Exposition
And the LORD
spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the
eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation
into the land which I have given them
– Verse 2 of this chapter tells us
that the people of Israel gathered against Moses and Aaron because there was no
water for them to drink. In verse 8,
the Lord instructed Moses to speak to the rock and there would be water for the
people to drink and give to their animals too.
Moses rather than speak struck the rock twice
and water came out. Before striking the rock, he attributed the miracle the
people were about to experience to himself and his brother.
We see how God reacted to the behaviour of
Moses and his brother. Moses in anger had done what he did and said what he
said. His God given assignment was to lead the people into the Promised Land.
After 39 years or so on this assignment, He was told that the people would
enter the land but he wouldn’t be the one leading them into it.
In Numbers
27:12, God told Moses to climb Mount Abarim and have a peep into the Promised
Land. He saw the promise but he did not enter into the promise. This will not
be your story in Jesus name.
Prayer
Help me to deal with every issue in my life that will stop me from
entering into the promise of God. Help me to overcome all such issues speedily
in Jesus name.
Nothing will separate me from the love of God in the mighty name
of Jesus.
I will recognise the promise, I will see the promise and I will
enter and enjoy every promise of God for me in Jesus name.
