As with the Israelites we are no longer in slavery. Their slavery was to Egypt and ours is to sin. They were freed and we have been freed. They went into the wilderness and we went into life. They had many wants or desires and so do we.

But God brought them out of Egypt and into the wilderness and God brought has brought us out of sin and into life.

They had a difficult time in the wilderness and we have a difficult time in life.

Things haven’t changed much. They did whatever they wanted to and so do we.

But God was watching them then and God is watching us now. So let’s not end up like the Israelites. They wanted to go to the promised land and I want to go to Heaven.
