God’s test?
God's test for the
Israelites was to gather only enough manna for each day
as God provided it like
dew from heaven according to His instructions.
And on the sixth day,
they were to gather twice
the amount they gathered
on other days in preparation
(Exodus 16:2-5).
I think this test of God
could not be passed without faith.
The reason is that from
the perspective of the Israelites,
who had eaten their fill
of meat and bread in Egypt,
the idea of going out
every day to gather only the amount of manna
needed for that day, as
God commanded, would have required
not only humility but
also tremendous self-control.
And on the sixth day,
they were supposed to gather twice
the amount they gathered
on other days in preparation,
to honor the Sabbath as
a holy day on the seventh day.
From the perspective of
the Israelites,
who should have gathered
double the amount on the sixth day
to honor the Sabbath on
the seventh day,
they might have been
tempted to gather twice
as much even on the
first to fifth days.
Also, on the seventh
day, they might have been tempted to go out
and gather just as they
did for the previous six days.
What is the test that
God has given us now?
Are we passing through
this test of God with faith?
