5, 33: 33, used his “own words” which were like a
“lion” {or Pharaoh, Ez 32;1-2}, to desolate land of ISRAEL, Jer 2: 30—(one should remember how the prophet and his son claimed that
they use (human spirit combined with Holy Spirit! ---we cannot mix LORD’s life giving
words, His spirit, Jn 6: 63 with our own words! HUMAN WORDS DO NOT GIVE LIFE!
IT IS THE WORDS OF RO 6: 3-7, COL 2:
11-15 of JESUS CHRIST, through His sacrifice on the cross that won over human leaders (vs. 15)
Therefore the LORD sent His words of fire to burn those in
God’s land of ISRAEL, considering them as WOOD, Jer 5; 14.

At a time the LORD is restoring
captivity of ISRAEL, it is the LORD’s words that would be effective---HUNDREDS OF VOLUMES OF
LITERATURE AND PREDICTIONS ON WORLD AFFAIRS WOULD NOT SERVE ANY PURPOSE TO
BUILD THE SANCTUARY!
What the church of God of end time, Ez 16: 60-63 has to do
is to take words of JESUS CHRIST, to RETURN to Him, Hos 14: 1,2---it is the
words of being ashamed of what they had done by breaking the covenant
through their rebellion, Ez 44: 7, Eze 32:23-27---(it is Judah which is as
those nations mentioned in those vss. Ez 25: 8)
IT IS THE WORDS THAT GIVES FORGIVENESS OF SINS , RO 6: 3-7
WHICH THE CHURCH LEADERS AS Levites HAVE TO TAKE TO RETURN TO HIM!
Let us understand the prophecies of
Ps. 83—which is sung with music—as the words given by the LORD—concerning our LORD JESUS CHRIST !
Ps. 83--
1 -A
Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy
peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine
enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken
crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come,
and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no
more in remembrance.
5 For they have
consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
Eze. 13: 9 says that ISRAEL name is
taken off the register!
So their work had forgotten God’s
commands! Forsaken God and His laws--- Jer 9:13--
Jer 16:11
Ps. 83: 6 The
tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon,
and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is
joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
Eze. 25: 8-- ‘Look! The house of Judah is like all
the nations,’! (like heathen nations! Judah and
Jerusalem desolated--
Isa 3:8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen:
because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes
of His glory., famine, Isa 3:1 For,
behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from
Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of
water,
Asaph knew that the LORD’s people
are in captivity in NATIONS, Eze. 32: 9, 12: 15, Eze. 39: 28-29, Jer 23: 7,8!
He knew of the Assyrian of Isa 14:
25-26, whose work is to be brought to an end FOR ETERNAL THINGS OF JESUS CHRIST
TO BE ESTABLISHED! LORD has His counsels as HE IS THE WONDERFUL COUNSELLOR!
He even gave 70 years to the church
to be in people’s wilderness, Eze 20:35!
When Judah is like all nations---you
would see a list in Jer 25: 15-26, which were given to Nebuchadnezzar, Jer 25:
9---one king ruled as Nebuchadnezzar!
It is the leader—spoken as the man
who shook the whole world,
Isa 14: 16--Is this the man that
made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17
That made the world as a wilderness, ---BUT
THE LORD FOUGHT THEM—
22
For I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off
from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.
THIS MAN IS THE MAN OF CITIES TOO, Jer 20: 16!
WHEN Judah IS LIKE ALL THE NATIONS---THIS MAN RULES ALL
THOSE CITIES IN NATIONS! ---this is the one-man government!
LORD is a wonderful counsellor, Isa
9; 6
LORD WILL CORRECT HIS CHURCH, WITH HIS WONDERFUL COUNSEL—

Ps. 83: 9 –Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to
Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:10
Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles
like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us
take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
Da 11:14-- also the robbers
of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but
they shall fall.(who is trumpeting the LORD’s vision to the
world, other than God’s end time church? –but they shall fall!)
Da 11:36 And the king shall do according to his will;
and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall
speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the
indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
The one-man government!---but the time is determined by
God! He allows all these things to happen! When one goes to high levels and
then fall---the fall is
greater!
When it is so---PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER NEVER TO EXALT THEMSELVES!
That is why the LORD fought as with
Midian! Isa 9:4, Isa 10:26
Isa 9: 4—fighting was done by the
Almighty Father, JESUS CHRIST, Isa 9: 6 with WONDERFUL COUNSELLING! –Isa 9: 6
Isa 40:25 To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be
equal? saith the Holy One.
Isa 46:5 To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal,
and compare me, that we may be like?
PCG LEADERS THOUGHT THEY ARE “GODS”!
Read the true vision –
http://www.restoringcaptivity.com
PCG thought of doing their own work
as if they possess SANCTUARY OF GOD!
They forgot that JESUS CHRIST is
the HEAD, Eph 1:22, Eph 5:23, Col 1:18
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the
firstborn from the dead; that in all things He might have the preeminence.
When
JESUS CHRIST had sacrificed HIMSELF, HE HAS THE PREEMINENCE!
The servants, the Levi –prophet and
ministry should serve Him according to His words! His spirit! –the things He
teaches! Not use their spirit as Jer 2: 30 says!
That is why the LORD FOUGHT THE
CHURCH, EXECUTING HIS JUDGMENTS, through assembly, Eze. 16: 40-42! What happened?--
Eze 21:26 -- exalt him
that is low, and abase him that is high.—LORD took away the prophet, as Asaph wrote, Ps. 74: 9
Ps. 83: 13 O my God,
make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire
burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them
with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
We had shown the LORD’s work amidst
us as “WIND—FIRE—STORM”!
East wind, Isa 27:8 , Jer 18:17, Eze 17:10, Eze 27:26 , Ho 13:15
Fire—words as fire, when people are
considered as wood, Jer 5: 14, Jer 23: 29, women set fire, Isa 27: 11-- he pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the
LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it, Isa 30:33--
Ps. 83: 16 Fill their
faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be
confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
When PCG is made to understand by
JESUS CHRIST, that is when their eyes are opened by HIM, they would be ashamed!
In Ezekiel temple they are to be ashamed!
Eze 43:10-11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have
done, shew them the form of the house,--- and
all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws
thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form
thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.
BUT
THIS SHAME IS NOT FOR LONG---PCG WOULD BE REJOICING VERY SOON!
Isa 61:7 For your shame ye shall have double; and for
confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they
shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
THIS IS A GREAT WORK DONE BY
JESUS CHRIST TO BRING IN THE EVERLASTING THINGS OF HIS—HIS COVENANT AND
INHERITANCE TO ISRAEL AND ALL BLESSINGS TO HIS PEOPLE---one should note---we
gentiles were grafted because of the fall of ISRAEL! Their FALL too was a
BLESSING for some!
Rom 11:
11--but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to
provoke them to jealousy.
12--Now if
the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the
riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
15--For
if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the
receiving of them be, but
life from the dead?
ISRAEL would be
given life through the life giving words of Ro 6: 3-7, when they take the words
to RETURN TO HIM, Hos 14: 1,2. they are not written as living in the register
of ISRAEL, Eze. 13: 9, but after they get life it would be recorded as in Re
21: 12.

H.W.Armstrong, the
man of God at that time pointed to “water baptizm” he showed us Col 2: 11-12
---but the LORD’s baptizm is with Holy Spirit and fire, Mt 3:11, Lu 3:16—fire is the LORD’s
words to burn all our wickedness, Isa 9: 18---IF OUR WICEKDNESS REMAIN after
baptizm, eternal life cannot be given!
To make us perfect
and holy to serve Him being with Him in His SANCTUARY, Ro 6: 19,22, the fire of His words were necessary to burn
such wickedness to BECOME NEW MEN IN CHRIST, Ro 6: 3-7,
2Co
5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,
he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have
become new.
Ga
6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither
circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.
WCG times did not teach many things about
JESUS CHRIST!
LORD’s baptizm was not accurately
explained! Baptizm into His death, Ro 6: 3-7 , Col 2: 11-12, and the cup of
blessing that one gets through HIS DEATH, were not explained--
LORD gives His Spirit to those who
get Baptizm unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7, THEY WOULD BE RESTORED FROM CAPTIVITY
AFTER POURING HIS SPIRIT, Eze. 39: 28,29. the LORD’s new men would even be
given “His love” as He sheds it along with His spirit, Ro 5: 5, to enable them
to continue keeping His laws of love.
This is because we are expected to
DEPART FROM INIQUITY, 2Tim 2: 19, Ro 6: 6.
WHEN YOU GET THE BAPTIZM OF RO 6: 3-7, WE BECOME NEW MEN TO
SERVE HIM IN Righteousness and Holiness, THUS BECOME THE HELP MEET TO SERVE
JESUS CHRIST! That is the WAY TO BECOME HIS BRIDE!
Therefore through baptizm of Ro 6: 3-7, we could prepare to
BECOME HIS BRIDE!
The bride of Re 21: 2 could be in heavenly places when she
baptizes with words of Ro 6: 3-7 (like Him we would be raised, Ro 6: 4, raised
us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ
Jesus, Eph 2:6, just as LORD raised, Eph 1:20, then we get all the blessings of
heavenly places, Eph 1:3, WHEN SPIRITUALLY WE ARE IN HEAVENLY PLACES, WE COULD
DESCEND AS NEW JERUSALEM, RE 21: 2).

Ps. 83: 18 That men
may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the
earth.
What lovely way Asaph is exalting
God! HIS NAME ALONE IS JEHOVAH! HE IS THE MOST HIGH! HE IS JESUS CHRIST who
came as a SON OF GOD, Heb 7: 3, to RULE THE TABERNACLE HE MADE, AFTER OFFERING
HIMSELF, Heb 8: 1-3, obtaining a more excellent ministry,--being -- the
mediator of a better covenant,--to make the NEW COVENANT, Heb 8: 7-13.
He offered Himself, and through
Baptizm unto His death, Ro 6: 3-7, which gives His rigteousness unto Holiness,
vss 19, 22, believers are purified to be His people in the SANCTUARY as He
would be in His SANCTUARY, Ps. 77: 13 (as wrote by Asaph in Ps. 77).
All praise to JESUS CHRIST the REDEEMER OF ISRAEL, WHOSE
NAME IS JEHOVAH, THE MOST HIGH OVER ALL THE EARTH!
ALL GLORY AND THANKSGIVING BE TO HIM, Amen.
