DCLM Daily Manna 11th January 2022 Tuesday MESSAGE:
John F. Kennedy, a former president of the United States, was quoted to have said,
“The weapons of war must be abolished before they abolish us”. He was assassinated by a gunman with a rifle fitted with a telescope.The use of physical weapons by the unregenerate results in unjustified destruction but divine weapons are designed to accomplish God’s holy purposes.
From our text, Moses set out on his mission as God’s prophet to liberate the Jews from the Egyptian bondage. He was not dressed like a musketeer. Neither did he set up a camp to train an army of liberators; nor was there any need for mercenaries. He went as a family man with his wife and two sons. He only took a rod, rode on an ass, on a journey of faith to confirm the Scripture that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.
God had given Moses all the assurances. With all questions answered and all excuses and doubts removed, Moses was now ready to ride on in the strength of the Lord. At eighty, he had overcome the immaturity and infirmities of his youth. He now knew better. Never would he run ahead of God again. Though he was convinced all along that he was the chosen one to liberate Israel, he had seen the fire of his youthful exuberance ebb out when he made the first attempt to save Israel forty years earlier.
We need not hurry but wait for God, follow His method, use only the weapons He prescribes and the way He directs us. It is then that victory is certain.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God’s weapons always guarantee victory.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 24-25
