Numbers 20:28 (NKJV) 28 Moses stripped Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As I was studying recently, I was reading through this passage and the verses before it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The preceding verses tell of how God had told Moses to take Aaron and his son to the top of the mountain, remove Aaron\u2019s priestly garments and place them on Aaron\u2019s son, and that Aaron would then die there.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Earlier in this journey, Moses and Aaron had disobeyed God. Because of their disobedience, God had told them that neither of them would enter the land that He had promised the people of Israel. This was the price they would pay for their disobedience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And on this day, Moses would see God keep His word, as Aaron died there on that summit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Fast forward to today, we now live under grace. We don\u2019t have to worry about God telling us to go to the top of a mountain and die there as punishment for not obeying Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This event, though, shows us the importance of obeying God when He wants us to do something. He takes it seriously.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Living under God\u2019s grace doesn\u2019t give us a perpetual permission slip to take these types of things lightly and do as we please.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On the contrary, as we obey God, it shows Him that we\u2019re serious about our relationship with Him, and serious about pleasing Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And as we walk out the things He wants us to do, we\u2019re doing it because we want<\/em> to, not because we live in fear of being told that today is the day we will die for our disobedience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Honor God. Put Him first. Do what He asks. And walk in His blessings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
