And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and
will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee,
that thou bear it not thyself alone. (Numbers 11:17)
Moses was miserable.
He was a man alone among a million men. He was lonely with a desperate
longing in his heart for the wellbeing of his people and friends.
He was a leader with a longing and he was living in troubled times. The
sun was shining in the heavens but his heart was sad on earth.
WHEN WE ARE LOW THE LORD COMES DOWN TO US
I will come down and talk with you.
The steps from heaven are well-worn for the Lord is constantly coming
down to us, as he did for Moses and indeed all believers through the years. He
knows where our feet are placed and he knows the strength of our heart -beat. We
can know his presence with us.
WHEN WE ARE TROUBLED THE LORD TALKS TO US
And talk with you.
That is the continuing promise to the Christian believers of the
Fellowship of Evangelistic Ministries collectively and individually. He will
talk to us, and as we talk to each other the concept and purpose of our work
will be clarified as we then talk to all men.
I have heard some say with furrowed brow and knowing stare, it is not
what you say, it is what you do. That statement needs qualifying for it
certainly matters how we talk and what we say. Those who use the expression
usually have very little to say about anything that matters or helps. We need to
talk to other people as He talks to us.
WHEN WE ARE SEEKING A WAY THE LORD SHOWS US A WAY
They shall bear the burden of the people with you that you bear it not
alone.
The vision and burden on the shoulders of Moses was to be shared with
others.
That was the certain promise of the Lord to Moses.
Help was all around him. The Lord makes change quick and easy.
We believe that 2008 will be a time when our concept for and ministry of
FEM will grow and increase, may the
burden now carried by the few be shared among the many.
“I WILL TALK TO YOU” so you may “TALK TO EACH OTHER.”
