At the Command of the Lord
Whether it was two days, a month, or a year that the cloud remained above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would remain encamped and not journey; but when it was taken up, they would journey. At the command of the LORD they remained encamped, and at the command of the LORD they journeyed; they kept the charge of the LORD, at the command of the LORD by the hand of Moses. Numbers 9:22-23
The Lord led the children of Israel.
He didn’t take them into the wilderness and desert them.
He provided the cloud for guidance.
When the cloud stayed above the tabernacle, they stayed.
When the cloud was taken up, they moved.
At the command of the Lord……..
We too are to move at the command of the Lord in our lives.
We too have direction from the Lord.
The Word of God is a road map and the Holy Spirit our guide.
We wouldn’t travel somewhere unfamiliar without first mapping it out or getting directions.
Why then, do we try to live our life (a journey that is new to us every day) without guidance?
We have not been this way before.
Perhaps it is time to be still for a time and get directions.
At the command of the Lord……..
