Numbers 29:12
“ ‘On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, hold a sacred assembly and do no regular work. Celebrate a festival to the Lord for seven days.
Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Thu, March 4, 7 DAYS (Num. 29:12). The command of God is really amazing. We can’t comprehend everything completely. It is really beyond of our imagination. Notice here, God wants them to celebrate the festival for 7 days. Can you imagine how much did it cost?
a. The cost for the offering.
The offering for 7 days required tenth of bulls, rams, lambs, goats and finest flour. It must be very expensive. It was a must. They couldn’t reduce the number of the animal which were going to be sacrifice.
b. The cost for the celebrating.
They had to wake up early, prepare things, build things, cook things, clean things, repair things. So busy. So draining the energy.
c. The cost for the gathering.
They couldn’t do their regular work at that time. They had to focus on the festivals. They had to use all the time for making sure the festivals succesful. The Israelites still doing it till today. What about us? ASH.
