Psalm 106

BibleGateway.com -Psalm 106

How could I look down at the seemingly stupid rebellion of the Israelites during the Old Testament? I think things like, man if I lived back then there is no way I would be so dumb. Not so fast.

With mounting unbelief in God's promises I am just as bad as the rebellion at the Red Sea or before they entered into the Promised Land the first time. Here is how (for me personally):
1. I do not trust the Lord when I worry about how to pay all the bills.
2. I rebel when I insist on my notions of doing what is right over what God has put before me.
3. I rebel when I do not get into His Word daily.
4. I bow to idols when I let a TV schedule determine when I will worship.
5. I bow to idols when I let the world define to me what is important in this life.

Lord deal with my unbelief. Thank you for showing me your mercy and love when I deserve to be crushed then zapped off your earth. Praise to the Lord, the Glorious One, your grace is sufficient for me.
