02/25/2025 – Day 240 – Numbers 9 – 20
“And the LORD said to Moses, ‘Has the Lord’s arm been shortened? Now you shall see whether what I say will happen to you or not.” (Numbers 9:23)
Here is John Gill’s commentary on this verse, which we all connect with the LORDS response to Aaron’s and Miriam’s dissension over Moses’ authority:

Key note – The LORD did not upbraid Moses for his sin of unbelief.
Now, read again the LORD’s response to Aaron and Miriam: Numbers 12: 6 – 8.
Here is the commentary from “The Evidence Bible NKJV”:
“12:7. God Himself said that Moses was His ‘faithful servant.’ What an unspeakable high honor — to be called a faithful servant. These are the words that we should all live to hear on the day we stand before the LORD: “Well done, good and faithful servant’. (Matthew 25:23).
Soli Deo Gloria!
