 在 帳 幕 和 壇 的 四 圍 立 了 院 帷 , 把 院 子 的 門 簾 掛 上 。 這 樣 , 摩 西 就 完 了 工 。
 當 時 , 雲 彩 遮 蓋 會 幕 , 耶 和 華 的 榮 光 就 充 滿 了 帳 幕 。

                                                             出 埃 及 記 40:33-34


 And he erected the court around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.
 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
                                                              Exodus 40:33-34

    What I got today from Jesus is: God's glory appears when God's mission is accomplished

    What I heard from Jesus today is a call to have the whole book of Exodus as a blueprint to accomplish God's Kingdom work. We can learn a simple formula from the disobedience and fear of Moses to his total obedience and courage. Then, from the disobedience and fear of God's people to their total obedience, courage and willingness of them because they experienced God's power and had a total trust in Moses leadership.

   Then, God's mission was accomplished. Then, God's glory and presence came!

   Wow! How glorious! Do you want to experience that? Of course you do, right?  Do you know what to do? I do hope and pray that you know what to do after reading the book of Exodus as a blueprint to experience listen and obey. 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to know how to experience your great power to accomplish your Kingdom work and that we can experience your glory and presence in a way we have never dream to experience.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

 這 一 切 工 作 都 是 以 色 列 人 照 耶 和 華 所 吩 咐 摩 西 做 的 。
 耶 和 華 怎 樣 吩 咐 的 , 他 們 就 怎 樣 做 了 。 摩 西 看 見 一 切 的 工 都 做 成 了 , 就 給 他 們 祝 福 。

                                                             出 埃 及 記 39:42-43


According to all that the Lord had commanded Moses, so the people of Israel had done all the work. And Moses saw all the work, and behold, they had done it; as the Lord had commanded, so had they done it. Then Moses blessed them.
                                                              Exodus 39:42-43

Please click the links to Exodus 38-39

    What I got today from Jesus is: Do as I say

    What I heard from Jesus today is the secret to do God's work. It is so simple, just like playing "Simon says game". But, it is the most difficult task on earth!

    The secret is to follow your God appointed leaders and just do as you are told. One word: TRUST. Please take a look from the beginning of the book of Exodus, how God prepared Moses to be a trustful leader. After that work be done that all the people trust in Moses, then everything is so simple. Money, offerings, task and everything is not a big deal anymore. 

    That's how soldiers are being trained. Follow the order of your superior, no matter is just one rank higher than you are. That's so simple. If you do not obey, then you will be court martial.

    What happen now? No one trusting anyone. The Deceiver has been so successful that Godly servants are being questioned, accused, persecuted and killed by their own people. No one can have the authority any more to exercise that "Do as I say"!

    But, here in Exodus 39: 42-43, it is so simple. They just did as what God said. And everything be done!

    Can you trust your leader in that way? 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to be willing to trust our Godly leader as how those Israelites trusted Moses. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
