The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 133

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the Lord: He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried. All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk. All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the Lord, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow. All the days that he separateth himself unto the Lord he shall come at no dead body. He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration of his God is upon his head. All the days of his separation he is holy unto the Lord. (Numbers 6:1-8) 21 God will, continually has been separating, separating, and that’s what He’s doing tonight. That’s what He always does. You can see it in every meeting. He separates faith from unbelief. He speaks out. He declares Himself to those who will believe Him and have faith in Him. 22 Now we find out, in Numbers, the 6th chapter, that a Nazarite’s call, a Nazarite call was to separate themselves from all the world, to the Word of God. That is a Nazarite call, separated. 23 We find out that Samson was a Nazarite, unto the Lord, and he was separated from the…by a sign. And this sign was that he was to wear his hair long, with seven locks. It was a—a sign of separation, that he was called for a purpose. 24 And I don’t want to get started on this, because I said that it…I was just going to speak a few minutes. 25 But I think, today, when we see our sisters wearing long hair, as the Bible said they should, I think it’s a Nazarite sign that they want to follow the Lord. And I know that sounds flat, and I—I—I want it to go home, see, because it is. It looks like somebody is trying to—to do, keep a—a something that God told them to do. No matter what the price, the world has to say about It out there, or how many scornful, or laughers, or critics, that doesn’t bother a person that’s totally separated from the things of the world, to the things of God. They’ll obey the Word, and separate themselves from the things of the world, because the Word separates them. 26 I know they stand criticism. But if we wasn’t criticized, then there’d be something wrong. The world always knows its own. But as I’ve said, that, remember, criticism, on account of the Word of God, is only growing pains of His grace. It shows that you have separated yourself to—to be a Christian, to act like one, to live like one, to obey every Commandment of God. And it’s a—it’s a Nazarite vow, to separate, a call from God that separates you from the things of the World. 27 I believe, tonight, that every man and woman, every boy and girl, that’s born of the Spirit of God, is a Nazarite unto the Lord; because they have separated them things, themselves, from the cares of the world and whatever the world has got to say. 64-0121 - "God's Word Calls For A Total Separation From Unbelief" Rev.
