In
Numbers, we read much of the way of opposition to the Lord and His
Word. It is a way that leads to judgment. There is, however, a better
way. It is the way of ālistening to the Word of Godā (Luke 5:1). Which way are we to choose? ā āCommit your way to the Lordā (Psalm 37:5).
What God did for His people, Israel, was very great. There is a striking contrast between their slavery in Egypt and their abundance in the promised land. God had multiplied His blessing upon them, just as Jesus did when He turned water into wine (John 2:1-11). If the blessing is to be maintained and increased, we must honour the Lord. We must cry to Him for blessing: "Hear my prayer, O God, listen to the words of my mouth." We must call upon Him with faith: "Surely God is my help; the Lord is the One who sustains me" (Psalm 54:2,4).
