Neither Originate Nor Join Rebellion In The House Of God
Sunday 22nd February
Text: Numbers 16:3-9
Key Verse: 2 Timothy 3:7 “Ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.”
How did Korah convince great men of renown to rebel against God? Where were these men of renown with all the miracles of God in Egypt and in the wilderness? Where were these men when the commandment was given, when the mountain was shaken by the voice of God with the smoke and the burning fire? They were there, but these things never sank into their hearts. Brethren, don’t be here in HOREMOW in vain, such that these things happening here never sink into your heart. A duck will swim in the water, but when it comes out of the water, it will shake off the water from the feathers and remain dry. Should you be here as an overseer or leader and be indifferent? If you are given a message to preach on the pulpit, should your heart not be in it? The fear of God is not there because you are still in the flesh. Your eyes have not opened to this glory. People over there are saying, “Wonderful,” but you are in the presence of God, and nothing moves you?
It is shocking how Korah convinced these people. They were not careful to obey scripture’s warning that you should lay hand on no man suddenly. If they were careful as the scripture said we should not easily take sides but check out facts, Korah wouldn’t have succeeded in co-opting the nobles to challenge Moses-a godly man. They complained, “You have gone too far; the Lord is with all His people. Why have you magnified yourself over us?” Moses was so shocked that iniquity was in such a holy place that he fell on his face to the ground. He wondered, “You mean with the presence of God, this type of imagination would still be in the hearts of these people? The pillar of fire leading us in the night; the pillar of cloud leading us in the day, you are still carnal?”
You do not see the presence, choice and grace of God given to us. Watch your steps in HOREMOW so that you don’t step out of God’s great grace.
