Weekly News Letter Liberty HiU think of Him In terms of thatr own weakness and faihirA What jnaad is to have a Godllka conc^ lion of God. not a manlJka idea of Him. God is tha infinite and tha Eternal One with whom wa have no right to quarrel, and whose deal* tngs with us are too high tor us to fudge (Ps. IMtlA). GM’s covanant with His people was established (▼. 4). Ha had heard their cry (v. 6), and His da-, liverance was sure (t. 6). Iha onb' to wau thing Moses had to do was and sea God work. That word "wait” is a little one. It seems to call (or no effort, to be easy of fuUUlment; yet it seems to be the hardest thhig for a human being to do. Christians who can^ speak and work for God when things' are active and moving become querulous and despondent whan they have to wait or when they are laid aside for a time. Bis promise is sura. That is not Just a religious sentiment. It is a toct, and it is proved by history. * < D. God’s Plan (13:17-19). There was a direct, easy road along the coast of ^ Medlter-, ranean up to Canaan, but God wifii' His pillar of cloud and fire did not lead in that way. . How strange that He should taka them by a longer, more difficult! wayl Not at alL & knew tha dan ger of the easy way. It was there that the warlika Philistines wotdd be lying in ambush. Such inunadi- ate conflict would discourage Israel and tempt them to return to tha flaahpots of Egypt So Ha took them tha other way. Note that God’s guidance tor them one of intalUmt planning, not impulse w oanca. Ha I fust what to do, and Hh did it for ffialr good. God has a plan, not only tor tha nations, but also tor individuals, tor j your life and mine. Let us And HIS| win for us, tor it is good, aocept-j abla and perfect (Rom. 12:1, 2). I Note tha honoring of tha faito of Joseph in God’s promise (v. 19). The' memory of his assurance was a blessing to his descendants, and they honored it and him. What wiU our descendants have to say about our faith in God7 m. God’s Presanea (1S:2(^2). Our God does not just send a plan or program to His people. He is al ways ^th them and is ready to go before them. God’s plap is made known to His people as they follow Him st^ by step. This means that there mum be gxiidance, moment by moment, if ^ plan is to be worked out. Be gives such guidance and it is only wheit.Hls children fail to follow It that the pattern of life becomes confused. j The field of divine guidance is one. In which Christial^l hpva widdy divergent experiences. Some know- the sweet, unconfused daily experl-1 eooe of God’s hand upon them, car ing for even the minor details (or! are they minor?) of life.
