Divine Guidance

Day 28

Reading: Ex. 38:1- Ex. 40:38

Stewardship is another principle of God that runs through the bible. God expects us to be good stewards of His resources. An accounting system of all that was given was set up to give a proper account of all the resources that were given for the work. Transparency in the resources given to the work of God will lead to people trusting the work as wholesome not a corrupt idea. 

Let your day begin with a meeting with God. God instructs Moses to set up the Tabernacle on the first day of the first month in the second year after leaving Egypt. The month of liberty would be the month they would set up the Tabernacle. My liberty is connected to my worship of God. The Tabernacle was to be dedicated to God most importantly. 

The set up of the Tabernacle would enable the perosn on entering to sacrifice with a burnt offering which is a place of confession. They would then move to the lavar for cleansing. The priest would then move to the Holy Place where the Lampstand and the Table of Showbread were situtated on opposite sides and at the end was the altar of incense which was infront of a veil separating the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies where the Ark of Covenant was kept.


The Tabernacle and all its contents were anointed to be hallow before God. TO be anointed is to be set apart for divine use. God desires that our bodies be His Tabernacle where He dwells. Lord anoint me for Your use. 

After Moses set up the Tabernacle and sets everything and everyone according to the plan of God, the Taberanacle is filled with the glory of God and not even Moses could enter. This tells me that there is a dimension of God that man cannot stand. Lord, unveil this dimension to me. The children of Israel only moved when the Cloud of glory moved. As long as the cloud rested on the tabernacle the people didnt move. This is divine guidance and shows how God desires to lead me as a believer. Notice that this cloud by day and fire by night was not just seen by a few but by everyone. The church needs to realise that God is waiting to reveal Himself to all not just a few! Lord guide me O thou Great Jehovah!

Memory Verse: Ex. 40:34

Decree: 

Father, thank You for loving me. I submit my life to God and desire to be led of Him all the days of my life. I decree that my eyes are open to see God leading me. I decree that my ears are open to hear the voice of God leading me. I decree that I am a carrier of the glory of God. I exhibit the glory of God everywhere I go . I decree that I am the Taberancle of God. I am set apart for God's use and will only bring glory to God. Today I decree that every sin hold over me is broken as I am set apart for God's use in Jesus name. Amen

Absalom's Treachery

Day 91 Reading: 2 Sam. 14:1 - 2 Sam. 15:37 One of life's most painful lessons is the treachery of human beings. When family or friends hurt you and leave you grieving the pain is not the same as when someone out on the street does something wrong. The pain goes deeper and it's easy to become bitter. Absalom had fled from Israel knowing that he was a wanted man for the murder and revenge on Ammon his step-brother. Joab arranged for a wise woman to go see David and get him to forgive Absalom. The wise woman made David realise that he was not setting a godly example by exiling Absalom. The wise woman made David understand that God will not banish anyone but he will seek the person out. God will do everything in His power to restore the banished person. The wise woman was asking David not to forget the grace of God that enables one to enjoy forgiveness. David gets Absalom brought back to Jerusalem however for 2 years he didn't see him. Now, this was worse than ...

Arise!!

The world today is one where many feel as though life is beating them down. The different challenges we face in this journey called life have punched many down and out. The fuel price increases, the job cuts, economic recession in different parts of the world, government changes either through the ballot or bullet, governments going broke, floods, drought, to just but name a few things facing many in the world today. It's difficult to go to a party and you don't hear bad news relating to someone you know. The world is changing. The weather patterns are affected by global warming, societal values held by previous generations are being obliterated by the ones following, and guess what, life for many is a nightmare. Today, I want to encourage that person who is lying down beaten by life. We all at times go through situations in life where we are down. It may appear that life's challenges have handed down a technical knockout blow, but humanity was not made to be beaten by lif...

From the Pit to Safety

The news about the miners rescue has filled the atmosphere with a real lever of optimism. What began as a sad tale has ended well. As I have followed this story over the last 69 days I have had a few thoughts about some of the symbolism of this whole experience. In life we all will find ourselves in a pit (mine) of some sort.Thus the decision to see what I could learn from these great gentlemen. Firstly, they were miners. Do you realise that we all are miners in life? You may not mine for copper but as a lawyer you are mining legal matters that bring you profit. You may be a doctor whose responsibility is to mine to the root of the issue that is troubling a patients body!! We all are mining for a living!!! The miners numbered 33. Jesus was 33 when He was buried. After He died He was buried before He arose. We saw 33 men come out alive. Talk about a resurrection in their lives and in the lives of the men, families, and nation. Each miner underwent change. Whilst in the darkness of th...
