The Peace Offering in the Old Testament points to Jesus Christ in several ways. It through Christ and Christ alone that we may have peace.
We never know what our lives or even a day may bring forth. We only know that we will face many trials in our lifetime. But rest assured, God has a purpose for these trials and temptations. If we will trust in Him, He will give us the victory and show us even greater blessings.
The children of Israel are in Kadesh, the place where they decided that they could not go and possess the land of Canaan. The people are thirsty. The Lord has provided water already out of a rock in Horeb. This is a chapter of trials.
The tongue is an unruly evil. To bridle the tongue is to accomplish a great thing. If only we could only surrender our tongue to glorify God.
We often get caught up in the times in which we live. When this happens, we become victims in our minds and lose our zeal for true service to God. This, in turn, leads to sin and judgment. The Lord will soon return. Are you ready?
