Joshua
21 – 24
As I read this reading, I underlined a bunch and enjoyed the
story, but honestly got nothing to say. Chapters 21 and 22 discuss the problems
in the division and some infighting about sacrificing on alters being used
outside the proper place. Chapters 23 and 24 is a history to the people and
Joshua’s last words.
Verse 24:14 I think fits today:
So remember: fear
the Eternal and serve Him sincerely and faithfully. Put away from you any gods
your ancestors served across the Euphrates River or in Egypt, and serve
only Him.
Today we no longer worship gods per se, but
rather we worship stuff and dismiss God. It’s different but the same trap.
Satan has discovered the best way to get people to not worship God is to
distract them. We just had an awesome sermon on comfort, we all pray for it.
The problem is when we get it, we become complacent and stop furthering the
kingdom.
Evil is there and Satan is really active!!
I wish I could say more, but don’t get lost in the rush of emotions expecting
them always to be there and then move to stuff to maintain them. No we need to
focus on God and be happy with what we have. Learn to USE what we have for the
glory of God so we can use what we get tomorrow. It’s really not for US, but
rather a reward to keep up the fight.
The reason I am not connected today in a
string of discussions with atheist on various YouTube channels. My energies
have been used recently discussing evolution with biologists who dismiss God.
Since I have limited background I need to study and understand what I am saying
so not to sound like a fool and hopefully change a heart or two.
Sometimes I just babble and make sense, hope
this does today;-)
