Boundaries

Numbers 33:53-34:9         1/6/2018

This is a description of the physical boundaries of the Promised Land.

Moses knew the land well enough to map it. A place where he, himself, would never set foot. A land flowing with milk and honey.

Banishment and Consolation

Banished from a land flowing with milk and honey. No ultimate consolation for all this effort – for all this life lived. But not bitter. Following because not following wasn’t really an option – even though it was a persistent, nagging, choice.

Yet, oddly enough a millennium later, on the mount of transfiguration, there is Moses. Feet firmly set in the land. Fellowshipping with Jesus right there in the place where he never imagined being allowed to set foot.

God’s Plan for You

You really don’t have any idea of the great things God has planned for you.

“But as it is written: ‘What eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and what has not entered the human heart, what God has prepared for those who love him,'” 1 Cor 2:9
