Daily Devotional with Pastor Jon

To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
Psalm 95:7 (b)-9

The reference here is to Meribah (Exodus 17). After the Lord had set His people free from their bondage in Egypt, after He had parted the Red Sea for them, they found themselves hot and thirsty. They could have trusted God. Instead, they murmured and complained. The result was hardened hearts.

So too, at any given moment, I’m either going to be worshipping or murmuring. Thanksgiving leads to grace and glory. Murmuring, on the other hand, leads to discouragement and depression. Murmuring will take us down faster than anything else. When do we murmur? More often than not, as with the children of Israel, it’s when we’re going through a dry spell. And when we’re dry, we’re vulnerable to complaining. “Don’t let that happen,” the psalmist says.

The Israelites had seen God’s work. So have we. We have seen Him save us from hell, take up residence in our hearts, adopt us as sons, and plant us in His Kingdom. Therefore, regardless of how dry the day might be, we have more than enough reason to rejoice and worship Him enthusiastically.
