09/10/20 THE GREATNESS OF OUR GOD #2 — God had used Moses mightily to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt and towards the Promised Land. But Moses had failed to honor God as he STRUCK the rock instead of SPEAKING to it and personally took credit for the miracle (Num.20:10-11). So God declared that neither Moses nor his brother Aaron would enter the Promised Land.
In Deuteronomy 3:24 (CSB) Moses begs God to change His mind one final time, “Lord God, You have begun to show Your GREATNESS and Your STRONG HAND to Your servant, for WHAT GOD IS THERE IN HEAVEN OR ON EARTH WHO CAN PERFORM DEEDS AND MIGHTY ACTS LIKE YOURS?” Moses was absolutely right in his description of God’s POWER and GREATNESS, and His Divine Intervention on our behalf.
But God NEVER makes a mistake or has to reconsider. As our population and, especially, many political leaders become more and more anti-God, let’s remember to proclaim God’s GREATNESS, as well as His righteousness, justice, wrath AND forgiveness.
