Dedicate Your Temple to the Lord

The time is approaching for the Festival of Dedication on Kislev 25 . Jesus was present during this festival which commemorates the dedication of the temple after the defilement by the Greek and Syrian army in 165 BC by the Maccabees.

This was the day the Jewish priest

Mattathias was the father of Judas Maccabeus and his family overcame the Greeks and the miracle oil was found so the menorah could be lit.

The oil miraculously burned for 8 days - the number 8 represents new beginnings. You are the temple of the Holy Spirit and God is releasing His Spirit which is a “miracle oil “

so you will shine bright like the menorah did in the temple. When we set aside time to dedicate our temple unto Him we will be revived by His Spirit.

As we seek the Lord and “rededicate” ourselves to Him we submit to His flame and oil igniting our lives ! This is the beginning of wisdom, to revere the Lord.

As God hears our prayers of rededication and submission, He will release the spirit of wisdom. Wisdom is when one has faith to hear the voice of the Lord and respond to His voice. Remember man does not live by bread alone but instead every word that proceedeth from God’s mouth we need to respond to. That pleases God and builds our relationship with Him! He is pleased with His children who hear His voice and obey.

Psalm 21:20 reads, “There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.”

Jesus was in the temple during the festival of dedication. This is an important time to dedicate or rededicate yourself unto God!

John 10:22-30 reads,

“And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.”
