now that you are out of Egypt, walk (mind, body, spirit) towards the promise land!
"stand fast in the liberty where Christ has made you free...and be NOT entangled again in the yoke of bondage". Galatians 5.1
"if you will give earnest heed to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in His sight and give ear to His commandments, i will put NO diseases on you, I am the Lord, I am Your healer...then they came to Elim where there were 12 springs of water and 70 date palms and they camped there beside the water." ex. 15.26-27
after leaving Egypt and all that they "thought" was comfortable to them...their flesh for the "Egypt" was screaming out. they complained and thought they would die for not getting the things of Egypt!!!
i think about my flesh of man...and all that screams out: anger, jealously, lust, pride, selfish ambition, and the list goes on.
after we have fed our flesh so much with the things of this world we crave...our flesh craves...we feel as if we don't feed our flesh we will waste away...die..
"for you have brought us out of Egypt into this wilderness to kill this who assembly with hunger" ex.16.3
BUT....He doesn't leave us stranded, hungry, empty, lost, confused...
He fills us...and fills us to completion...
I've failed to see this throughout my life. i've failed to let the Lord fill me....instead i've let the things of this world fill me and i'm left begging for more, still hungry, still thirsty, still longing...
however, lately...
i've walked upon an oasis...and i have "camped" out to receive only what Jesus can fill.
will you choose to starve?
