It is dangerous to rebel and grumble against God

Just don’t rebel against God! Numbers 14:9 MSG

 

Grumbling always to God is a kind of rebel against Him. He is displeased to see you complaining always. In many cases, people who complain often don’t remember to thank God for the good and wonderful things He had done in the past, they tend to focus on what He is yet to do in their lives. A delayed promise that hasn’t happened doesn’t mean God has forgotten His promise, He just needs you to trust Him. The Israelites failed in trusting Him for the promises He made with them; that He will take them to a land flowing with milk and Honey. They grumbled to the extent that they forgot the great and mighty things God did at the Red Sea.

 Numbers 14:11-12 “God said to Moses, “How long will these people treat me like dirt? How long refuse to trust me? And with all these signs I’ve done among them! I’ve had enough—I’m going to hit them with a plague and kill them.” MSG

Because the camp of Israel grumbled and rebelled against God, they suffered in the wilderness and died after 40-years of pain except Joshua and Caleb and their generation were able to witness the promised land.

What is that thing you want from God? If He is yet to do it, stop complaining and keep trusting Him. Have a big belief that He will fulfill what He has promised to do in your life. If you keep complaining, you are extending the time you will receive God’s promise in your life.

Dear reader, I believe you are blessed this morning. Grumbling is dangerous and will not solve anything, it is better to believe and pray than to grumble.

 

Prayer: Father help me never to grumble against you, help me have consistent trust in you in Jesus' Name amen.
