So what stood out to me again was the importance of having a willing heart to give. Moses calls the people together and requires of them, as God instructed, that all those who had WILLING hearts should give towards the effort of constructing the: 11 the tabernacle with its tent, its covering, its clasps, its frames, its crossbars, its posts, and its bases;
12 the ark, with its poles, the atonement lid, and the special curtain that conceals it;
13 the table with its poles and all its vessels, and the Bread of the Presence;
14 the lampstand for the light and its accessories, its lamps, and oil for the light;
15 and the altar of incense with its poles, the anointing oil, and the fragrant incense; the hanging for the door at the entrance of the tabernacle;
16 the altar for the burnt offering with its bronze grating that is on it, its poles, and all its utensils; the large basin and its pedestal;
17 the hangings of the courtyard, its posts and its bases, and the curtain for the gateway to the courtyard;
18 tent pegs for the tabernacle and tent pegs for the courtyard and their ropes;
19 the woven garments for serving in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments for his sons to minister as priests."
That's a long list. But we serve a GREAT God and they knew that and what they needed was provide form amongst what they had
5 'Take an offering for the Lord . Let everyone who has a willing heart bring an offering to the Lord : gold, silver, bronze,
21 Everyone whose heart stirred him to action and everyone whose spirit was willing came and brought the offering for the Lord for the work of the tent of meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments.
22 They came, men and women alike, all who had willing hearts. They brought brooches, earrings, rings and ornaments, all kinds of gold jewelry, and everyone came who waved a wave offering of gold to the Lord .
26 and all the women whose heart stirred them to action and who were skilled spun goats' hair.
29 The Israelites brought a freewill offering to the Lord , every man and woman whose heart was willing to bring materials for all the work that the Lord through Moses had commanded them to do.
It's so important that we not only follow the instructions and tasks God gives us but that we also do it with a WILLING HEART. We owe God everything ! The least we can do us follow His Word willingly. God has already given us what we need, and skilled teachers to help us accomplish our tasks, we but need to willing give towards the cause !
Love y'all - have a great week!
