God tests His People


Feb 2022- God tests His People to see if we are learning from past experience and growing in Spiritual maturity

(God) saying, “If you will diligently listen and pay attention to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in His sight, and listen to His commandments, and keep [foremost in your thoughts and actively obey] all His precepts and statutes, then I will not put on you any of the diseases which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you.” Exodus 15:26 AMP

Just 33 miles journey from Red Sea, Moses and Israelites faced Marrah, a bitter waters, the people grew discontented, grumbled at Moses saying what are we going to drink? 

Moses Prayed (cried for help), the Lord showed a tree, only a brach thrown into waters, and the waters became sweet.

The moral of the context:

If we Listen, Do and Keep His commandments, Then He is the Lord who heals. The End.

Hallelujah!!!!

Happy February 2022.

The Greek verb for "keep" (tērēsete) is future tense and follows a conditional — love isn't presented as a prerequisite for a transaction ("obey...
