WORD FROM SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY

Numbers 1:1 (NIV®)

“The LORD spoke to Moses in the tent of meeting in the Desert of Sinai on the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites came out of Egypt.”

REFLECTION

NUMBERS TELLS THE STORY OF THE ISRAELITES’ WILDERNESS YEARS

The Old Testament book of Numbers tells the story of the Israelites’ wilderness years. God recruited Moses to speak and act for Him, but He delivered His people from slavery supernaturally. He used miracles and plagues to get Pharaoh’s attention. He allowed the Hebrews to leave with all the gold and silver of Egypt. He parted a sea and engineered a dramatic escape. Once they were on their way, He told Moses how to organize the people into a society that would honor Him. “The Lord spoke to Moses” is a consistent theme throughout the book. Here they are, on a God-led expedition toward the Promised Land, yet the journey is very difficult. I want to be certain we get that. We can be engaged in a God-initiated, miraculously-supported initiative, and it might still be very hard. Do not allow the difficulty to discourage you or push you off God’s path. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you, and He will strengthen you and show you the way.

THINK ABOUT IT

When discouragement comes, emulate Moses’ pattern, and rehearse all the good things God has done for you. It will change your atmosphere and outlook.

PRAYER

Heavenly Father, forgive me for when I have grumbled about the difficulty of my journey and failed to believe in Your great strength. I repent of stubborn unbelief and choose to follow You with my whole heart! May confidence in You fill my heart. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
