Mar 1st The Saturday Morning Post – Thou Hast Lacked Nothing

March 1 Reading – Deuteronomy 1 – 2 (Second Milers read – 1 Corinthians 9 – 12; Proverbs 1; Psalm 1 – 5)

(Deuteronomy 2:1-7) “ Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount Seir many days. (2) And the LORD spake unto me, saying, (3) Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward. (4) And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir; and they shall be afraid of you: take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore: (5) Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession. (6) Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink. (7) For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.”

Good morning, Isn’t it good to know that God knows whatever situation it is that you are walking in, He sees you? He blesses the work of your hands. Did you know that the saddles of all Israel did not ware out in the 40 years they wondered around in the wilderness? God was with them through the forty years. God could see their needs, and made sure that they lacked nothing. Maybe it’s time to take inventory: count our blessings. There are many. Did you notice them all? God is walking right by your side: He knows what you need.

Peace.
