1 Samuel 6:8
Take the ark of the Lord and put it on the cart, and in a chest beside it put the gold objects you are sending back to him as a guilt offering. Send it on its way,
Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Tue, June 8, GOLD (I Sam. 6:8). The Phillistines could not hold anymore toward the ark. They could not stand toward the punishments God sent them. Finally, they returned the ark to The Israelites. But before they returned it, they asked to the diviners what should they do? The diviners agreed to return the ark but:
a. Return the ark safely.
Unharmed, unbroken, untouched.
b. Gave gifts.
They also gave gifts, that is 5 golden tumors and 5 golden rats according to the number of the Phillistines leaders.
c. Sent it all personally.
They didn’t only sent the ark. They also sent the gifts and they brought them on 2 cows until they reached Beth Semesh and watched the sacrifice as a guilt offering. To make mistakes are easy. To mend the mistakes are difficult. Therefore, we have to reduce mistakes in our life. ASH.
