Exodus 27-28: Philemon

Good Morning Truth Seekers! The older folk use to sing, " It is another day's journey and I'm glad" I am grateful to God for waking me up this morning, and letting me see another day! I hope you are grateful to God for all that he does! February was a flash! I hope you are enjoying your time with the Lord!

Exodus 27-28 is a continuation of the Lord God instructing the people on how the worship center should be equipped. The altar of burnt offerings was going to be a place of bronze. A place were sacrifices would be made unto the Lord. Even in this it is critical to follow the commands of God for He knows best in all things. There would Aaron the priest would minister in his garments shaped by the Lord to give Him dignity and honor. God does not leave anything to chance. Are you approaching God with honor, and with a sacrifice of your time, talent, or treasure?

Philemon is one chapter about Paul asking Philemon to receive Onesimus back as if he were Paul. Paul speaks of his love and respect for Onesimu and ask his owner to receive him back as a brother in the Lord. Paul is asking him to let by gone be by gone; if he owes you anything or wronged you charge them to Him(Paul.) In other words treat him as you would me regarding these matters. Paul writes with faith that it will be done. I pray that I could receive such a commendation from another as this. I hope that you in your respective place are being useful.
