Genesis 27:28 May God give you of heaven's dew and of earth's richness-- an abundance of grain and new wine.
Deuteronomy 11:13-15 So if you faithfully obey the commands I am giving you today-- to love the LORD your God and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul-- 14 then I will send rain on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains, so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and oil. 15 I will provide grass in the fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.
Psalm 4:5-8 Offer right sacrifices and trust in the LORD. 6 Many are asking, "Who can show us any good?" Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD. 7 You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. 8 I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.
in v 14, the Lord said, you may gather in your grain, new wine and oil. Have you ever wonder what the grain, new wine and oil represent?
ReplyDeletegrain may be symbolic of the Word of God, our daily bread,
new wine may be symbolic of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit that makes us glad, and believers can be drunk in the Spirit, like in Acts 2.
oil speaks of the anointing of God, for with the anointing, the empowering of the Holy Spirit, we can do all things through Christ.
