3Why is the LORD bringing us into this land to fall by the sword? Our wives and children will become plunder. Would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?” 4So they said to one another, “Let us appoint a leader and return to Egypt.”
“God led Israel through a process intended to change them from a slave-minded people to be a “promised-land” people. Here, they completely revert back to their slave mentality, preferring slavery under cruel, murdering masters than the walk of faith God has for them.” (Guzik)
Slave-minded people
The Israelites rejected their walk in faith!
They preferred the slave-minded people over the promised-land people!
We are also slave-minded people before our faith in Christ!
After accepting Jesus, because of our faith in Him we are set free from the slave-minded people and become family with the Jesus-minded people!
But sadly, the worldly see us a hypocritical-minded people because some of us reject our faith and are still slaves to sin!
Oh you hypocrite!
What type of minded-people do you associate with, are you still a slave-minded person?
Blessings
