Day 27: Exodus 30-32
Main People:
Moses, Aaron,
Israelites
Key Points:
*Today,
we are reading about making plans for the incense altar, washbasin, anointing
oil, and incense
*Craftsman
are also filled with the Spirit of God. Usually, we think that only preachers
are ‘called’ or the only ones filled with that much ‘spirit’. But we learn here
that’s not the case. Even if you aren’t a preacher, your talent is God given
and He’s put His spirit in you to help you do what He’s called you to do.
*The
Sabbath is an important day of rest… do you rest on the Sabbath? (Um… I don’t L . I need too, though. I’d feel
better.)
*The
Golden Calf—This is the part that makes me want to shake my head at Aaron, but
to be fair, what would we have done in his situation.
And
maybe not to the same extent, but we are more like the Israelites here than we
like to admit. God had just saved them two/three months before. Moses went on
the mountain and the people forgot.
We
are the same. God can do a miracle for us one day, and the next we get down,
upset, whatever wanting more. And we find our ‘happiness’ in other things
besides God—we make our own ‘golden calf’.
Maybe
we should get a notebook and write down all the wonderful things God has done
for us, that way, we won’t forget when one thing doesn’t go our way.
*Moses,
being an angry person, broke the tablets that God had JUST written on!
*And
a bunch of people died…
Verses that Jumped Out at Me:
Exodus 32:8—How quickly they have
turned away from the way I commanded them to live!
