“Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the Lord our maker, for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care. If only you would listen to his voice today! The Lord says, “Don’t harden your hearts as Israel did at Meribah…” Psalms 95:6-8 NLT
Meribah was where the people quarrelled and tested the Lord, they were thirsty and complained to Moses. Despite God’s provision up to that moment they still wouldn’t/couldn’t trust Him. And yet God miraculously gave them water from the rock! As you look back over your life and see how God has brought you this far, what is it that you still find difficult to trust Him with? It’s the thing you’ll be stressing and complaining about right now. Why not choose to worship God instead, to bow down to the One who watches over you and cares so much about you. Why not seek to listen to His voice? It’ll stop you hardening your heart! Lord, forgive me for my lack of trust at times, thank You for Your incredible patience, speak to me today as I turn my heart to You, to hear Your voice, to know Your way, to see Your amazing provision. Thank you for taking such good care of me. Amen 🙏🏼😊
