Just as carrying Child

Fathers play a vital role in a child's life, contributing significantly to their development and well-being. Emotional, social, cognitive, exploration support, physical activities, promoting values, teaching beliefs, helping to build self-esteem and resilience are the some of areas where Father plays an important role.

When I compared this Father-Child relationship with The Lord-Moses partnership, it marvels me to check how deep the God is thinking about us and working for us, for greater good. Amen.

Wilderness journey from Egypt to Cannon is an unique, one of kind and organised by the Lord out of the Covenant made between God and forefathers.

Deuteronomy 1:31 CEVUK- [31] And you know that the LORD has taken care of us the whole time we've been in the desert, just as you might carry one of your children.

Why God is ready to carry us?

• Because of the covenant that He made with Abraham (Abram) which served as a foundation for God's relationship with the Israelites and provided the framework for His guidance and protection.
• God chose them first and showed His mercies and His Love. While the Israelites often faltered in their faith and obedience, God remained faithful to His promises. Their faith, however imperfect, played a role in God's decision to continue guiding and supporting them.

How did He carry will amaze and encourage us to remain faithful by His Grace.

• Introduction and protection from 10 devastating plagues, each designed to demonstrate His power and pressure Pharaoh to release the Israelites.
• God guided the Israelites through the complexities of their escape, instructing Moses and preparing them for the journey ahead. He provided them with the necessary resources and support to navigate the challenges they faced.
• Calling Moses to gather Israelites, preparing for Exodus, Equipping them for Wilderness journey, Helping to overcome challenges on the way,  listening to the intercession of Moses for not to destroy them, Providing food, water, meat, favour, protection and Success. The big list of stayovers mentioned in Numbers 33. Final reminders through Moses in Deuteronomy and arranging the transition to Joshua are the incidents emphasising His care for generations to come.
• Pillar of Cloud and Fire conditioned the desert for them and acted  as a constant guide, leading them by day and night. Their clothes did not wear out, and their feet did not swell during the 40 years of wandering.

The Israelites' journey through the wilderness serves as a powerful illustration of God's paternal love. Like a devoted father who tirelessly meets his children's needs, God provided for the Israelites in every conceivable way, showcasing the profound depth of His care and commitment.

Hence Apostle encouraged us, For we did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but we received the Spirit of adoption to sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”

Peace be upon The State of Israel and Us.🙏
Shalom. 🙏🙏
Have a Good weekend too.
In His Grip...🙏🙏🙏
