The Bikoreem was the first fruits of the harvest. When the first fruits were given to God, they were lifted to Him. It was understood that all the rest of the harvest was yet to come and was sanctified by that. Messiah was the First Fruits of the dead. It is amazing because He rose on the Hebrew day when the First Fruits were offered. He was the First Fruits of what was to come and in James 1:18 He calls us the first fruits, the Bikoreem of creation. That means you are not to follow this life, you are to lead this creation. You have the power to lead in this creation. Do not follow your troubles, your problems, your sorrows, your bitterness, but lead. You have the power to go in a new direction, to live in newness of life. You have the power, the Bikoreem. Stop following the creation, your situation, your circumstance. You are the Bikoreem - lead it. Start leaving your problems, your emotions and start leading creation. When Messiah rose as the Bikoreem, it was so that you might also become the first fruits, the glory.
From Message #613 - The Bikoreem
Don't be led by this world, by your problems, by your sins, or by your situations - take the lead today and step out and walk in the newness of life.
Scripture: Romans 8:23 | James 1:18
