“Go to the ant...”
Proverbs 6.6
In Proverbs 30:25 we read this, “The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat
in the summer;”.
It has been said that there are some 1 quadrillion ants in the world!
Here is what that number would look like:
1,000,000,000,000,000
“According to all that I shew thee after the pattern…”
Exodus 25:9
People will soon be looking at what they want for Christmas. Online, in the shops, the “junk mail” – so many things trying to “show us” what we want. God also has blessings that He is trying to show us… “According to all that I shew thee after the pattern…” and what He shows us is settled in heaven!
Proverbs 28:5
What do we know? And, what do we understand? I was struck by this thought, these questions, recently while thinking about Elisha and the above verse.
First, there were things that Elisha, the man of God, did not know. “And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me. (2 Kings 4:27b)
“. . .for Christ’s sake. . .”
2 Corinthians 12.10
Why do we do what we do?
We should do what we do, and we should live the way we live – for the sake of our Lord Jesus Christ, “for Christ’s sake”.
Whenever I come across this phrase in 2 Corinthians I am amazed and humbled at how the Word of God can direct us.
