Irmela Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 Q2. (Joshua 3:5) Why did the Israelites need to consecrate themselves? God was going to do a great work among them and so they were to separate themselves for this. It was to get themselves prepared spiritually. They were to prepare themselves for a manifestation of the God of all the earth. What might this entail? At Mt Sinai they were given instructions to wash their clothes (possibly also ensure that they themselves were clean) and then also abstain from sexual intimacy so they would be ceremonially clean. In what ways do you personally need to reconsecrate yourself? You dedicate / give yourself to God. Separate or stay away from defiling sin. What would this require of you? What would your congregation need to do to reconsecrate itself? Spend time specifically before the Lord and ask Him to reveal anything that is separating me / us from a closer walk with Him and then to sort it out so that I /we am / are one with Him. In fact this should be a way of life of a child of God. It should be done . How else do we cleanse ourselves. How do we get to live the life He expects. "Be ye holy, for I am holy".
