“Moshe asked them, You let the women live? Why, these are the ones who-because of Bi’lam’s advice-caused the people of Isra’el to rebel, breaking faith with Adonai in the P’ or incident, so that the plague broke out among Adonai’s community!”
Numbers 31:15-16 CJB
The reality it took God one night to get the Israeli’s out of Egypt, but its taking forty years to get Egypt out of Israel! Remember, these were the woman Bil’am (Balaam) convinced to have sexual relations with Israel! Balaam is gone but these woman were being held on to! The question when we kill sin in our lives do we keep little?
“Just as a dog returns to his vomit, a fool repeats his folly.”
Proverbs 26:11
We too can fall into this trap not removing all our sin, do we keep some to play with or look at. Maybe we hold on to some for a later time! Don’t be like a dog returning to his vomit!
“In the same way, consider yourselves to be dead to sin but alive for God, by your union with Messiah Yeshua.”
Romans 6:11 CJB
Today, don’t hold onto stuff let it go and let your old sinful self just die. Let’s instead embrace our life giving savior Jesus!
Have a blessed day.
