3) Daily verses taken from Billy Graham Evangelical Organisation



Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools



Week 6 Showing Grace to Others - Day 2 - The key to the Prison Cell



Matt 6:14-15



14 For if you forgive men for their sins, your heavenly Father will

also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men for their sins,

neither will your Father forgive your sins.



14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will

also forgive you: 15 but if ye forgive not men their trespasses,

neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.



Ann had been badly wounded in a relationship that had ended in anger

and accusation. For more than a year, Ann nursed her bitterness, rallying

support for her attitudes from friends and colleagues. Any time she saw

her former friend, Ann put up an icy wall of hostility. She thought she was

"getting over" the hurt, but the very mention of her friend's name brought

back a flood of negative feelings. Ann was trapped, locked in a prison of

unforgiveness , a jail built block by block by her own unwillingness to

forgive. Ann didn't "get over it"; instead, her wounds festered

and her bitterness grew worse.

Then one day - she never knew how - Ann let go of her bitterness. The barriers

of hostility and anger melted away, and when she saw her friend again, she was

able to forgive. And Ann was finally able to turn to the Lord for her own

healing and forgiveness.

"If you do not forgive," Jesus says - and the statement falls hard on

unforgiving hearts, "Neither will you be forgiven." In one sense, God's

forgiveness is unconditional - we do not have to earn or deserve it, and it is

always available to us. But we cannot experience the forgiveness God has

extended to us when we harbour unforgiveness towards others and build walls

of bitterness in our hearts.

When we refuse forgiveness toward those who have hurt or betrayed us, we do

not keep them in bondage, but ourselves. We lock ourselves away for an

awareness of God's loving presence; we imprison ourselves in a cell of

revenge. But when we reach out to forgive, we turn in the lock;

the door is open for our own sins to be forgiven and our own hearts

cleansed and purified.



Application



a) Why is forgiving others a condition for experiencing forgiveness

in my own life?



b) How can these verses have a practical effect upon my willingness

to forgive others?



4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



Luke 16:10-12



10 (Mt 25:21; Lk 19:17) "He who is faithful in what is least is faithful

also in much. And he who is dishonest in the least is dishonest also

in much.

11 So if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth,

who will commit to your trust the true riches?

12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another man's,

who will give you that which is your own?"



10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much:

and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon,

who will commit to your trust the true riches?

12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's,

who shall give you that which is your own?



5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:



God's Reconciling Peace



Col 3:12-17



12 (Eph 4:2; Lk 1:78) So embrace, as the elect of God, holy and beloved,

a spirit of mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, and longsuffering.

13 (Eph 4:32; Mk 11:25; Eph 4:2) Bear with one another

and forgive one another. If anyone has a quarrel against anyone,

even as Christ forgave you, so you must do.

14 (Eph 4:3; 1Co 13:1-13) And above all these things, embrace love,

which is the bond of perfection.

15 (Jn 14:27; Eph 5:20) Let the peace of God,

to which also you are called in one body,

rule in your hearts. And be thankful.

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.

17 (1Co 10:31; Eph 5:20 ) And whatever you do in word or deed,

do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,

giving thanks to God the Father through Him.



12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies,

kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

13 forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have

a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

14 And above all these things put on charity,

which is the bond of perfectness.

15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye

are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

16 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.

17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,

giving thanks to God and the Father by him.



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 may have a total as high 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 largest 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 discipleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congregations, and equally 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 32

[1] And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the

mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto

him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the

man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become

of him.

[2] And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in

the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them

unto me.

[3] And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their

ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

[4] And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving

tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods,

O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

[5] And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made

proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.

[6] And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and

brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and

rose up to play.

[7] And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which

thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:

[8] They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them:

they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have

sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have

brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

[9] And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it

is a stiffnecked people:

[10] Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and

that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.

[11] And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath

wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of

Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?

[12] Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he

bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the

face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil

against thy people.

[13] Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest

by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the

stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto

your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.

[14] And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his

people.

[15] And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of

the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides;

on the one side and on the other were they written.

[16] And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of

God, graven upon the tables.

[17] And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said

unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.

[18] And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery,

neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise

of them that sing do I hear.

[19] And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw

the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the

tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.

[20] And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and

ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of

Israel drink of it.

[21] And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou

hast brought so great a sin upon them?

[22] And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the

people, that they are set on mischief.

[23] For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as

for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot

not what is become of him.

[24] And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off.

So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this

calf.

[25] And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them

naked unto their shame among their enemies:)

[26] Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the

LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered

themselves together unto him.

[27] And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man

his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the

camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every

man his neighbour.

[28] And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there

fell of the people that day about three thousand men.

[29] For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, even

every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a

blessing this day.

[30] And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye

have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I

shall make an atonement for your sin.

[31] And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned

a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.

[32] Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray

thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.

[33] And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him

will I blot out of my book.

[34] Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken

unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day

when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.

[35] And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which

Aaron made.

2) Our Daily Bread for 9 February 2026 titled

How the Proud Fall by Winn Collier



Proverbs 18:1-12



1 (Jude 1:19) He who separates himself seeks his own desire;

he seeks and quarrels against all wisdom.

2 A fool has no delight in understanding,

but in expressing his own heart.

3 When the wicked comes, then comes also contempt,

and with dishonor reproach.

4 (Pr 20:5) The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters,

and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

5 (Lev 19:15; Pr 24:23) It is not good to favor the wicked,

or to turn aside the righteous in judgment.

6 A fool's lips enter into contention,

and his mouth calls for flogging.

7 (Pr 10:14; 12:13) A fool's mouth is his destruction,

and his lips are the snare of his soul.

8 (Pr 16:28) The words of a talebearer are as wounds,

and they go down into the innermost parts of the body.

9 (Pr 28:24; 10:4) He also who is slothful in his work

is brother to him who is a great waster.

10 (2Sa 22:3; Ps 18:2) The name of the Lord is a strong tower;

the righteous run into it and are safe.

11 (Pr 10:15) The rich man's wealth is his strong city,

and as a high wall in his own conceit.

12 (Pr 11:2; 15:33) Before destruction the heart of man is haughty,

and before honor is humility.



1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh

And intermeddleth with all wisdom.

2 A fool hath no delight in understanding,

But that his heart may discover itself.

3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt,

And with ignominy reproach.

4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters,

And the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked,

To overthrow the righteous in judgment.

6 A fool's lips enter into contention,

And his mouth calleth for strokes.

7 A fool's mouth is his destruction,

And his lips are the snare of his soul.

8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds,

And they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

9 He also that is slothful in his work

Is brother to him that is a great waster.

10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower:

The righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city,

And as an high wall in his own conceit.

12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty,

And before honour is humility.



John Taylor was a British eye surgeon in the 1700s who, driven by arrogance,

fabricated a prestigious reputation. He pursued celebrities and became the

personal eye doctor for King George II. Taylor traveled the country performing

medical shows that promised miracle cures, often escaping towns under the

cover of night carrying bags overflowing with villagers' cash. However,

records suggest Taylor was a charlatan and likely blinded hundreds

of patients. History remembers him not as a medical luminary but as the man

who destroyed the eyesight of two of the century's

greatest composers: Bach and Händel.



Taylor craved reputation and acclaim, but his legacy declares his lies, and

the embarrassment and hurt he caused. Proverbs explains how egotistical

addictions lead to devastation. "Before destruction," we read, "the heart of

man is haughty" (18:12). Taylor's disgrace warns us of how arrogance can

ruin our lives, but one's foolishness often harms others too (vv. 6-7).

The "downfall" is great indeed.



While a proud heart destroys us and others, a humble heart leads toward a life

of meaning and joy. "before honour is humility" the proverb says (v. 12).

If we selfishly pursue only self-interests (v. 1), we'll never find what we

crave. If we yield our heart to God and serve others,

however, we honour Him and reflect His goodness.



Reflect & Pray



How have you seen pride lead to a downfall?

How have you seen humility lead to honor?



Dear God, please give me a humble heart

and help me reject a haughty, arrogant spirit.



Sin keeps us from being in union with Christ.

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.



[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[2] See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of

the tribe of Judah:

[3] And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in

understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

[4] To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

[5] And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work

in all manner of workmanship.

[6] And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of

the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put

wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee;

[7] The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and

the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,

[8] And the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his

furniture, and the altar of incense,

[9] And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver

and his foot,

[10] And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest,

and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,

[11] And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according

to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.



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.



[12] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[13] Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths

ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your

generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.

[14] Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one

that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work

therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

[15] Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest,

holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall

surely be put to death.

[16] Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the

sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.

[17] It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six

days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and

was refreshed.

[18] And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him

upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables 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."

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."

18 But 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 neighbour.'"

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.

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 1 1/2 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.



[1] And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt

thou make it.

[2] A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof;

foursquare shall it be: and two cubits shall be the height thereof: the

horns thereof shall be of the same.

[3] And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides

thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a

crown of gold round about.

[4] And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under the crown of it, by the

two corners thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they

shall be for places for the staves to bear it withal.

[5] And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with

gold.

[6] And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the

testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will

meet with thee.

[7] And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he

dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.

[8] And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon

it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.

[9] Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat

offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.

[10] And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year

with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he

make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto 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.



[11] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[12] When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number,

then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when

thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest

them.

[13] This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are

numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is

twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD.

[14] Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years

old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.

[15] The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than

half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an

atonement for your souls.

[16] And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and

shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that

it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an

atonement for your souls.



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.



[17] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[18] Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to

wash withal: and thou shalt put it between the tabernacle of the

congregation and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.

[19] For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat:

[20] When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash

with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to

minister, to burn offering made by fire unto the LORD:

[21] So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and

it shall be a statute for ever to 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 6 1/4 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."



[22] Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

[23] Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred

shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty

shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,

[24] And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary,

and of oil olive an hin:

[25] And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound

after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil.

[26] And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and

the ark of the testimony,

[27] And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels,

and the altar of incense,

[28] And the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and

his foot.

[29] And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever

toucheth them shall be holy.

[30] And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that

they may minister unto me in the priest's office.

[31] And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, This shall be

an holy anointing oil unto me throughout your generations.

[32] Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any

other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy

unto you.

[33] Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon

a stranger, shall even 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.



[34] And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and

onycha, and galbanum; these sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each

shall there be a like weight:

[35] And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the

apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:

[36] And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the

testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with

thee: it shall be unto you most holy.

[37] And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to

yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy

for the LORD.

[38] Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be

cut off from his people.

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 may have a total as high 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 largest 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 discipleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congregations, and equally 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, ...) .

Deuteronomy 15:7-11



7 (Dt 15:9) If there be among you a poor man, one of your brothers within

any of your gates in your land which the Lord your God has given you,

you must not harden your heart or shut your hand from your poor brother.

8 (Mt 5:42; Lk 6:34) But you shall open your hand wide to him and must surely

lend him what is sufficient for his need, in that which he lacks.

9 (Dt 24:15; Mt 20:15; Ex 22:23) Beware lest there be a wicked thought in your

heart, saying, "The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand," and

your eye be evil against your poor brother and you give him nothing,

and he cry out to the Lord against you, and it become sin in you.

10 (Dt 14:29; 24:19) You must surely give to him, and your heart shall

not be grieved when you give to him, because in this thing the Lord

your God will bless you in all your works, and in all that you put

your hand to do.

11 (Mt 26:11; Mk 14:7) For the poor will never cease from being

in the land. Therefore, I command you, saying, "You shall open your hand

wide to your brother, to your poor and needy in your land."



[7] If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of

thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not

harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

[8] But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him

sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth.

[9] Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The

seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against

thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry unto the LORD

against thee, and it be sin unto thee.

[10] Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when

thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall

bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.

[11] For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command

thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor,

and to thy needy, in thy land.



"Why are you crying?" The question was asked by a volunteer for a Christian

relief ministry helping those whose homes had been destroyed by Hurricane

Helene. The woman (who had burst into tears in the previous moment) replied,

"I'm not crying because I lost everything. I'm crying because love

just showed up."



God's heart shows itself in His desire that we help those in need. When Moses

gave the people of Israel God's instructions before they entered the land He'd

promised them, he told them, "Do not be hardhearted or tightfisted" toward

the poor. "Rather, be openhanded and freely lend them whatever they need"

(Deuteronomy 15:7-8). Their hearts toward the poor were to reflect God's own:

"Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart" (15:10).

Whether in disastrous situations or everyday life, when we give to those in

need out of the blessings God has kindly given us, we make evident the love

of His Son, who came "to proclaim good news to the poor" (Luke 4:18). In fact,

God promises He "will bless" those who share His unselfishness with others

(Deuteronomy 15:10), both in this life and the next (see Luke 14:14). We can't

see God yet, but others may catch a glimpse of Him when we emulate His

compassion for them. May His love show up as kindness through us today.



Reflect & Pray



How has God shown you kindness when you were in need?

How might you show Jesus' love to someone in need today?



Merciful, generous Father, please help me

give to others with an open heart, so that they may see Your love in me.

Week 5 Rejoice in Grace - Day 1 Call to the Lord - 2 Samuel 22:3-4



3 (Ge 15:1; Ps 9:9) the God of my strength, in whom I will trust;

my shield and the horn of my salvation,

my fortress and my sanctuary;

my Savior, You save me from violence.

4 (Ps 48:1; 96:4) I call upon the Lord, who is praiseworthy,

and I am saved from my enemies.



3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust:

He is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge,

My saviour; thou savest me from violence.

4 I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised:

So shall I be saved from mine enemies.



In the old Days of Television Western, we could always tell who the enemy was.

The bad guys wore black hats; the evil villain had a scar across

his cheek or a patch over one eye. But real life is

not quite so simple . Enemies come in many forms, and often are not easy to

recognise. Sin is an enemy; even those we love can seek

to undermine our faith;

modern materialism and distorted values lead us away from biblical principles.

These enemies may not seek our death in a physical sense,

but their influence results in spiritual death or, at the very least,

immaturity.

Yet God promises to rescue us from our enemies. David describes the Lord as a

"rock", a "shield", a "stronghold", and a "refuge". God provides a stable

foundation for our faith; he products us from the attacks of the enemy;

he offers a place of rest in battle.

Our battles are usually not physical ones, but rather spiritual

and emotional wars.

We struggle with difficult relationships, the burdens of the past,

the subtle accusations of the devil.

But these enemies can be overcome. David says,

"I call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise" .

When we turn to the Lord, trust his Word, acknowledge his

worthiness, we put our own problems and difficulties in perspective.

We see that God is able to rescue us, and has promised to do so.

And as we respond to his grace by focusing

on him, we abandon trust in ourselves and allow him to do what he promised.



Application



a) What kinds of enemies do I face?



b) How have I tried to deal with those enemies by myself?



c) How can today's verses help me turn to the sources of my rescue?



4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



2 Cor 9:6



6 But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly,

and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.



6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly;

and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.



5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:



When you are Worried Over Money



1 Tim 6:6-10



6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain

that we can carry nothing out.

8 If we have food and clothing, we shall be content with these things.

9 But those who desire

to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and into many foolish

and harmful lusts, which drown men in ruin and destruction.

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil.

While coveting after money, some have strayed from the faith

and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.



6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain

we can carry nothing out.

8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

9 But they that will

be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish

and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil:

which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith,

and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.



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."

[15] And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work;

after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of

of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of

the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod.

breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy

place, for a memorial before the LORD continually.

EXODUS 29



Consecration of the Priests



Lev 8:1-36



1 Now this is the thing that you shall do to them to consecrate them,

to minister as priests to Me:

Take one young bull and two rams without blemish,

2 (Nu 6:15) and unleavened bread, and unleavened cakes mixed with oil,

and unleavened wafers anointed with oil - you shall make them of wheat flour.

3 You shall put them into one basket and bring them in the basket

with the bull and the two rams.

4 (Ex 40:12; Heb 10:22) Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door

of the tent of meeting and wash them with water.

5 You shall take the garments and clothe Aaron with the tunic

and the robe of the ephod and the ephod and the breastplate,

and gird him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod.

6 (Lev 8:9) And you shall put the turban on his head

and put the holy crown on the turban.

7 (Lev 21:10; Nu 35:25) Then shall you take the anointing oil

and pour it on his head and anoint him.

8 (Lev 8:13; Ex 28:40) You shall bring his sons and put tunics on them.

9 (Nu 18:7; Lev 8:22-28) You shall gird them with sashes,

Aaron and his sons, and put the headbands on them,

and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute.

Thus you shall consecrate Aaron and his sons.

10 (Lev 1:4; 8:14) Then you shall bring a bull before the tent of meeting,

and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the bull.

11 You shall kill the bull before the Lord

by the door of the tent of meeting.

12 (Ex 27:2; Lev 8:15) You shall take of the blood of the bull,

and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger,

and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar.

13 (Lev 3:3-4) You shall take all the fat that covers the entrails,

and the lobe that is above the liver, and the two kidneys,

and the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar.

14 (Lev 4:11-12; 4:21) But the flesh of the bull, its skin,

and its dung, you shall burn with fire outside the camp.

It is a sin offering.

15 (Ex 29:19) You shall also take one ram, and Aaron

and his sons shall put their hands on the head of the ram.

16 You shall slay the ram, and you shall take its blood

and sprinkle it around on the altar.

17 Then you shall cut the ram in pieces,

and wash its entrails and its legs,

and put them with its pieces and its head.

18 (Ge 8:21) You shall burn the whole ram

on the altar. It is a burnt offering to the Lord.

It is a soothing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

19 (Ex 29:3) Then you shall take the other ram,

and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands

on the head of the ram.

20 You shall kill the ram and take some of its blood

and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron,

and on the tip of the right ear of his sons,

and on the thumb of their right hand,

and on the great toe of their right foot,

and sprinkle the blood around on the altar.

21 (Ex 29:1; 29:7) You shall take some of the blood

that is on the altar and some of the anointing

oil and sprinkle it on Aaron and on his garments,

and on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him.

So he and his garments shall be consecrated,

along with his sons and his sons' garments with him.

22 (Ex 29:13) Also you shall take the fat and the rump of the ram,

and the fat that covers the entrails and the lobe above the liver,

and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them

and the right shoulder (for it is a ram of consecration),

23 (Ex 29:2-3) and one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread,

and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread

that is before the Lord.

24 (Lev 7:30; 8:27) And you shall put all of these in the hands of Aaron

and in the hands of his sons, and shall wave them for a wave offering

before the Lord.

25 (Lev 8:28; Ex 29:41) Then you shall take them from their hands

and burn them on the altar for a burnt offering, for a soothing aroma

before the Lord. It is an offering made by fire to the Lord.

26 (Lev 8:29) You shall take the breast of Aaron's ram of consecration,

and wave it as a wave offering before the Lord,

and it shall be your portion.

27 (Lev 10:15; Nu 18:11) You shall consecrate the breast of the wave

offering that is waved and the thigh of the priest's portion

that is contributed from the ram of the consecration,

from that which was for Aaron and from that which was for his sons.

28 It shall be for Aaron and his sons by a statute forever,

for it is a contribution.

It shall be a contribution from the children of Israel

from their peace offerings, their contributions to the Lord.

29 (Nu 18:8) The holy garments belonging to Aaron are to belong

to his sons after him, so that they may be anointed in them

and be consecrated in them.

30 (Nu 20:28) The son that is priest in his stead shall put them

on seven days when he comes into the tent of meeting to

minister in the holy place.

31 (Lev 8:31) You shall take the ram of the consecration

and boil its flesh in a holy place.

32 (Mt 12:4) Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram

and the bread that is in the basket by the door of the tent of meeting.

33 (Nu 18:4) They shall eat those things by which the atonement

was made in order to consecrate and sanctify them,

but no one else shall eat them, because they are holy.

34 (Ex 12:10; Lev 8:32) If any of the flesh from the consecrations

or from the bread remain until the morning,

then you shall burn the remainder with fire.

It shall not be eaten, because it is holy.

35 Thus shall you do to Aaron and his sons according to all that

I have commanded you. You shall consecrate them for seven days.

36 (Heb 10:11; Ex 30:26) Every day you must offer a bull as a sin

offering for atonement, and you must cleanse the altar when you

make atonement for it. You must anoint it to consecrate it.

37 (Ex 40:10; Mt 23:19) For seven days you must make atonement

for the altar and consecrate it, and then the altar will be most holy,

and whatever touches the altar will be holy.



[1] And this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them, to

minister unto me in the priest's office: Take one young bullock, and two

rams without blemish,

[2] And unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened tempered with oil, and wafers

unleavened anointed with oil: of wheaten flour shalt thou make them.

[3] And thou shalt put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket,

with the bullock and the two rams.

[4] And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle

of the congregation, and shalt wash them with water.

[5] And thou shalt take the garments, and put upon Aaron the coat, and the

robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the

curious girdle of the ephod:

[6] And thou shalt put the mitre upon his head, and put the holy crown upon

the mitre.

[7] Then shalt thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and

anoint him.

[8] And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them.

[9] And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and put the

bonnets on them: and the priest's office shall be theirs for a perpetual

statute: and thou shalt consecrate Aaron and his sons.

[10] And thou shalt cause a bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of

the congregation: and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head

of the bullock.

[11] And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD, by the door of the

tabernacle of the congregation.

[12] And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock, and put it upon the

horns of the altar with thy finger, and pour all the blood beside the bottom

of the altar.

[13] And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul

that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them,

and burn them upon the altar.

[14] But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou

burn with fire without the camp: it is a sin offering.

[15] Thou shalt also take one ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put their

hands upon the head of the ram.

[16] And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take his blood, and

sprinkle it round about upon the altar.

[17] And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash the inwards of him, and

his legs, and put them unto his pieces, and unto his head.

[18] And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt

offering unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto

the LORD.

[19] And thou shalt take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall put

their hands upon the head of the ram.

[20] Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take of his blood, and put it upon

the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and upon the tip of the right ear of his

sons, and upon the thumb of their right hand, and upon the great toe of

their right foot, and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.

[21] And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the

anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon

his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be

hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.

[22] Also thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the rump, and the fat that

covereth the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and

the fat that is upon them, and the right shoulder; for it is a ram of

consecration:

[23] And one loaf of bread, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out

of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD:

[24] And thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his

sons; and shalt wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.

[25] And thou shalt receive them of their hands, and burn them upon the

altar for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour before the LORD: it is an

offering made by fire unto the LORD.

[26] And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of Aaron's consecration, and

wave it for a wave offering before the LORD: and it shall be thy part.

[27] And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave offering, and the

shoulder of the heave offering, which is waved, and which is heaved up, of

the ram of the consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that

which is for his sons:

[28] And it shall be Aaron's and his sons' by a statute for ever from the

children of Israel: for it is an heave offering: and it shall be an heave

offering from the children of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace

offerings, even their heave offering unto the LORD.

[29] And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons' after him, to be

anointed therein, and to be consecrated in them.

[30] And that son that is priest in his stead shall put them on seven days,

when he cometh into the tabernacle of the congregation to minister in the

holy place.

[31] And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration, and seethe his flesh

in the holy place.

[32] And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread

that is in the basket, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

[33] And they shall eat those things wherewith the atonement was made, to

consecrate and to sanctify them: but a stranger shall not eat thereof,

because they are holy.

[34] And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations, or of the bread, remain

unto the morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire: it shall not

be eaten, because it is holy.

[35] And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron, and to his sons, according to all

things which I have commanded thee: seven days shalt thou consecrate them.

[36] And thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for

atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the altar, when thou hast made an

atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint it, to sanctify it.

[37] Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar, and sanctify it;

and it shall be an altar most holy: whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be

holy.



The Daily Offerings



38 (Nu 28:3-8; 1Ch 16:40) Now this is what you are to offer on the altar:

two one-year-old lambs every day, continually.

39 (Eze 46:13-15; 2Ki 16:15) The one lamb you must offer in the morning,

and the other lamb you must offer at sundown.

40 (Lev 23:13) And with the first lamb will be a tenth of an ephah

(Likely about 3 1/2 pounds, or 1.6 kilograms. ) of flour mingled with

the fourth part of a hin (Likely about 1 quart, or 1 liter. )of beaten oil,

and the fourth part of a hin of wine for a drink offering.

41 The other lamb you must offer at sundown and must offer with

it the same grain offering and the same drink offering as in the morning,

for a soothing aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord.

42 (Ex 25:22) This will be a continual burnt offering throughout

your generations at the door of the tent of meeting before the Lord,

where I will meet with you, to speak to you there.

43 (1Ki 8:11; Ex 40:34) I will meet there with the children of Israel,

and it will be consecrated by My glory.

44 (Lev 21:15; 22:9) I will sanctify the tent of meeting and the altar.

I will also sanctify both Aaron and his sons to minister as priests to Me.

45 (Ex 25:8; Lev 26:12) I will dwell among the children of Israel

and will be their God.

46 (Ex 20:2) Then they will know that I am the Lord their God who brought

them out of the land of Egypt, so that I may dwell among them.

I am the Lord their God.



[38] Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar; two lambs of

the first year day by day continually.

[39] The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning; and the other lamb thou

shalt offer at even:

[40] And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth

part of an hin of beaten oil; and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a

drink offering.

[41] And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and shalt do thereto

according to the meat offering of the morning, and according to the drink

offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the

LORD.

[42] This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at

the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD: where I will

meet you, to speak there unto thee.

[43] And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle

shall be sanctified by my glory.

[44] And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar:

I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the

priest's office.

[45] And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.

[46] And they shall know that I am the LORD their God, that brought them

forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them: I am the LORD

their God.

The Priestly Garments



1 (Nu 18:7; Ex 6:23) And bring near to yourself Aaron, your brother,

The Ephod



Ex 39:2-7



6 They shall make the ephod of gold, of blue,

and of purple, of scarlet,

and fine twined linen,

the work of a skilled workman.

7 It shall have the two shoulder pieces attached

to its two corners, so it shall be joined together.

8 (Ex 28:27-28; 29:5) The skillfully woven waistband

of the ephod, which is on it, shall be of the same workmanship,

of the same material: of gold, of blue and purple,

and scarlet, and fine twisted linen.

9 You shall take two onyx stones and engrave on them the names

of the children of Israel,

10 six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest

on the other stone, according to their birth.

11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet,

you shall engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel.

You shall set them in filigree of gold.

12 (Ex 28:29; Jos 4:7) You shall put the two stones on the shoulders

of the ephod as stones of memorial for the children of Israel,

and Aaron shall bear their names before the Lord on his two shoulders

as a memorial.

13 You shall make filigree settings of gold,

14 and two chains of pure gold. You shall make them of twisted cord

and fasten the braided chains to the filigree settings.



[6] And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of

scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.

[7] It shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof joined at the two edges

thereof; and so it shall be joined together.

[8] And the curious girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the

same, according to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and

scarlet, and fine twined linen.

[9] And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the

children of Israel:

[10] Six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on

the other stone, according to their birth.

[11] With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet,

shalt thou engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel:

thou shalt make them to be set in ouches of gold.

[12] And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for

stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their

names before the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial.

[13] And thou shalt make ouches of gold;

[14] And two chains of pure gold at the ends; of wreathen work shalt thou

make them, and fasten the wreathen chains to the ouches.



The Breastplate



Ex 39:8-21



15 You shall make the breastplate of judgment,

the work of a skillful workman.

You shall make it in the same manner as the ephod.

Of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet,

and of fine twisted linen you shall make it.

16 It is to be square when doubled: a span (About 9 inches,

or 23 centimeters.) in length and a span in width.

17 (Eze 28:13) You shall set in it four rows of stones.

The first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle;

18 the second row an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond;

19 the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

20 and the fourth row a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper.

They shall be set in gold filigree.

21 (Rev 7:4-8; 21:12) The stones shall be according to the names

of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names,

each like the engravings of a signet,

every one according to his name for the twelve tribes.

22 You shall make for the breastplate braided chains of pure gold.

23 You shall make on the breastplate two rings of gold and shall

put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.

24 You shall put the two braided chains of gold on the two rings

which are on the ends of the breastplate.

25 You shall fasten the other two ends of the two braided chains

in the two filigree settings and put them

on the front of the shoulder pieces of the ephod.

26 You shall make two rings of gold and shall put them

on the two ends of the breastplate, on the edge of it

which is toward the inner side of the ephod.

27 You shall make two other rings of gold and shall put them

on the two shoulder pieces of the ephod underneath toward the front,

close to the place where it is joined above the skillfully woven

waistband of the ephod.

28 (Nu 15:38) They shall bind the breastplate by its rings to the rings

of the ephod with a blue cord, so that it may be above the skillfully

woven waistband of the ephod, and so that the breastplate will not

come loose from the ephod.

29 (Ex 28:12; 28:30) Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel

on the breastplate of judgment over his heart when he goes into

the holy place, as a memorial before the Lord continually.

30 (Lev 8:8; Nu 27:21) You shall put the Urim and the Thummim

in the breastplate of judgment, and they shall be over Aaron's heart

when he goes in before the Lord. And Aaron shall bear the judgment

of the children of Israel over his heart before the Lord continually.

Sometimes a bit of wisdom drops in when we least expect it. That happened

recently as I was reading an article about American football player Travis

Kelce. A frustrated coach once told him, "Everybody you meet in this world is

either a fountain or a drain." You can probably figure out which

one Kelce was being!



Perhaps all of us have a bit of both elements in us. But at any given moment,

we're likely behaving one way or the other. And our call to follow Jesus

means becoming more fountain, less drain.



I hear a similar idea in Philippians 2, where Paul challenges us to imitate

Jesus' humility and focus on others. Paul contrasts what drains life from

others with what fills them up: "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain

conceit. Rather, in humility, value others above yourselves, not looking to

your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others" (vv. 3-4).

A bit later in this chapter, he adds bluntly, "Do everything without

grumbling or arguing" (v. 14).



What does it look like to be a drain? Being self-focused and arrogant;

complaining and arguing. And being a fountain? Paul says of Timothy,

"I have no one else like him, who will show genuine concern

for your welfare" (v. 20).



Are we being more like a fountain or a drain?

That's a question worth pondering as we seek to bless others.



Reflect & Pray



What can cause you to be more like a drain than a fountain in your

relationships? How can you be more of a fountain to others?



Dear Father, please help me to be a fountain

of life who pours encouragement and hope into everyone I encounter.

3) Daily verses taken from Billy Graham Evangelical Organisation



Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools



Week 5 Rejoice in Grace - Day 7 Break up Your Fallow Ground



Hosea 10:12



12 Sow to yourselves righteousness, reap mercy,

break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the Lord,

until He comes and rains righteousness upon you.



12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy;

break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD,

till he come and rain righteousness upon you.



When a farmer prepares to plant his crop, a great deal of preparation

is necessary before the seen can be sown. He has to plow up the ground,

turning under the stubble from the previous harvest, harrow the field to

break up the clods, and fertilise- readying the soil for optimum growth.

A fallow field, one that was not planted the previous season, must be

broken and worked so that the seed can find root in the ground.

The Bible likens spiritual growth to raising crops. God is the one

who brings rain and gives growth, but the success or failure

of the seed - both in initial salvation and in ongoing maturity -

is often linked to how well the soil has been prepared.

That preparation isn't always a pleasant or rewarding process.

We may resist the plowing or harrowing that comes through

the Holy Spirit's conviction of sin. We may need to dig up boulders

of bitterness and thistles of anger; we may have to plow under the

stubble of the last crop of lessons, working that mulch deep into our lives.

But the final outcome is worth the effort - even the pain - that

preparation brings. Broken up, harrowed, readied for the seed of God's Word,

we are rich and fertile ground, and the seed of righteousness produces

an abundant crop in us.



Application



a) In what ways have I been "broken up" and "harrowed" by the Holy

Spirit to prepare me for God's work in me?



b) How can I apply these verses to myself? How can I

"sow in righteousness," "reap in mercy," "break up my fallow ground"?



4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



Luke 6:38



38 "Give, and it will be given to you: Good measure, pressed down,

shaken together, and running over will men give unto you.

For with the measure you use, it will be measured unto you."



38 give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down,

and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For

with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.



5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:



When you are Burdened by Doubt



Proverbs 30:5



5 Every word of God is pure;

He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.



5 Every word of God is pure:

He is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.



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."



9 After this manner therefore pray ye:

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. 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 may have a total as high 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 largest 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 discipleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congregations, and equally 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, ...) .

is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according

to the proportion of faith;

7 or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth,

[37] And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the

lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it.

[38] And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure

gold.

[39] Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels.

[40] And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee

in the mount.
