This morning woke up, have some trouble in mind that i kept thinking.. just before i got pretty upset over it, i prayed and continue my morning devotion.
On Numbers 16-17.. about Korah, Dathan and Abiram, came to Moses and wanted more... They were chosen by God to do the work at the Lord's tabernacle and to stand before the community and minister to them.. but yet, they wanted more....
13 Isn't it enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the desert? And now you also want to lord it over us? 14 Moreover, you haven't brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey or given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you gouge out the eyes of [b] these men? No, we will not come!"
They complaint to Moses.. They now view Egypt as a place where they long to go back.. they forgot how they prayed hard last time to get out from the slavery.. and they forgot to focus on what the Lord is doing... that is.. God promised to bring them to the promised land..overflow with milk and honey...
and what happen?... They perished....
31 As soon as he finished saying all this, the ground under them split apart 32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, with their households and all Korah's men and all their possessions. 33 They went down alive into the grave, with everything they owned; the earth closed over them, and they perished and were gone from the community.
Upon reading this, many times i just felt.. I ve been complaining a lot!
especially on work , relationship, desires of my heart...
why they can get this that?
why some ppl can do this that?..
why?..
and Yes, the message speaks to me.......... Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Lean not on ur own understanding. :) Because HE who has guided you out from somewhere will definitely bring you to a better place.
Israelites complaint cause them to wander in the desert for ~40years....
Beware.. Be Still.... And focus. :)
