The example from Samuel and Ruth of putting God first in their life! Not fearing man.

And we will prove them herewith, to see if they will do ALL things whatsoever the Lord their God shall command them. Is the Lord our God?

The greater miracles God performs I’m the sight of all Israel because of greater obedience and Israel sanctifying themselves. Pray for miracles as Pres Nelson has told us to do.

What is the definition of prosperity to God? How exactly are we prospered if we are obedient?

Be a do-er not a complainer! No evil speaking of the lords anointed- were all His anointed!! No fear! Faith in gods direction and His power! Act according to His direction to you and expect miracles! Do not go spiritually cold! Do the small and simple things every day!

Aaron and his sons pay the price for their actions. Just as the Israelites do. They are given the opportunity to give a gift- make a sacrifice to the Lord (with a willing heart). They then can return to Gods presence.

What greater light and knowledge, what greater blessings are we keeping ourselves from because we are afraid to go up to the mountain or content to remain where we are?

God gives an invitation for all of Israel to draw near to Him and hear his voice! To be sanctified and become His “peculiar” people. They fear and pull away and choose to let Moses go to God and speak for Him. What a missed opportunity.

Moses hands held up by Aaron and Hur. Lift the hands that hang down- whose hands need your help lifting? When Moses hands were lifted the Israelites prevailed! Much like the prayer circle in the temple. If you only have time for one thing each week- do the temple!

“I have made thee a God”. God has promised to do that for all of us who covenant with him in the temple!
