After God had wrought a great deliverance among the children of Israel, God attempted to lead them hand to mouth. Thy rejoiced at the onset but when their thoughts gravitate downward they began to buck and rebel. They lost their focus in that God was really God and began to imagine maybe all of this is just a bad idea. Ohh God took them from the captivity and bondage of men, but without complete subjection to God they wound up bound up and a slave to their disobedience that cost them everything. In dangerous circumstances, God delivers, but it’s in our continued subjection in all things to him that we remain a blessed people. Remain in that place that when you petition him on the behalf of others and for your own nations, he rushes to the aid. Can you hear it? God wants to lead us once again hand to mouth.
Deuteronomy 32:11-20
11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
12 So the Lord alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.
13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
14 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.
17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
19 And when the Lord saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.
