The LORD instructed Moses to have two silver trumpets made. They were to have a two-fold purpose, namely, for calling the congregation and directing the movement of the same. Specifically, the trumpets were to be used to …<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
…call the whole congregation to gather at the Tabernacle,<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
…call the elders to gather to Moses, <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
…sound the advance to break camp,<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
…signal the time to gather to camp<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
…sound the alarm for war,<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
…and to celebrate a day of gladness for holiday feasts and sacrifices.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The LORD told the prophet Isaiah to write “Lift up your voice like a trumpet; tell My people their transgression” (Isa. 58:1). This is the symbol of the Gospel. For we are to sound the Gospel trumpet abroad, so that every nation hears, and every believer is called to gather to the Lord Jesus, our King and Savior. So let us make a sure sound (cf. 1 Cor. 14:8).<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

For one Day, “the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first” (1 Thess. 4:16). And on that Day, “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye… the last trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Cor. 15:52).<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

PRAYER: Dear Father, strengthen us to sound the Gospel trumpet until that Day when Jesus returns and the last trumpet sounds. Help us to make a sure sound as we call people to follow Jesus. O what joy it is to hearken to the sound of Your trumpet. In Jesus’ name, amen.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
