What blessings await you when people hate you and exclude you and mock you and curse you as evil because you follow the Son of Man. 23When that happens, be happy! Yes, leap for joy! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, their ancestors treated the ancient prophets that same way.

Aron will wear this robe whenever he ministers before the Lord, and the bells will tinkle as he goes in and out of the Lord’s presence in the Holy Place. If he wears it, he will not die.

“This is how you will ordain Aaron and his sons to their offices, just as I have commanded you. 

I am the one who brought them out of the land of Egypt so that I could live among them. I am the Lord their God.

“Tell the people of Israel: ‘Be careful to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between me and you from generation to generation. It is given so you may know that I am the Lord, who makes you holy.

You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but the seventh day must be a Sabbath day of complete rest, a holy day dedicated to the Lord. 

Lord God my Father,

Help me to Love those who hate and show your Peace in a delightful way. Help me to follow your plan with discipline and Joy. Place a heart in me to follow your commands freely.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
