SCRIPTURE: Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the Lord’s side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him. Exodus 32:26.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: When you stand for God in your generation, you provoke His attention and intervention.
It has been confirmed that there are human actions that provoke Divine attention. There are things that people do that draw the attention and intervention of God.
It is very important to know these things, and do them in order to draw the attention and intervention of God. This is because Divine intervention is the cure for all struggles in life; Divine intervention is also key to breakthroughs in life.
Now, what are the things we must do to draw God’s attention and intervention?
i). Standing on the Side of God.
This also means standing with and for God.
When you stand for God in your generation, you provoke His attention and intervention. When you stand on the side of God, His attention and intervention become automatic in your life.
Exodus 32:26 says,
Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the Lord’s side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
When Moses made this call, only the Levites responded to him to be on the Lord’s side. And what happened? God distinguished them from the rest of the tribes of Israel.
That singular action of the Levites got God’s attention, and He separated them for Himself. Standing on the side of God draws God Himself to you, to intervene in the situations of your life.
ii). Standing in the defence of God.
Another human action that provokes Divine attention and intervention is standing in the defence of God. When you make yourself a defender of God and His Kingdom, you secure Divine attention.
There was a time when the children of Israel began to commit adultery and idolatry in the wilderness on their way to the Promised Land. The anger of God was kindled against the people. A man provoked God further by bringing a strange midianitish woman into the camp while the people were still mourning the judgement.
A young man called Phinehas went after this adulterous man and killed both him and the woman, (Numbers 25:6-11), and then the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.
Now, because Phinehas did this out of his zealousness for God, God gave him and his seed the covenant of peace and everlasting priesthood (Numbers 25:12).
Beloved, when you stand in defence of God like Phinehas, you provoke God’s attention.
Remember this: When you stand for God in your generation, you provoke His attention and intervention.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Make up your mind to stand with God and in defence of His Cause on earth.
- Go all the way out with God like the Levites, and like Phinehas.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to stand with You and in defence of Your Kingdom on earth. I receive the grace to go all the way with You and for You, Lord in Jesus’ Name.
