AWESOME
Moses and the people were in the desert, but what was he going to
do with them?
They had to be fed, and feeding 2 or 3 million people requires a
lot of food.
According to the Quartermaster General in the Army, it is reported
that Moses would have to have had 1500 tons of food each day. Do
you know that to bring that much food each day, two freight
trains, each at least a mile long, would be required!
Besides you must remember, they were out in the desert, so they
would have to have firewood to use in cooking the food. This would
take 4000 tons of wood and a few more freight trains, each a mile
long, just for one day.
And just think, they were forty years in transit.
And Oh yes! They would have to have water. If they only had enough
to drink and wash a few dishes, it would take 11,000,000 gallons
each day and a freight train with tank cars, 1800 miles long, just
to bring water!
And then another thing!
They had to get across the Red Sea at night. Now, if they went on
a narrow path, double file, the line would be 800 miles long and
would require35 days and nights to get through. So there had to be
a space in the Red Sea, 3 miles wide so that they could walk 5000
abreast to get over in one night.
But then, there is another problem...............each time they
camped at the end of the day, a campground two-thirds the size of
the state of Rhode Island was required, or a total of 750 square
miles long........ think of it! This much space for camping.
Do you think Moses figured all this out before he left Egypt? I
think not!
You see, Moses believed in God. God took care of these things for
him.
Now do you think God has any problem taking care of all your
needs?
I asked the Lord to bless you As I prayed for you today. To guide
you and protect you as you go along your way.... His love is
always with you,His promises are true, And when we give Him all
our cares, You know He will see us through.
Our God is an Awesome God!!
So when the road you're traveling on seems difficult at best, just
remember to pray and God will do the rest.
