THEME: COVENANT
Exodus 34:12-13
Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be a snare in your midst. But you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images
INSIGHT
-The Lord made a clear warning to the Israelites; that they should not enter into any covenants with the Amorite, Canaanite, Hittite, Perizzite, Hivite & Jebusite, who had inhabited Canaan. This would have been a trap to them thus instructed them to destroy all places of idol worship. Idolatry, witchcraft, sorcery, wizardry & offering of libations to ancestors has been a common practice in the African tradition & other parts of the world. We might have entered into blood covenants either directly or indirectly through our forefathers which might have brought about snares in our blood lines causing common challenges in particulars area our lives, families or nation. These practices include: – offering of libations during child birth, circumcision, marriage in blood partnerships, when purchasing land & other properties, when building houses, when appeasing ancestor’s, witchcraft, sorcery or wizardry with particular intentions, idol worship etc. Some of these activities were performed when we were being born, young or are still being performed in our own communities; which could cause problems in certain area of our lives, families, nation or delay blessings. Every covenant involving blood should be corrected by blood. We find in Heb 2:14-15 & Heb 12:24 that; Jesus partook of flesh & blood just like us, that through His blood which speaks better things than that of Abel & has power to destroy the devil & sets us free from all forms of bondage, snares, curses or challenge, uniting us with Christ.
