The Ten Commandments And The Ten Levels Of Intercessory Prayer

There are ten special kinds of Intercessory prayer that fit together with the Ten Commandments of Moses.

The first commandment, “I am the LORD thy God” fits together with baw-kash Intercession.

         I.    I am the LORD thy God

                     1. Baw-kash Intercession

The Hebrew word baw-kash means to seek after the LORD in worship, to apply for an oracle, to strive after, to beseech, to desire, to make inquisition, to procure, to seek after, to require, to demand, to supplicate, to be sought, to petition.

The first commandment recognizes the Supreme, Sovereignty of God. Since the LORD God rescued Israel out of the bondage and slavery of Egypt, He has a moral claim on their gratitude and obedience as their Benefactor and their Redeemer...

The Breastplate of the High Priest in the Old Testament was a splendrous ornament that covered the High Priest’s breast.

God’s instruction to Moses said that the Breastplate was to be made of a richly embroidered cloth in which twelve precious stones were to be set in four rows. Each stone was to be engraved with the name of one of the twelve Tribes of Israel.

The composition of this Breastplate is described in Exodus 28:15-30

Jesus taught many great Parables for the purpose of revealing His Truth to some, while hiding it from others.

One of Christ’s greatest Parables was the “Parable of the Talents.” In this Parable, Jesus compared the Kingdom of Heaven to a man traveling into a far country who, when he was ready to leave the country, delivered his talents to three different servants. The first servant received five talents, the second servant received two talents, and the third servant received one talent. The number of talents that each of the three servants received was based upon their respective abilities to double them.

The LORD’s divine reason for being anointed with the LORD’s Holy Anointing Oil was especially for the consecration of a person, place, or thing to God for His Work and use. The word anoint means to pour oil upon a person, a place, or a thing for sacred purposes.

Under the Old Testament Covenant, the anointing with the Anointing Oil was done in the case of installing the following persons in their offices and ministries:

• Jewish Priests,
• Jewish Kings,
• Jewish Prophets, and ultimately,
• the Jewish Messiah, Jesus Christ.

The Mosaic Tabernacle and everything in it was also to be anointed in order to consecrate all its furniture and utensils to be used in God’s service.
