Morning with Ebenezer

EBENEZER
 
Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far the Lord has helped us.”
1 Samuel 7:12 NKJV

The meaning of the word Ebenezer as it was used in the Bible; it means the Stone of Help. This was the name of memorial stone set up by the prophet Samuel to mark a critical battle and victory in Jewish history.

In the New Testament Jesus remanded the Pharisees the prophecy of David concerning Himself; that the stone which was rejected by the builders has become to be a chief corner stone. (Psalm 118:22, Matthew 21:42)

Samuel used the Ebenezer stone as the sign of victory to mark a critical battle and victory; which in the New Testament Jesus used a chief corner stone as the sign of Himself. Jesus is our Ebenezer in the New Testament; Jesus is our help in this age. He won a critical battle against the devil and his armies of darkness and set us free from every kind of sin and burdens which a man had soon after the first sin.

Jesus was rejected by the builders i.e. His own people and who later came to be a savior of all men especially those who believe. Today by faith you and I can have a direct access to go to our Father through His Son Jesus. If you need anything in life right now just be encouraged that you have a stone of help who is Jesus Christ and He is able to help you.
