Straight

he must follow these instructions fully.

It will be a Sabbath day of complete rest for you, and you must deny yourselves. 

Lord God my Father,

Give me strength and focus to follow your direction above my sinful desires. Protect me from the deceiver’s desire to distract me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Still

You must distinguish between what is sacred and what is common, between what is ceremonially unclean and what is clean.

For I am the Lord your God. You must consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am holy.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to follow your desire above all else. Help me to allow you to have your way with my thoughts so I may be still enough to hear you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Heart

So the people of Israel followed all of the Lord’s instructions to Moses. 43Then Moses inspected all their work. When he found it had been done just as the Lord had commanded him, he blessed them.

just as the Lord had commanded him.

So they camped or traveled at the Lord’s command, and they did whatever the Lord told them through Moses.

Lord God my Father,

Cause me to follow your instructions without hesitation, keep me from distraction. Help my will to align with yours. Help me to do only what you want from me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Glory

Both men and women came, all whose hearts were willing. They brought to the Lord their offerings of gold—brooches, earrings, rings from their fingers, and necklaces.

The Lord has filled Bezalel with the Spirit of God, giving him great wisdom, ability, and expertise in all kinds of crafts.

Lord God my Father,

Cause me to be willing without condition, for the glory of your kingdom. Help me to use the gifts you have given me, without hesitation to show your desire.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Obvious.

The Lord told Moses, “Quick! Go down the mountain! Your people whom you brought from the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves. 

How quickly they have turned away from the way I commanded them to live! 

Moses saw that Aaron had let the people get completely out of control, much to the amusement of their enemies.

“Today you have ordained yourselves32:29 As in Greek and Latin versions; Hebrew reads Today ordain yourselves. for the service of the Lord, for you obeyed him even though it meant killing your own sons and brothers. Today you have earned a blessing.”

The Lord replied, “I will personally go with you, Moses, and I will give you rest—everything will be fine for you.”

Lord God my Father,

Bring your peace over me and quiet my thoughts. Protect my mind from Satan’s desire to deceive. Allow your Truth to be the only focus I seek and keep me from false worship. When I stray, make me aware and restore me. Be with me in obvious ways today.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Sabbath

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,

Bring me closer to living as you designed it. Cause me to give you a sabbath day each week to be restored.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Action

Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it aloud to the people. Again they all responded, “We will do everything the Lord has commanded. We will obey.”

Lord God my Father,

Help me to have a heart that not only wants to do your will bay actually does it.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Tempered

“for God has come in this way to test you, and so that your fear of him will keep you from sinning!”

Lord God my Father,

Test me as you will and guide me as I need. Keep me from sin and heal my brokenness so I may be stronger than ever before.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
