Transitioning from the House of Saul to the House of David
The Hebron Concept
Today’s Focus: Transitioning from the House of Saul to the House of David
Scripture: 1 Chronicles 10:12-14; 13:1-3
Greetings Sons of God:
1 Chronicles 10:12-14: They arose, all the valiant men and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days. So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the Lord, even against the Word of the Lord, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it and enquired not of the Lord: therefore he slew him and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.
In our previous messages in this series we talked about how David loved Saul even unto death and when he reached this point of maturity, he was able to advance to Hebron. Now notice that Saul and his sons were buried in a place called Jabesh which means ashamed, confused or disappointed, to dry up or whither away. Saul’s house had fallen due to his transgressions against the Lord. After this the Lord handed the kingdom over to David, the son of Jesse. Now let me say this here and in the next series we will elaborate:
The house of Saul or spirit of Saul is the spirit of the Institutional church
Please keep that in mind because in the next message we will elaborate but look how the scripture ends. It says the kingdom was handed over to David the son of Jesse. What is this saying? The Kingdom of God is arranged in a patriarchal model of fathers and sons and the Father has always intended to place His Son King to rule over His House and Holy Nation. It will be on the model of fathers and sons that the Father builds the Nation. But it will be at this position in the spirit called Hebron where the Holy Nation will unite and inaugurate Jesus Christ the King over this Holy Nation now watch this:
1 Chronicles 13:1-3: And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds and with every leader. And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If it see good unto you, and that it be of the Lord our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, that are left in all the land of Israel, and with them also to the priests and Levites which are in their cities and suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us: And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we enquired not at it in the days of Saul
This is the picture of the gathering of Israel together at Hebron but more over a return of the Ark of the Covenant to Israel. What does this mean? Remember in our previous teaching series “The Ark of the Covenant and House of God” we said the Ark of the Covenant are the principles we are to live by in order to guarantee the presence of the Lord. Remember Israel went no where without the Ark leading them. Inside the Ark we know were three items which represent three crucial principles:
1. Golden Pot of Manna – Grace of God
2. Aaron’s Rod – Theocratic Leadership
3. Tablets of the Covenant – Covenant of Sonship
Everything is starting to come together or consolidate in this place called Hebron. 2013 will be a crucial year for the House of God because we will begin to see the consolidation and joining of the House of God into the Holy Nation. We know that the Holy Nation is 12 spiritual tribes which are made up of clans, which are made up of households headed by fathers.
In the next teaching series we will examine how the spirit of Saul is the spirit of the Institutional church and how it is mandatory that we migrate to the house of David because the grace of God is in the model of fathers and sons and it is the sons of God that dominion is given to, not the slaves of Saul.
Peace, Love and Grace from the Father,
