Little Warriors, Who Are You?

Book of Redemption 17:8-9

And it came to pass, that on the morrow Moses went into the tabernacle of witness;

Remember that time when God had to tell Aaron to put his clothes on in the house of God and wash himself. How dare the Lord tell the priest of God how to act. Yet these verses give heed to some disorder in the house of the Lord. Indeed, even now it has spread throughout the people. Is that not just how the devil does. Herein we see the visitation by the spirit of uncleanness. It manifested itself in all sorts of foul behaviors and heart attitudes. The main symptoms to be on the lookout for seem to be complaints and a low murmuring noise.

It might seem to you that Aaron should not have been included. If I were the Lord, I would have looked at his appearance once and then dismissed him. But that is not how God does. See, the Lord is by far then interested in the heart of a man than his appearance anyway. It seems the Lords chosen

deliverer from this situation neither looked, sounded, nor smelled like the

other men. Yet God chose to use him all the same in spite of his mess and his brokenness. How many of you know that when God is for you, no one can be against you.

and, behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.

So, Aaron served the Lord faithfully, doing whatever asked, for as long as it took. So also, he trained up his children and those of his house to follow Gods service uprightly as he did himself. Look how the Lord blessed Aarons house for his faithfulness unto him. Here he is commended for his role as a

good servant of God. At no other time do we see the Lord having to address Levis lack of clothing and manner of dress in the tabernacle again.

Here we see how the Lord deals with secret sins that spread throughout the people and secret shame which by ministry becomes a sense of public

responsibility. These verses are important by reason of what is going on even today in certain regions of the world. Hold on a minute. Let us look at who Aaron is before the Lord. Sometimes these secret sins and hidden things can creep in at unexpected times and do much damage. Did not Moses go to the Midianites and his father-in-law alone. When he went there, he had no one but the Lord. It appears he was once raised up in the house of Egypt to

deliver Gods people.

And Moses brought out all the rods from before the Lord unto all the children of Israel: and they looked, and took every man his rod.

Yet when he returned from the desert he came with a priest of God for a brother and a mixed ancestral wife. Somebody look me in the eye and tell me that is not important. Due to his origin and lack of upbringing in Gods house until now, Aaron doubtless knew no better. Some of you might wonder from whence I get my information. Hold that inquiry for a moment. I am getting to a deeper look at the ancestry.com as it were of this chosen deliverer. Know this, my friends. God alone can save. But sometimes he brings his servants along with him, moving them as it were into better positions to do his work.

For so he is God. He does whatever he will with whomever he pleases and none can tell him otherwise. If you have an issue with who he sent, take it up with him rather than with his messenger to prevent rather embarrassing scenes like this from occurring. Indeed, the consequences were far from embarrassing to the muttering people. They came with swift, sudden, and

life-threatening complications. In verse, we see the people complaining of dying before the Lord for seemingly no reason at all.
