Make two trumpets of hammered silver

Numbers 10:1-36

The Lord said to Moses: Make two trumpets of hammered silver, and use them for calling the community together and for having the camps set out. When both are sounded, the whole community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting. If only one is sounded, the leaders—the heads of the clans of Israel—are to assemble before you. When a trumpet blast is sounded, the tribes camping on the east are to set out. At the sounding of a second blast, the camps on the south are to set out. The blast will be the signal for setting out. To gather the assembly, blow the trumpets, but not with the signal for setting out.

The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to blow the trumpets. This is to be a lasting ordinance for you and the generations to come.

you are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, and they will be a memorial for you before your God. I am the Lord your God.

On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle of the covenant law. Then the Israelites set out from the Desert of Sinai and traveled from place to place until the cloud came to rest in the Desert of Paran. They set out, this first time, at the Lord’s command through Moses.

Now Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out for the place about which the Lord said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us and we will treat you well, for the Lord has promised good things to Israel.” 

Whenever the ark set out, Moses said, “Rise up, LordMay your enemies be scattered; may your foes flee before you.”

Whenever it came to rest, he said, “Return, Lordto the countless thousands of Israel.”

Why?
God's people should move in the order of the Lord, and let others know we belong to the Lord.

Moses appreciated his father-in-law helping them in the desert, so Moses asked he go with them.

合一的軍隊,製號:吹單:首領  二次: 南邊起行,小聲:招聚會眾,大聲:打仗,吹號: 獻祭。吹號是神給人,人給神,人給人的信號。現在我們藉著聖靈引導我們。

按著軍隊: 軍旗,首先是猶大,以行軍的規格來行走,雖然沒有打仗,雖然他們沒有受過訓練,神使他們得勝,神教導他們如軍隊行進。

曠野的路很難走,但是神的約櫃走在前面。不要怕,我們有父親帶領!

神在我們面前開路,神也藉著各樣人幫助我們,如摩西的岳父,幫助摩西。

How?

The trumpet today to me is the Holy Spirit and the way of God's word. May my way led by the Lord.
