DCLM Daily Manna 22nd July 2021 Today Outline:
In order to avert colossal loss among His people, God often makes a way of escape; and to prevent a conflagration, He causes the rain to dampen the forest and woodland. God will always appoint a deliverer for Israel. Already the outcome of sin and rebellion of Korah, Dathan and Abiram had set the congregation of the children of Israel on edge. Some disenchanted and disgruntled individuals who are carnal aroused the people to murmur and complain openly against Moses and Aaron, accusing them of killing the people of God.
This action kindled the wrath of God upon Israel. No sooner had the protesters gathered to mob Moses and Aaron than the cloud of glory of God appeared with vengeance against them. It was the timely intervention of Aaron as a consecrated and committed high priest who offered acceptable sacrifice on behalf of the rebels that saved the situation. Aaron as a competent frontline priest stood between the living and the dead – interceded until the plague stopped.
DCLM Daily Manna for Thursday 22 July 2021
Today, “The plague is begun,” according to Aaron! Already the world has gone through a pandemic and this simply is the beginning of sorrows. We, like Aaron, must waste no time to rescue the perishing among us – those in our families, neighbourhoods, workplaces and on the streets. We must not relent to occupy fully for the Master like Aaron the high priest did. By so doing, God will deliver them from the wrath to come.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Rescue the perishing and care for the dying.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Chronicles 9-12
