Too much!

 “So Moses gave a commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, “Let neither man nor woman do any more work for the offering of the sanctuary.” And the people were restrained from bringing, for the material they had was sufficient for all the work to be done—indeed too much.”

‭‭Exodus‬ ‭36‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭

It is safe to say most churches don’t have the problem Moses had…giving too much! May we be givers to the Lord’s work as well where the Pastor has say “your giving too much”!

Interceder

“So Moses made haste and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped. Then he said, “If now I have found grace in Your sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray, go among us, even though we are a stiff-necked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us as Your inheritance.””

‭‭Exodus‬ ‭34‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭

 May we all have a friend like Moses who intercedes for us unto the Lord. Yes Jesus is our main interceder but I am talking about godly friends!

Beware, lest you forget!

 “then beware, lest you forget the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.”

‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭6‬:‭12‬ ‭

God here was telling Israel when they enter the promise land and are enjoying the blessings God provided don’t forget the Lord.

May it be a warning to us as well. When things are going well and we are enjoying the blessings of God do not forget Him. We have a tendency to only want Him when we have problems!

Be ready!

 “Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.”

‭‭II Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭2‬ ‭

We are not to ever separate ourselves from Jesus and His love message. At work, on vacation, at home, and at play our life and speech should tell of Jesus! 

Is your life speaking Jesus at all times?

Complaints

 “Also Moses said, “This shall be seen when the Lord gives you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to the full; for the Lord hears your complaints which you make against Him. And what are we? Your complaints are not against us but against the Lord.””

‭‭Exodus‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ ‭

May we never complain about the Lord for He has blessed us more than we deserve! In every way! Thank you Lord for all you have done and stop me in my tracks if I ever complain of what you have done!

Tom

Refreshed!

 “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭11‬:‭25‬ ‭

God tells us time and time again in His word to bless others with what He has blessed us with. It lifts our souls when we help others. When we obey God continues to bless us generously!!! Refresh yourself and help others!!!

When I see the blood!

 “Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.”

‭‭Exodus‬ ‭12‬:‭13‬ ‭

“When I see the blood”…is a beautiful thing for the follower of Jesus. The same thing is what sets us free from our sins only it’s the blood of Jesus!
