Leviticus 25:9-11

9

Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.

10

And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

11

A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed.

And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

40

But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:

41

And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.

Summary: Kept Until The Jubilee

Overview

This sermon focuses on the concept of "Jubilee" as presented in Leviticus 25, extending its meaning beyond a literal 50th year celebration to a state of spiritual freedom, restoration, and victory. The central message is that God will preserve and keep His people through trials and struggles until they reach their ultimate Jubilee, whether in this life or in eternity.

Key Points

  • The Year of Jubilee in Leviticus 25 represented a time of freedom, restoration of possessions, and return to families for the Israelites, particularly for those in debt or servitude.

  • Spiritually, Jubilee signifies the freedom God offers from bondage to sin, fear, and the flesh, a freedom fulfilled in Jesus Christ.

  • God's promise is to keep and preserve believers through life's difficulties until they reach their personal or eternal Jubilee.

  • Several enemies can hinder progress towards Jubilee: ignorance of God's promises, growing lackadaisical or complacent, unbelief, distraction from worldly noise, and the enemy stealing territory or victory.

  • Despite challenges and unanswered questions in life, believers are encouraged to trust God's faithfulness and remember His promises of restoration and recovery.

  • Jubilee is about recovering all that has been lost or taken by the enemy, with God's power to restore and bring beauty for ashes, joy for mourning.

Scripture References

  • Leviticus 25:9-10, 39

  • Isaiah 61 (quoted by Jesus in Luke)

Takeaways

  • Do not grow complacent or accustomed to difficult circumstances; actively pursue the freedom and restoration God offers.

  • Resist ignorance by learning and sharing God's promises, and actively combat unbelief by trusting in His power.

  • Guard against distractions from the world's noise and focus on God's voice, trusting that He will deliver you from snares.

  • Reclaim all the territory and promises God has for you, refusing to let the enemy steal your joy, faith, or calling, knowing that God's Jubilee means full recovery.
