*Topic: Principle of management*
*Text: Numbers 1: 1-46*๐Ÿ“–
*๐Ÿ”‘Key verse:Numbers 1:2*
*"Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel, after their families, by the house of their fathers, with the number of their names, every male by their polls;"*

๐Ÿ‘‰The  country conducted its last population census in 2006 and is already 3years behind schedule because globally every country is expected to hold census every 10 years.

๐Ÿ‘‰So ever since the last census, estimates has been used to update the country's growing population.

๐Ÿ‘‰One may ask of what essence is census held.
Well.........its important to know that the most important resource of any society is human capital.

๐Ÿ‘‰So census taking informs decision making at all levels, be it allocating political power, distribution of federal funds, civil Rights enforcement, businesses application, community planning and so on.

 ๐Ÿ‘‰The Lord spoke to Moses in the New Moon of the 2nd month to hold census, not because He does not know the strength or population of His nation.

๐Ÿ‘‰But because He wanted to engage Moses the leader and His people into taking responsibility to ascertain the military strength of the tribes, and prepare them for the numerous war ahead.

๐Ÿ‘‰This was the reason God demanded that only men from the age of 20 be counted.
Another time He engaged Israel based on their count was during the building of the tabernacle, to task them for contribution towards the tabernacle.

  *Ponder on these...*๐Ÿ™‡‍♀๐Ÿ™‡‍♀
๐Ÿ‘ŒThe Lord  in His wisdom taught Moses how to take  stock of the population he was working with to enhance proper management.
You can also apply this principle as a leader in every area of your life.

๐Ÿ‘ŒKeep record of God's blessings upon your life, as it will enable appreciate God's kindness towards you.

๐Ÿ‘ŒBe responsible, according to the scripture the men from the age of 20 were considered matured and ready to take responsibility.

       *Prayer point...*
Wisdom comes from you alone, teach me to live up to your standard.

Help me o Lord to become a better leader.

And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.* ๐Ÿ‘‰When people interpret the passages of the Bible concerning the judgement of God, they tend to present it in a way to show that God is wicked and unforgiving because of judgements He introduced to enforce sanctity. ๐Ÿ‘‰And then it is the coming of His son that brought mercy, as if God is no longer merciful. But in all our thinking, we must note that man can not be more merciful or righteous than God. ๐Ÿ‘‰People were asked how a nation would be without constitution, and below were their responses: 1. In the absence of a constitution it will be difficult for a country to sustain itself in a long run. 2.Justice will be denied to the people and a chaotic si...

This specific duty on Aaron and his sons is also extended to us in a way. ๐Ÿ”‘The question is, if the command is extended to us, what part do we play? ๐Ÿ‘‰To ensure that the fire upon the altar burns continually God gave the high priesthood tips to follow and extending these responsibility to us, we must endeavor to do the following in conjunction with the Cohen. ๐Ÿ‘‰While the Cohen is instructed to burn incense daily, we are excepted to keep our altar of prayer burning. Pray without ceasing. ...
*KOSHER*๐Ÿง๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿน *Sunday, May 10 2020.* *Topic: Let your land honour God.* *Text: Leviticus 25:1-end*๐Ÿ“– *๐Ÿ”‘Key verse: Leviticus 25:2* *Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.* ๐Ÿ‘‰Oftentimes when God instructs us on a thing to do, they seem difficult at a glance. God spoke to Israel concerning a land they haven't even possessed. Can you imagine? ๐Ÿ‘‰We are familiar with the idea of Sabbaths of days, where the seventh is dedicated to God. But the case of Sabbatical year is not observed today due to some obvious circumstances. ๐Ÿ‘‰Nevertheless, the essence of this command reveals that every thing created by God deserves a rest. And at this rest period, He the creator, restores vital nutrients to the soil depleted by constant use. ๐Ÿ‘‰Now bringing the message home to us............ paraphrasing Leviticus 25:2 would read........... When you get that possession you so much...
