Get On A Schedule – The Saturday Morning Post

Today’s Passage – Numbers 27 – 29 (Click on the references to listen to the audio – Click here to view the passage from Blue Letter Bible)

(Second Milers also read – Romans 9 – 12; Proverbs 25; Psalms 126 – 130

Read the “0225 Evening and Morning“ devotion for today, by the late Charles Haddon Spurgeon.

“And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season. And thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the LORD; two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt offering. The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even…” (Numbers 28:1-4)

“These things ye shall do unto the LORD in your set feasts, beside your vows, and your freewill offerings, for your burnt offerings, and for your meat offerings, and for your drink offerings, and for your peace offerings. And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded Moses.” (Numbers 29:39-40)

Good morning. Between the two passages above, God gives Israel a schedule for their sacrifices, and everything involved. We should be on a schedule too, if we want to get anything accomplished. Our schedule is going to look a little different, depending on our priorities. Our first priority should be God: schedule your Walking With God time. Start with prayer time: praise Him for what He’s done for you; confess what you failed to do; make your requests known (others, you); thank Him for what He is going to do and ask Him to show you something from His Word. That brings us to Bible Reading. Schedule a time to read your Bible daily. Keep a journal of verses or passages the Holy Spirit wants you to focus on as you read.

Secondly, schedule time for your wife and family. Not TV time. Quality time. Take them to the park and throw the Frisbee around for a while. Do something to make good memories. Believe me, the time goes too quick.

Thirdly. Everything else comes third. Work, church, soul winning, sleep, hobbies, etc. When you put God first, everything will fall into place.

“Let all things be done decently and in order.” (1Corinthians 14:40)

Peace.

First walk with god praise him every day thank him from your heart. God will help you to listen learn focus on the lord and what the lord has done for you. And ask the lord what can you do for him. Whether its serving the lord giving your time to help others in need. Helping out with neighbors children offer them a day out or a night out. By honoring god. God has done so much for us. God wants us to take a challenge. And that challenge could be anything. So what can you do to complete the process. And what does it take to do that. From my point of view god has already shown us.wgats important taking time for church listening to the passages. Singing in the choir getting along with other members of your church. Plan a day to help other members of the church to watch their child. So they can have their time. Because children are important we are gods children. We need to watch god open that door for us. Because God wants us to be the best we can be. And never give up. And love the lord. And thank him for waking you up every day. Its called helping others so you can serve the lord with your heart. And be the better person to follow the lord in his footsteps.
