I don't know about you but I sometimes wonder why the Bible goes into such great detail about the way the tabernacle and temple were built. I mean, it's all great and stuff but we don't have the temple any more, it was just a building so why all the info? One of the things that we need to be challenged by is both the investment and the attention to detail that occurred when the temple was built.
If you like to consider your own ministry as a kind of temple, what is your investment? A few hours a week when you are not busy doing something else? A couple of prayers before a meeting or a life immersed in the ministry God has called you to. What about attention to detail? Well, of course, God is who we are focused on but do we consider everything that we do and ask whether it is of God? Whether it is done in the right way? With the right amount of time given? Whether it is still something God wants us to do?
We need to invest in our ministry and we need to pay attention to details.
