Mountain Top Experiences - Part IV



Mountain
     Top
      Experiences

          Matthew 4:1-11




     We have been on Mt. Ararat - new beginning, at the "rock" at Horeb - refreshing ourselves, atop Mt. Nebo - renewing our vision, and today Bashan - an high hill.

     In Psalm 68:13-16..."Though ye have lien among the pots...", speaks of the children of Israel's captivity in Egypt.  While there their lives were hard with labor building for the people of Egypt ( a type of the world ).  Serving the lost because of their rebellious attitude toward Jehovah God.  They had "lien" among the pots ( the lost and wicked of Egypt ), yet now God in His grace and mercy promises them..."yet shall ( soon ) ye be as the wings of a dove ( white, clean, pure ), covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.  My friend, maybe you have been down in Egypt..."lien" amongst the pots of despair, without direction...but just hold on, God has a plan of deliverance, He will clean you up and bring you out.

     Verse 15 speaks of an high hill ( Bashan ) and it is as the hill of God where He desires to dwell for ever.  So we see not only is Bashan an high hill, but a ( set place )..."the LORD will dwell in it for ever.  Today my friend, God wants to take you out of you lost position..."lien among the pots" of filth and despair and clean you up,"...ye be as the wings of a dove...", and place you upon His high hill, His set place ( in your heart ),"...which God desireth to dwell "IN" for ever. 


Hoping that today finds you "In His Grace"
