Thursday Devotional - How long is your arm?

Are you able to reach everything you need to reach or fulfill all your promises that require the use of your arms? Do you have any limitations?

How long is God’s arm? Does He have any limitations?  

During the Israelites’ desert travels to the promise land, they complained frequently. After about a year of travel, they wailed about not having any meat to eat. God had faithfully and miraculously provided manna for them to eat, but they weren’t satisfied with His choice of provision. Hearing their wailing, He promised to give them meat not just for one day but until they loathed it. However, Moses wondered where God was going to get all that meat!
Numbers 11:21-23         21 But Moses said, “Here I am among six hundred thousand men on foot, and you say, ‘I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!’ 22 Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?” 23 The Lord answered Moses, “Is the Lord’s arm too short? Now you will see whether or not what I say will come true for you.”

When God promises something, you can be sure it will happen! His arm isn’t too short. He doesn’t have any limitations.    

Do you and I believe all of God’s promises in His Word? 
Do you and I believe all His commands and warnings, as well?

What God says is fully trustworthy, whether it’s a promise, command or a warning.
