A wife honouring her husband and the Church honouring Christ

God's sovereignty and Moses'true humility
God told Moses that he would not allow Moses into the promised land but he would allow him to have a look at it from afar. And then Moses would die. One would have thought that someone like Moses would…

Living for God is not in vain
One would think that when you are in the minority because you strive to fear God and obey his commands, it's in vain. I am so encouraged by what God did for Joshua and Caleb. I have learnt that it doesn't…

Not by might
I am not sure about the results that God wanted from the survey that the Israelites where to make of the promised land. What readily comes to mind is that he may have wanted them to trust him completely.…

Compliment from God
Moses was described as humble in this scripture! Wow, what a priviledge! I wonder what would be said about our lives if the Bible was being rewritten in our present days. Would there be compliments from…

God is good!
God showed so much compassion and commitment to making Israel his own. He did the same thing on Calvary and indeed continues to do so. What manner of love! This reminds me of a song on LIC Choir's album…

A call to service
God called all who were willing to contribute to the organisation of a place for worship. He also commanded all who were skilled to get the work done. I've learned a few lessons from these verses: 1.…

A truly humble leader and intercessor
I don't know if I could have pleaded on the Israelites' behalf as Moses did. These people had really dishonoured God and deserved his wrath. Moses had nothing to lose if they were to be destroyed because…

Through Him were all things made

Keep in step with God and be thankful!
The grand and awesome episode of the 'Red Sea Experience' was over. God had saved the Israelites from the Egyptians with his might and it was now time for them to move on according to his plan. I infer…

Tough Love
God could have taken the Israelites through the short route... But He didn't. I would have wondered at that point whether he was aware that there Red Sea was there if I were an Israelite at that time.…

Convenient Relationships
Job suffered on his own. After the bitter trial when he forgave his '"friends" and God restored his fortunes to him, suddenly other "friends" and "family" came to "comfort" him. How convenient to have…

Permissive vs. Perfect Will of God
Moses gave so many excuses (which we often do) and Scripture says that God's anger burned against him. Eventhough God brought in Aaron to help him, that was not his original plan. We will later see that…

Adam not playing his role
We've always thought that Adam was somewhere else when Eve was tempted by the serpent. But that is not the case. According to Scripture, Adam was by Eve when she ate the fruit and gave some to him to…
