The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 148

And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke: And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without the camp, and one shall slay her before his face: And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times: And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn: And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer. Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the even. And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even. And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin. (Numbers 19:1-9) 24 And then, I noticed the red heifer how He said she must be, not never have a yoke upon her; if you notice how it represented Jesus. When He come He never yoked himself up with any worldly order. He never taken Pharisee or Sadducee side; He stayed free from both. He declared God to both sides. And another way, that she must be killed in the presence of the high priest. The priest must see the heifer killed. And so was Jesus, when Caiaphas even sentenced Him and so forth. There He was killed in the presence of the high priest, right upon Golgotha where he could look from the temple and see Him dying in the presence of the high priest. What a picture, how it speaks of the Lord Jesus. And then when they must take his fingers, and pick up the blood, and make seven stripes across the door of the—right in the door of the congregation, that no one could come into the door except recognizing that something died to go before them. It was a public testimony of the Lord Jesus. Oh, friend, I want you to see that so bad: a public testimony, seven stripes representing the seven church ages; which by Israel, the seven church ages, we’re in the last, the Laodicean. And to every church age, He was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Then it was to be burnt. All the body was to be burnt, and was to be made a waters of separation, mixed with water, and kept in a clean place outside the court. Notice, that represented the waters of separation, represented the Word of God now: Wash us by the water by the Word. The Word is the waters of separation. Christ was the sacrificial beast. And He died in order… You sick people listen to this. Christ died in order that He might be able to fulfill every Word. He was the Word. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us, and died making the waters of separation, and this is the Word. This is Christ, every Word in Here is God Itself wrote in print. Receive It into your heart and watch what happens after you receive It. Just take any Divine promise. Listen to this, and you can make this statement, it’s on recordings, everything. But I say this, and challenge anybody. The right mental attitude towards any Divine promise of this Word will bring it to pass, regardless of what it is. If God said so, you take the right mental attitude towards that Word, and see what happens. 55-0606 - "The Waters Of Separation" Rev. William Marrion Branham
