TOO MUCH TIME RESULTED IN IDOLATRY AT SINAI

With the whole nation, spiritual Israel suddenly found plenty of time on hand, in fact too much. Here is a solemn lesson and a dire warning from the example of ancient Israel as to what they did when Moses and Joshua went up to Mt. Sinai to receive the Law from God:

“While Moses was absent, it was a time of WAITING and SUSPENSE to Israel. The people KNEW that he had ascended the mount with Joshua, and had entered the cloud of thick darkness. which could be seen in the plain below, resting in the mountain peak, illuminated from time to time with the lightning of the divine presence.”

MEEKLY WAIT AND MURMUR NOT

May 4, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

MEEKLY WAIT AND MURMUR NOT

“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.” Isa. 40:31, KJV (See verses 26-31).

The reason why our failing strength is not renewed or replenished is because we don’t wait upon the Lord, and therefore we do not have the “patience of the saints” who truly wait with long endurance. As Jesus Himself said, “He that endureth to the end the same shall be saved.” (Look that up in your Bible).
