Bible Reading Challenge Week 10 Day 2

Our reading challenge for the day is Numbers 28-32. I’ll hit a few highlights. You make comments too and fill in the gaps. What strikes you as specially significant?

Numbers 28-30 - Offerings and vows serve in part to teach God’s people to trust in God. There is nothing that our Lord needs, but he does want us to learn that he is our supply. He gives us grace when we give up our resources to him. He gives us grace to complete the vows we make before him.

Numbers 31-32 - God’s people are to be orderly and to keep their promises. This involves serving the good of the community even when our own good may be compromised. Are we willing to love and serve our neighbor even when it is inconvenient or even painful to us?
