來 對 摩 西 說 : 百 姓 為 耶 和 華 吩 咐 使 用 之 工 所 拿 來 的 , 富 富 有 餘 。
摩 西 傳 命 , 他 們 就 在 全 營 中 宣 告 說 : 無 論 男 女 , 不 必 再 為 聖 所 拿 甚 麼 禮 物 來 。 這 樣 才 攔 住 百 姓 不 再 拿 禮 物 來 。

                                                             出 埃 及 記 36:5-6

and said to Moses, “The people bring much more than enough for doing the work that the Lord has commanded us to do.”  So Moses gave command, and word was proclaimed throughout the camp, “Let no man or woman do anything more for thecontribution for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing,

    What I got today from Jesus is: More than enough offerings

    What I heard from Jesus today is an encouragement that the same situation might happen to churches if they have experienced the great power of God and are willing to listen and obey to their Godly leaders.

    There are so many churches in the whole world have financial problems. We worry about out General Fund, we worry about our Building Fund, Development Fund, Mission Fund… Who are those personal to blame with?

    Don't put the blame on the others but to join the team to make as much as you can offer. One day, your church might experience what Moses and his people experienced. You would have more than enough and ask your people to stop making those special offerings. And, some of them would feel so sorry because they have lost their chance.

    Let's get every opportunity to make our offerings so that our church will have more than enough to do God's Kingdom work. 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to have a chance to experience that more than enough offerings miracle at least once in our life time. Help us to start with our own offering. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

以 色 列 人 , 無 論 男 女 , 凡 甘 心 樂 意 獻 禮 物 給 耶 和 華 的 , 都 將 禮 物 拿 來 , 做 耶 和 華 藉 摩 西 所 吩 咐 的 一 切 工 。

                                                             出 埃 及 記 35:29


All the men and women, the people of Israel, whose heart moved them to bring anything for the work that the Lordhad commanded by Moses to be done brought it as a freewill offering to the Lord.
                                                              Exodus 35:29

Please click the links to Exodus 34-35

    What I got today from Jesus is: Waiting for your freewill offerings

    What I heard from Jesus today is a call for us to experience the power of that big wave of offering as describes here in chapter 35. Is it easy to attain this kind of Wave? No, not at all. You can try to read from chapter 20 to this chapter and you will understand how much did they suffer because of their disobedience. 

     They can do that is because all of them experience a true listen and obey reality. From that truly listen and obey experience they are willing to give beyond what they can give.

     Have you experience this kind of Wave? Why you can't experience this ind of Wave?

     Jesus is waiting for your freewill offerings if you have not done so. 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to be able to truly experience listen and obey so that we can join in the outpouring of offerings momentum to build your own church and to extend your mighty Kingdom.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
