Moses Adjusts Stiff Necks

April 04, 2019

From today’s reading…

So the LORD relented in the punishment

he had threatened to inflict on his people.”

Moses for the win!

In Exodus 32 today we see how angry God was at the actions of the Israelites, who quickly forgot who had delivered them from the hands of the Egyptians.

They were a “stiff-necked people” worshipping idols and turning away from God.

Now was God really going to send a “blaze up against them to consume them” or was He testing Moses?

Maybe a little of both.

Regardless, Moses rose to the occasion as a compassionate, merciful leader. As a shepherd to his lost flock. As a spiritual leader and mediator between the sinful Israelites and God.

Today you have both negative and positive examples of how to lead your life. 

Knowing the difference and acting accordingly is the only way to…

Stay the course.Keep the faith.Endure.
