Old Testament Application #1

Numbers 11:1-2
      "¹ Now the people complained about their hardships in the hearing of the LORD, and when he heard them his anger was aroused. Then fire from the LORD burned among them and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp. ² When the people cried out to Moses, he prayed to the LORD and the fire died down."

 The people of isreal complained of their hardships. It said that they did this is the hearing of the Lord.
God had promised to dwell among them and so all that they did was apparent to him. When they sinned, when they complained, when they rejoiced, was always known by Him. Sometimes they lost sight of that.

How much more should we be aware of our attitudes towards God when He promises to dwell in us?

So the Lord became angry and burned the outskirts of the camp. The way they were saved was by Moses coming to the Lord in prayer.
When I mess up and don't have my heart in the right place, I, too, need to come to the Lord in prayer.
