The Bible caters for all of us and all our needs. The most illiterate person can understand the saving message of God’s love, while the most genius theologian will be able to intrigue you with the symbolic value of the numbers in the Bible. Most of us know that 3 symbolizes completeness, as in the Trinity, where Father, Son and Holy Spirit are in complete fullness and wholeness of existence and relationship.

7 symbolizes perfection and can be understood as 3 + 4. Three indicates the Trinity and 4 indicates the 4 corners of the earth or die 4 directions of the wind. Wherever 7 is used it reflects the omnipresence of God over all the earth. Therefore there are 7 Spirits before the throne in Revelations 1:4.

8 symbolizes grace and 12 represents government. There were 12 tribes in Judaism and 12 disciples were called by our Savior.  In Revelations 4 the heavenly elders are described as two times 12 – representing both the old- and the new covenants. We are presently living in 2012. This is the year of government. Therefore it is not co-incidental that the ANC has centenary celebrations during the year of government.

We as Christians are able to work towards godly government in all spheres of life. Where ever God reigns He promised that His children will be covered in blessings and will experience peace:                                                                                            

Blessed shall you be in the city and blessed shall you be in the country.

Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.

Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.

Blessed shall you be when you come in and blessed shall you be when you go out.

The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.

The Lord will command the blessings on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

Beloved, choose today: who will you serve? People, your own interests or the one and only living God. Who ever chooses the latter will share in the eternal Kingdom of God our Father, Jesus Christ our Lord and the Holy Spirit!

Pronounce and practice with me in in your personal life the governance of Jesus Christ during 2012 and it will impact SA!

Be blessed!
