Craving other things.
Numbers 11:4-6.
"If only we had . . . "
"We remember . . . "
"But now . . . "
Lost my appetite
Never see anything but manna.
Here's the truth . . .
"Never try to live on old manna,
(and never try to replace it for better),
nor seek help in Egypt.
All must come from Jesus or thou are undone." Charles Spurgeon
Old Testament laws. We are no longer under the law. They were looking forward and we no longer look backwards. We are partakers of the Divine Nature. Francis Chan said: "We have obtained equal standing with everyone---like Peter." Given all things that pertain to life and godliness. II Peter 1:3. For that very reason. Give it all up. Make every effort. Knowledge. Self Control. Steadfast. Godliness. Love. "Don't be so nearsighted that you are blind." We have Him here. When Chan spoke tonight about looking at things Unseen. What are we really looking at every day? The warp or the woof? Or the Invincible, Immutable, Incomprehensible God?
Father, it is incomprehensible that we can partake of your Divine Nature. The Israelites looked forward and thought they'd give anything to be at that place. You are Here. Invade my day, this moment, with your Holy Presence.
