Exodus 30 - 32
EXODUS 30
The Altar of Incense
Ex 37:25–28
1 (Ex 37:25–28; Rev 8:3) Also, you must make an altar for burning incense.
You must make it of acacia wood.
2 (Ex 27:2) It must be a cubit in length, and its width a cubit.
It will be square. Its height will be two cubits;
(About 11/2 feet long and wide and 3 feet high,
or 45 centimeters long and wide and 90 centimeters high.)
the horns shall be of one piece with it.
3You must overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides all around,
and its horns; and you must make a molding of gold all around it.
4 (Ex 25:27) You must make two golden rings for it under its molding.
You must make them on its two sides, on opposite sides of it,
and they will be holders for the poles with which to carry it.
5 Then you must make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
6 (Ex 25:21–22) You must put it before the veil that is by the ark
of the testimony, in front of the mercy seat that is over the testimony,
where I will meet with you.
7 (1Sa 2:28; Ex 27:20–21) Aaron must burn sweet incense on it.
Every morning, when he trims the lamps, he must burn incense.
8 When Aaron lights the lamps at sundown, he must burn incense on it.
It is to be a perpetual incense before the Lord throughout your generations.
9 (Lev 10:1)You must offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt sacrifice,
nor grain offering, and you must not pour out a drink offering on it.
10 (Lev 16:18; 23:27) Aaron must make atonement on its horns once a year
with the blood of the sin offering of atonement. Once a year he must make
atonement on it throughout your generations. It is most holy to the Lord.
The Atonement Money
11 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 (Nu 31:50; Ex 38:25–26) When you take the census of the children of
Israel according to their number, then each man is to pay a ransom for
his life to the Lord when you count them, so that there be no plague
among them when you number them.
13 (Lev 27:25; Nu 3:47) This is what everyone who is counted must give:
half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary
(About 1/5 ounce, or 5.8 grams; and in v. 15. (a shekel is twenty gerahs).)
The half shekel will be the offering to the Lord.
14 Everyone who is counted, from twenty years old and above,
must give an offering to the Lord.
15 (Pr 22:2; Eph 6:9) The rich must not give more and the poor must not
give less than half a shekel when they give the offering to the Lord,
to make atonement for your lives.
16 (Ex 38:25–31; Nu 16:40) You must take the atonement money of the
children of Israel and give it for the service of the tent of meeting,
so that it may be a memorial to the children of Israel before the Lord,
to make atonement for your lives.
The Bronze Basin
17 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
18 (Ex 38:8; 40:7) You must also make a basin of bronze,
with its base also of bronze, for washing,
and you must put it between the tent of meeting and the altar,
and you must put water in it.
19 (Isa 52:11; Ex 40:31–32) For Aaron and his sons must wash
their hands and their feet from it.
20 When they go into the tent of meeting, or when they come near
the altar to minister by burning incense as an offering made
by fire to the Lord, they must wash with water so that they will not die.
21 (Ex 28:43) So they must wash their hands and their feet,
so that they will not die. And it will be a perpetual statute for them,
even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.
The Anointing Oil
22 Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23 (SS 4:14; Eze 27:19) Take for yourself choice spices: five hundred shekels
(About 12 1/2 pounds, or 5.8 kilograms; and in v. 24. )
of pure myrrh, half as much sweet-smelling cinnamon
(two hundred and fifty shekels About 61/4 pounds, or 2.9 kilograms.),
two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet-smelling cane,
24 (Ex 29:40; Ps 45:8) five hundred shekels of cassia,
according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin
(About 75 pounds, or 34 kilograms.) of olive oil.
25 (Ex 37:29; Nu 35:25; Ps 89:20) And you must make
with it a holy anointing oil, a perfumed compound,
the work of a perfumer. It will be a holy anointing oil.
26 (Nu 7:1) And you must anoint the tent of meeting with it,
along with the ark of the testimony,
27 and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils,
and the altar of incense,
28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils,
and the basin and its stand.
29 (Ex 29:37) You must consecrate them, so that they may be most holy.
Whatever touches them must be holy.
30 (Lev 8:12; 8:30) You must anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate them,
so that they may minister as priests to Me.
31 You must speak to the children of Israel, saying,
"This will be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations.
32 (Ex 30:25) It must not be poured out on anyone's body,
nor shall you make any other like it in composition.
It is holy, and it will be holy to you.
33 (Ex 30:38; Ge 17:14) Whoever makes anything like it
or whoever puts any of it on a layman
will be cut off from his people."
The Incense
34 (Ex 25:6; 37:29) Then the Lord said to Moses:
Take for yourself sweet spices,
stacte and onycha and galbanum,
sweet spices with pure frankincense of equal amounts.
35 (Ex 30:25; Lev 2:13) You shall make of these an incense,
a compound expertly blended, mingled with salt, pure and holy.
36 (Ex 25:22) You must beat some of it very fine and put
part of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting
where I will meet with you. It will be most holy to you.
37 As for the perfume which you will make, you may not
make it for yourselves using the same recipe.
It must be holy for the Lord to you.
38 (Ex 30:33) Whoever makes anything like it in order to use it
as perfume must be cut off from his people.
EXODUS 31
The Tabernacle Artisans
Ex 35:30–35
1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 (Ex 36:1; 35:30) See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri,
the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
3 (1Ki 7:14; Ex 35:31) I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom,
in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of craftsmanship
4 to devise artistic works for work with gold, with silver, and with bronze,
5 and in the cutting of stones for settings, and in carving of wood,
to work in all manner of craftsmanship.
6 (Ex 28:3; 35:10) I, indeed, I have given him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamak,
of the tribe of Dan, and I have given skill to all who are
specially skilled, that they may make everything that I have commanded you:
7 (Ex 36:8–37:9)the tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony,
and the mercy seat that is on it, and all the furniture of the tent,
8 (Ex 37:10–28) the table and its utensils, and the pure lampstand
with all its utensils, and the altar of incense,
9 (Ex 38:1–8) the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils,
and the basin and its stand,
10 the woven garments, the holy garments for Aaron the priest
and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests,
11 (Ex 37:29) the anointing oil and sweet incense for the holy place.
They must make them according to all that I have commanded you.
The Sabbath Law
12 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
13 (Eze 20:12; 20:20) Speak also to the children of Israel, saying,
"You must surely keep My Sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me
and you throughout your generations, that you may know that
I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
14 "You shall keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you.
Everyone who defiles it will surely be put to death.
For whoever does any work on it, that person will be cut
off from among his people.
15 (Ex 16:23; Lev 23:3) Six days may work be done,
but on the seventh is the Sabbath of complete rest,
holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath
day will surely be put to death.
16 Therefore the children of Israel must keep the Sabbath,
to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations,
for a perpetual covenant.
17 (Ge 1:31; Ex 31:13; Ge 2:2–3) It is a sign between Me
and the children of Israel forever, for in six days
the Lord made heaven and earth,
but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed."
18 (Ex 24:12; 32:15–16) When He had made an end of
communing with him on Mount Sinai,
He gave Moses the two tablets of testimony,
tablets of stone, written with the finger of God.
EXODUS 32
The Golden Calf
1 (Ex 24:18; Ac 7:40) Now when the people saw that Moses delayed
coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves
together around Aaron and said to him,
"Come, make us gods which will go before us. As for this Moses,
the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt,
we do not know what has become of him."
2 (Ex 12:35–36; Jdg 8:24–27) Aaron said to them,
"Break off the gold earrings that are in the ears of your wives,
your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me."
3 So all the people broke off the gold earrings that were in their ears
and brought them to Aaron.
4 (Dt 9:16; Ne 9:18) He received them from their hand,
and fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it into a molded calf.
Then they said, "This is your god, O Israel, who brought you up
from the land of Egypt."
5 (2Ki 10:20; Lev 23:2) When Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it.
And Aaron made a proclamation and said, "Tomorrow will be
a feast to the Lord."
6 (1Co 10:7; Nu 25:2) So they rose up early on the next day,
and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings.
And the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
7 (Dt 9:12; Ex 32:11) The Lord spoke to Moses, "Go, and get down,
for your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt,
have corrupted themselves.
8 (Ex 20:3–4; 20:23) They have quickly turned aside from the way
which I commanded them. They have made for themselves a molded calf,
and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said,
'This is your god, O Israel, which has brought you up
from the land of Egypt.' "
9 (Ex 33:3; 33:5) Then the Lord said to Moses,
"I have seen this people, and certainly, it is a stiff-necked people.
10 (Dt 9:14; Nu 14:12; Dt 9:19) Now therefore let Me alone,
so that My wrath may burn against them and I may destroy them.
And I will make of you a great nation.â€
11 (Dt 9:18–20; 9:26–29) But Moses sought the favour of the Lord his God,
and said, "Lord, why does Your wrath burn against Your people,
whom You have brought forth from the land of Egypt with great power
and with a mighty hand?
12 (Nu 14:13–16; Dt 9:28) Why should the Egyptians speak, saying,
'With evil intent He brought them out, to kill them in the mountains
and to destroy them from the face of the earth'?
Turn from Your fierce wrath and relent of this harm against Your people.
13 (Ge 12:7; 22:16) Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants,
to whom You swore by Yourself, and said to them, 'I will multiply
your descendants as the stars of the heavens, and all this land that
I have spoken of will I give to your descendants,
and they will inherit it forever.'"
14 (Ps 106:45; 2Sa 24:16) Then the Lord relented of the harm
which He said He would do to His people.
15 (Dt 9:15) Moses turned and went down from the mountain
with the two tablets of testimony in his hand.
The tablets were written on both their sides.
They were written on one side and on the other.
16 (Ex 31:18)bThe tablets were God's work,
and the writing was God's writing, engraved on the tablets.
17 (Ex 17:9; 24:13) When Joshua heard the noise of the people
as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is a sound of war in the camp."
18But he said:
"It is not the sound of those who shout for victory,
nor is it the sound of those who cry because of being overcome,
but I hear the sound of singing."
19 (Dt 9:16–17) As soon as he came near the camp,
he saw the calf and the dancing, and Moses' anger burned,
so he threw the tablets from his hands
and shattered them at the bottom of the mountain.
20 (Dt 9:21) Then he took the calf which they had made
and burned it in the fire, ground it to powder,
and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.
21 (Ge 20:9) Moses said to Aaron, "What did this people do to you,
that you have brought so great a sin upon them?"
22 (Dt 9:24; Ex 14:11) Aaron said, "Do not let the anger of my lord burn.
You know that the people are set on evil.
23 (Ex 32:1–4) For they said to me, 'Make a god for us which will go
before us, for this Moses, the man that brought us up from
the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
24 (Ex 32:4) I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let them break it off.'
So they gave it to me, and then I threw it into the fire,
and this calf came out.'"
25 Now when Moses saw the people were in a frenzy,
for Aaron had let them get completely out of control,
causing derision from their enemies,
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp and said,
"Whoever is on the Lord's side, come to me."
And all the Levites gathered themselves together around him.
27 (Nu 25:5) He said to them, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel,
'Every man fasten his sword on his side,
and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp,
and let every man kill his brother, and every man his friend,
and every man his neighbor.'"
28 (Dt 33:9) The Levites did according to the word of Moses,
and about three thousand men of the people died that day.
29 (Nu 25:11–13; Zec 13:3) For Moses had said,
"Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord,
that He may bestow a blessing on you this day,
for every man opposes his son and his brother."
30 (1Sa 12:20; Nu 25:13) On the next day Moses said to the people,
"You have committed a great sin, and now I will go up to the Lord.
Perhaps I can make atonement for your sin."
31 (Ex 20:23; 32:30) Then Moses returned to the Lord and said,
"Oh, this people has committed a great sin and have made a god
of gold for themselves.
32 (Ps 69:28; Da 12:1) Yet now, if You will, forgive their sin,
but if not, I pray, blot me out of Your book which You have written."
33 (Eze 18:4) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against Me,
I will blot him out of My book.
34 (Ex 23:20; Dt 32:35) So go now, lead the people to the place of which
I have spoken to you. Indeed, My angel will go before you.
Nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will indeed punish them
for their sin."
35 And the Lord plagued the people because they had made the calf,
the one that Aaron made.

2) Our Daily Bread for 9 Feb 2021

entitled Looking Up
Col 3:1-4
COLOSSIANS 3
1 (Ps 110:1; Mk 16:19) If you then were raised with Christ, desire
those things which are above, where Christ sits at the right hand of God.
2 (Mt 16:23) Set your affection on things above, not on things on earth.
3 (Ro 6:2; Col 2:20) For you are dead, and your life is hidden
with Christ in God.
4 (1Jn 3:2; Jn 11:25) When Christ who is our life shall appear,
then you also shall appear with Him in glory.
The cockeyed squid lives in the ocean's "twilight zone" where sunlight
barely filters through the deep waters. The squid's nickname is
a reference to its two extremely different eyes: the left eye develops
over time to become considerably larger than the right—almost twice as big.
Scientists studying the mollusk have deduced that the squid uses
its right eye, the smaller one, to look down into the darker depths.
The larger, left eye, gazes upward, toward the sunlight.
The squid is an unlikely depiction of what it means to live in our present
world and also in the future certainty we await as people who
"have been raised with Christ" (Colossians 3:1). In Paul's letter
to the Colossians, he insists we ought to "set [our] minds on things above"
because our lives are "hidden with Christ in God" (vv. 2–3).
As earth-dwellers awaiting our lives in heaven,
we keep an eye trained on what's happening around
us in our present reality. But just as the squid's
left eye develops over time into one that's larger
and more sensitive to what's happening overhead,
we too can grow in our awareness of the ways God
works in the spiritual realm.
We may not have yet fully grasped what it means to be alive in Jesus,
but as we look "up," our eyes will begin to see it more and more.

Reflect & Pray
How can you develop your "upward" vision?
How can you set your mind on heavenly things?
Loving God, help me to set my mind and heart
on those things that are of You!
3) Daily verses taken from Billy Graham Evangelical Organisation
Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools
Week 1 Knowing God's Word Day 3 - Let the Word Dwell in You
Col 3:16
16 (Eph 5:19; Col 1:28; Ro 10:17) Let the word of Christ dwell
in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing
one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Every day, whether we are aware of it or not, our minds are
bombarded by 20th Century values: "Dress for success!" "Get ahead!"
"You deserve a break today ...." Television, radio, and the incessant
voices that surround us distract our attention and keep us from
focusing on what is really important in our lives.
Paul's instruction to the Colossian Church brings us back to God's
value system: "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly."
When we give attention to the Word of God, we put ourselves in a position
to hear a higher truth the clamour of immediate demands
and the expectations of the world around us. We can experience peace
in the midst of struggle and rest in a restless environment.
God's Word is a powerful force for good in our lives - not merely
an attractive philosophy, but true power to overcome the pressures
of daily life.
Dweliing on the Word of God, and letting it indwell us, takes many forms.
Scripture memory, music, meditation, talking with others about the
goodness of God all help us keep our attention focused on Christ rather
than on the values of the world around us.
We can choose to listen to Christian radio or tapes. We can take time
daily for quiet meditation on his Word. We can commit the Word to memory
and draw on its power during the day. And as we listen to the voice
of the Spirit rather than the noise around us, we can enter into
his peace and live in communion with him.
Application
a) What pressures do I face that tend to distract me from the reality
of Chirst's presence?
b) How can I "let the word of Christ dwell richly" in me, so that I
can regain my focus on him?
c) What practical changes can I make in my life to help me focus
my attention on Jesus and his word?
4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland
2 Chr 31:21
21 And in every deed that he undertook in the service of the house
of God and with the law and commandment to seek out his God,
he did this with all his heart, and he found success.
5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:
God's Protection in Times of Trouble
Ps 27:1-6
PSALMS 27
A Psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my light and my salvation;
whom will I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life;
of whom will I be afraid?
2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) When the wicked came against me
to eat my flesh—
my enemies and my foes—
they stumbled and fell.
3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) Though an army should encamp against me,
my heart will not fear;
though war should rise against me,
in this will I be confident.
4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) One thing I have asked from the Lord,
that will I seek after—
for me to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to see the beauty of the Lord,
and to inquire in His temple.
5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) For in the time of trouble
He will hide me in His pavilion;
in the shelter of His tabernacle He will hide me;
He will set me up on a rock.
6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9) Now my head will be lifted up
above my enemies encircling me;
therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
Remember God's promises when You pray
The Lord's prayer
Matthew 6:9-13
9 "Therefore pray in this manner:
Our Father who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your name.
10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;
Your will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.
12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."
6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)
Alberta
Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta
Alberta 2015 population 4121700
est Muslim Population 195240
CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton
It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .
Alberta maoy have a total as hihg as 195240 today.
Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's
become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.
Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the legrest group
coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries
such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.
Muslims are coming to faith in JEsus! They overcome huge spiritual,
emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still
continue, especially in growing in discpleship. They often fell lost in our
Western congreations, and euqally lost trying to find a church body with whom
they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.
Please join us in praying for:
- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.
- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to
Muslim-background believers.
- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially
in their faith and the Church.
- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their
not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.
- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.
- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim
in these growing Muslim population centres.

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020
Under the Keep Praying page
When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month
and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days
of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that
usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,
of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be
decorated and festivals will be held.
For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the
distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of
Islam.
You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"
Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you
know, and Muslims around the world:
- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions
in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about
unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such
movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three
decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim
relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.
Acts 2:12-17 : 17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,
"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Even on My menservants and maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below:
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]
Footnotes
Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.
- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective
discipleship movements among Muslim people.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for
Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.
Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a
hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the
house."
Ideas for prayer
- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving
Christ among Muslim people -
Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims
throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!
My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .

Exodus 30 - 32
EXODUS 30
The Altar of Incense
Ex 37:25–28
1 (Ex 37:25–28; Rev 8:3) Also, you must make an altar for burning incense.
You must make it of acacia wood.
2 (Ex 27:2) It must be a cubit in length, and its width a cubit.
It will be square. Its height will be two cubits;
(About 11/2 feet long and wide and 3 feet high,
or 45 centimeters long and wide and 90 centimeters high.)
the horns shall be of one piece with it.
3You must overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides all around,
and its horns; and you must make a molding of gold all around it.
4 (Ex 25:27) You must make two golden rings for it under its molding.
You must make them on its two sides, on opposite sides of it,
and they will be holders for the poles with which to carry it.
5 Then you must make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
6 (Ex 25:21–22) You must put it before the veil that is by the ark
of the testimony, in front of the mercy seat that is over the testimony,
where I will meet with you.
7 (1Sa 2:28; Ex 27:20–21) Aaron must burn sweet incense on it.
Every morning, when he trims the lamps, he must burn incense.
8 When Aaron lights the lamps at sundown, he must burn incense on it.
It is to be a perpetual incense before the Lord throughout your generations.
9 (Lev 10:1)You must offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt sacrifice,
nor grain offering, and you must not pour out a drink offering on it.
10 (Lev 16:18; 23:27) Aaron must make atonement on its horns once a year
with the blood of the sin offering of atonement. Once a year he must make
atonement on it throughout your generations. It is most holy to the Lord.
The Atonement Money
11 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 (Nu 31:50; Ex 38:25–26) When you take the census of the children of
Israel according to their number, then each man is to pay a ransom for
his life to the Lord when you count them, so that there be no plague
among them when you number them.
13 (Lev 27:25; Nu 3:47) This is what everyone who is counted must give:
half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary
(About 1/5 ounce, or 5.8 grams; and in v. 15. (a shekel is twenty gerahs).)
The half shekel will be the offering to the Lord.
14 Everyone who is counted, from twenty years old and above,
must give an offering to the Lord.
15 (Pr 22:2; Eph 6:9) The rich must not give more and the poor must not
give less than half a shekel when they give the offering to the Lord,
to make atonement for your lives.
16 (Ex 38:25–31; Nu 16:40) You must take the atonement money of the
children of Israel and give it for the service of the tent of meeting,
so that it may be a memorial to the children of Israel before the Lord,
to make atonement for your lives.
The Bronze Basin
17 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
18 (Ex 38:8; 40:7) You must also make a basin of bronze,
with its base also of bronze, for washing,
and you must put it between the tent of meeting and the altar,
and you must put water in it.
19 (Isa 52:11; Ex 40:31–32) For Aaron and his sons must wash
their hands and their feet from it.
20 When they go into the tent of meeting, or when they come near
the altar to minister by burning incense as an offering made
by fire to the Lord, they must wash with water so that they will not die.
21 (Ex 28:43) So they must wash their hands and their feet,
so that they will not die. And it will be a perpetual statute for them,
even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.
The Anointing Oil
22 Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23 (SS 4:14; Eze 27:19) Take for yourself choice spices: five hundred shekels
(About 12 1/2 pounds, or 5.8 kilograms; and in v. 24. )
of pure myrrh, half as much sweet-smelling cinnamon
(two hundred and fifty shekels About 61/4 pounds, or 2.9 kilograms.),
two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet-smelling cane,
24 (Ex 29:40; Ps 45:8) five hundred shekels of cassia,
according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin
(About 75 pounds, or 34 kilograms.) of olive oil.
25 (Ex 37:29; Nu 35:25; Ps 89:20) And you must make
with it a holy anointing oil, a perfumed compound,
the work of a perfumer. It will be a holy anointing oil.
26 (Nu 7:1) And you must anoint the tent of meeting with it,
along with the ark of the testimony,
27 and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils,
and the altar of incense,
28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils,
and the basin and its stand.
29 (Ex 29:37) You must consecrate them, so that they may be most holy.
Whatever touches them must be holy.
30 (Lev 8:12; 8:30) You must anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate them,
so that they may minister as priests to Me.
31 You must speak to the children of Israel, saying,
"This will be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations.
32 (Ex 30:25) It must not be poured out on anyone's body,
nor shall you make any other like it in composition.
It is holy, and it will be holy to you.
33 (Ex 30:38; Ge 17:14) Whoever makes anything like it
or whoever puts any of it on a layman
will be cut off from his people."
The Incense
34 (Ex 25:6; 37:29) Then the Lord said to Moses:
Take for yourself sweet spices,
stacte and onycha and galbanum,
sweet spices with pure frankincense of equal amounts.
35 (Ex 30:25; Lev 2:13) You shall make of these an incense,
a compound expertly blended, mingled with salt, pure and holy.
36 (Ex 25:22) You must beat some of it very fine and put
part of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting
where I will meet with you. It will be most holy to you.
37 As for the perfume which you will make, you may not
make it for yourselves using the same recipe.
It must be holy for the Lord to you.
38 (Ex 30:33) Whoever makes anything like it in order to use it
as perfume must be cut off from his people.
EXODUS 31
The Tabernacle Artisans
Ex 35:30–35
1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 (Ex 36:1; 35:30) See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri,
the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
3 (1Ki 7:14; Ex 35:31) I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom,
in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of craftsmanship
4 to devise artistic works for work with gold, with silver, and with bronze,
5 and in the cutting of stones for settings, and in carving of wood,
to work in all manner of craftsmanship.
6 (Ex 28:3; 35:10) I, indeed, I have given him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamak,
of the tribe of Dan, and I have given skill to all who are
specially skilled, that they may make everything that I have commanded you:
7 (Ex 36:8–37:9)the tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony,
and the mercy seat that is on it, and all the furniture of the tent,
8 (Ex 37:10–28) the table and its utensils, and the pure lampstand
with all its utensils, and the altar of incense,
9 (Ex 38:1–8) the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils,
and the basin and its stand,
10 the woven garments, the holy garments for Aaron the priest
and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests,
11 (Ex 37:29) the anointing oil and sweet incense for the holy place.
They must make them according to all that I have commanded you.
The Sabbath Law
12 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
13 (Eze 20:12; 20:20) Speak also to the children of Israel, saying,
"You must surely keep My Sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me
and you throughout your generations, that you may know that
I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
14 "You shall keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you.
Everyone who defiles it will surely be put to death.
For whoever does any work on it, that person will be cut
off from among his people.
15 (Ex 16:23; Lev 23:3) Six days may work be done,
but on the seventh is the Sabbath of complete rest,
holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath
day will surely be put to death.
16 Therefore the children of Israel must keep the Sabbath,
to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations,
for a perpetual covenant.
17 (Ge 1:31; Ex 31:13; Ge 2:2–3) It is a sign between Me
and the children of Israel forever, for in six days
the Lord made heaven and earth,
but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed."
18 (Ex 24:12; 32:15–16) When He had made an end of
communing with him on Mount Sinai,
He gave Moses the two tablets of testimony,
tablets of stone, written with the finger of God.
EXODUS 32
The Golden Calf
1 (Ex 24:18; Ac 7:40) Now when the people saw that Moses delayed
coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves
together around Aaron and said to him,
"Come, make us gods which will go before us. As for this Moses,
the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt,
we do not know what has become of him."
2 (Ex 12:35–36; Jdg 8:24–27) Aaron said to them,
"Break off the gold earrings that are in the ears of your wives,
your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me."
3 So all the people broke off the gold earrings that were in their ears
and brought them to Aaron.
4 (Dt 9:16; Ne 9:18) He received them from their hand,
and fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it into a molded calf.
Then they said, "This is your god, O Israel, who brought you up
from the land of Egypt."
5 (2Ki 10:20; Lev 23:2) When Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it.
And Aaron made a proclamation and said, "Tomorrow will be
a feast to the Lord."
6 (1Co 10:7; Nu 25:2) So they rose up early on the next day,
and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings.
And the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
7 (Dt 9:12; Ex 32:11) The Lord spoke to Moses, "Go, and get down,
for your people, whom you brought out of the land of Egypt,
have corrupted themselves.
8 (Ex 20:3–4; 20:23) They have quickly turned aside from the way
which I commanded them. They have made for themselves a molded calf,
and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said,
'This is your god, O Israel, which has brought you up
from the land of Egypt.' "
9 (Ex 33:3; 33:5) Then the Lord said to Moses,
"I have seen this people, and certainly, it is a stiff-necked people.
10 (Dt 9:14; Nu 14:12; Dt 9:19) Now therefore let Me alone,
so that My wrath may burn against them and I may destroy them.
And I will make of you a great nation.â€
11 (Dt 9:18–20; 9:26–29) But Moses sought the favour of the Lord his God,
and said, "Lord, why does Your wrath burn against Your people,
whom You have brought forth from the land of Egypt with great power
and with a mighty hand?
12 (Nu 14:13–16; Dt 9:28) Why should the Egyptians speak, saying,
'With evil intent He brought them out, to kill them in the mountains
and to destroy them from the face of the earth'?
Turn from Your fierce wrath and relent of this harm against Your people.
13 (Ge 12:7; 22:16) Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants,
to whom You swore by Yourself, and said to them, 'I will multiply
your descendants as the stars of the heavens, and all this land that
I have spoken of will I give to your descendants,
and they will inherit it forever.'"
14 (Ps 106:45; 2Sa 24:16) Then the Lord relented of the harm
which He said He would do to His people.
15 (Dt 9:15) Moses turned and went down from the mountain
with the two tablets of testimony in his hand.
The tablets were written on both their sides.
They were written on one side and on the other.
16 (Ex 31:18)bThe tablets were God's work,
and the writing was God's writing, engraved on the tablets.
17 (Ex 17:9; 24:13) When Joshua heard the noise of the people
as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is a sound of war in the camp."
18But he said:
"It is not the sound of those who shout for victory,
nor is it the sound of those who cry because of being overcome,
but I hear the sound of singing."
19 (Dt 9:16–17) As soon as he came near the camp,
he saw the calf and the dancing, and Moses' anger burned,
so he threw the tablets from his hands
and shattered them at the bottom of the mountain.
20 (Dt 9:21) Then he took the calf which they had made
and burned it in the fire, ground it to powder,
and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.
21 (Ge 20:9) Moses said to Aaron, "What did this people do to you,
that you have brought so great a sin upon them?"
22 (Dt 9:24; Ex 14:11) Aaron said, "Do not let the anger of my lord burn.
You know that the people are set on evil.
23 (Ex 32:1–4) For they said to me, 'Make a god for us which will go
before us, for this Moses, the man that brought us up from
the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
24 (Ex 32:4) I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let them break it off.'
So they gave it to me, and then I threw it into the fire,
and this calf came out.'"
25 Now when Moses saw the people were in a frenzy,
for Aaron had let them get completely out of control,
causing derision from their enemies,
26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp and said,
"Whoever is on the Lord's side, come to me."
And all the Levites gathered themselves together around him.
27 (Nu 25:5) He said to them, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel,
'Every man fasten his sword on his side,
and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp,
and let every man kill his brother, and every man his friend,
and every man his neighbor.'"
28 (Dt 33:9) The Levites did according to the word of Moses,
and about three thousand men of the people died that day.
29 (Nu 25:11–13; Zec 13:3) For Moses had said,
"Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord,
that He may bestow a blessing on you this day,
for every man opposes his son and his brother."
30 (1Sa 12:20; Nu 25:13) On the next day Moses said to the people,
"You have committed a great sin, and now I will go up to the Lord.
Perhaps I can make atonement for your sin."
31 (Ex 20:23; 32:30) Then Moses returned to the Lord and said,
"Oh, this people has committed a great sin and have made a god
of gold for themselves.
32 (Ps 69:28; Da 12:1) Yet now, if You will, forgive their sin,
but if not, I pray, blot me out of Your book which You have written."
33 (Eze 18:4) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against Me,
I will blot him out of My book.
34 (Ex 23:20; Dt 32:35) So go now, lead the people to the place of which
I have spoken to you. Indeed, My angel will go before you.
Nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will indeed punish them
for their sin."
35 And the Lord plagued the people because they had made the calf,
the one that Aaron made.

entitled Looking Up
Col 3:1-4
COLOSSIANS 3
1 (Ps 110:1; Mk 16:19) If you then were raised with Christ, desire
those things which are above, where Christ sits at the right hand of God.
2 (Mt 16:23) Set your affection on things above, not on things on earth.
3 (Ro 6:2; Col 2:20) For you are dead, and your life is hidden
with Christ in God.
4 (1Jn 3:2; Jn 11:25) When Christ who is our life shall appear,
then you also shall appear with Him in glory.
The cockeyed squid lives in the ocean's "twilight zone" where sunlight
barely filters through the deep waters. The squid's nickname is
a reference to its two extremely different eyes: the left eye develops
over time to become considerably larger than the right—almost twice as big.
Scientists studying the mollusk have deduced that the squid uses
its right eye, the smaller one, to look down into the darker depths.
The larger, left eye, gazes upward, toward the sunlight.
The squid is an unlikely depiction of what it means to live in our present
world and also in the future certainty we await as people who
"have been raised with Christ" (Colossians 3:1). In Paul's letter
to the Colossians, he insists we ought to "set [our] minds on things above"
because our lives are "hidden with Christ in God" (vv. 2–3).
As earth-dwellers awaiting our lives in heaven,
we keep an eye trained on what's happening around
us in our present reality. But just as the squid's
left eye develops over time into one that's larger
and more sensitive to what's happening overhead,
we too can grow in our awareness of the ways God
works in the spiritual realm.
We may not have yet fully grasped what it means to be alive in Jesus,
but as we look "up," our eyes will begin to see it more and more.

3) Daily verses taken from Billy Graham Evangelical Organisation
Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools
Week 1 Knowing God's Word Day 3 - Let the Word Dwell in You
Col 3:16
16 (Eph 5:19; Col 1:28; Ro 10:17) Let the word of Christ dwell
in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing
one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Every day, whether we are aware of it or not, our minds are
bombarded by 20th Century values: "Dress for success!" "Get ahead!"
"You deserve a break today ...." Television, radio, and the incessant
voices that surround us distract our attention and keep us from
focusing on what is really important in our lives.
Paul's instruction to the Colossian Church brings us back to God's
value system: "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly."
When we give attention to the Word of God, we put ourselves in a position
to hear a higher truth the clamour of immediate demands
and the expectations of the world around us. We can experience peace
in the midst of struggle and rest in a restless environment.
God's Word is a powerful force for good in our lives - not merely
an attractive philosophy, but true power to overcome the pressures
of daily life.
Dweliing on the Word of God, and letting it indwell us, takes many forms.
Scripture memory, music, meditation, talking with others about the
goodness of God all help us keep our attention focused on Christ rather
than on the values of the world around us.
We can choose to listen to Christian radio or tapes. We can take time
daily for quiet meditation on his Word. We can commit the Word to memory
and draw on its power during the day. And as we listen to the voice
of the Spirit rather than the noise around us, we can enter into
his peace and live in communion with him.
Application
a) What pressures do I face that tend to distract me from the reality
of Chirst's presence?
b) How can I "let the word of Christ dwell richly" in me, so that I
can regain my focus on him?
c) What practical changes can I make in my life to help me focus
my attention on Jesus and his word?

Ps 27:1-6
PSALMS 27
A Psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my light and my salvation;
whom will I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life;
of whom will I be afraid?

to eat my flesh—
my enemies and my foes—
they stumbled and fell.

my heart will not fear;
though war should rise against me,
in this will I be confident.
4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) One thing I have asked from the Lord,
that will I seek after—
for me to dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to see the beauty of the Lord,
and to inquire in His temple.
5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) For in the time of trouble
He will hide me in His pavilion;
in the shelter of His tabernacle He will hide me;
He will set me up on a rock.
6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9) Now my head will be lifted up
above my enemies encircling me;
therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.

6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)
Alberta
Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta
Alberta 2015 population 4121700
est Muslim Population 195240
CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton
It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .
Alberta maoy have a total as hihg as 195240 today.
Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's
become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.
Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the legrest group
coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries
such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.
Muslims are coming to faith in JEsus! They overcome huge spiritual,
emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still
continue, especially in growing in discpleship. They often fell lost in our
Western congreations, and euqally lost trying to find a church body with whom
they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.
Please join us in praying for:
- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.
- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to
Muslim-background believers.
- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially
in their faith and the Church.
- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their
not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.
- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.
- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim
in these growing Muslim population centres.

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020
Under the Keep Praying page
When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month
and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days
of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that
usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,
of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be
decorated and festivals will be held.
For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the
distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of
Islam.
You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"
Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you
know, and Muslims around the world:
- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions
in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about
unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such
movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three
decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim
relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.
Acts 2:12-17 : 17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,
"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Even on My menservants and maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below:
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]
Footnotes
Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.
- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective
discipleship movements among Muslim people.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for
Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.
Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a
hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the
house."
Ideas for prayer
- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving
Christ among Muslim people -
Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims
throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!
My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .
