Deuteronomy 18:1-20:20
Luke 9:28-50
Psalm 73:1-28
Proverbs 12:10
Sovereignty of God
Teaching people about God, setting an example of godly living, caring for the sanctuary and its workers and distributing its offerings. We see in history the Israelites were naturally curious about the occult (hidden) practices and God forbade Israel to have anything to do with it.
Today people are still fascinated by horoscopes, fortune telling, witchcraft and bizarre cults. This interest comes from a desire to know and control the future. Satan is no less dangerous today than he was in Moses time. God tells us all we need to know about and what is going to happen. We need to turn to the word with the trustworthy guidance of the Holy Spirit. There have been events that have happened in the past and events that are happening in present time, today we are faced with covid-19 and it's how we get through this time that will influence those around us.
Let us not be overcome with fear and doubt but be still in the storm and trust in the word, no one can add to Gods perfection he is in control. We see Gods hand in history and we know he is in control today. Worshiping God should be continual and the righteous will endure hardships.
During this time let us love and serve others. How we may help those around us? During this time at home (in Quarantine) let us self-reflect, be still and spend time with God. In Psalm 73:23 "Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand" tells us we are not alone. Let us praise God, Psalm 73:26 "my flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever". May we think of people in our world today where this verse is applicable and pray that those in time of failing health and spirit have God remain the strength of their heart. Let us have a renewed trust in Christ.
