Yes, please add me to your ping list.
the desert is a place of almost no distraction, the barrenness and the heat or cold is so penetrating as to be cleansing of most all other thoughts. It is turning us into basic survival. No outside distractions. Purifying. Jesus met satan there and passed his temptations by quoting the scriptures to satan. Then the angels came and tended him.
Israel had to have EGYPT removed/burned out of them it took until the ones above 20 years old died. They were so entrenched in the thinking of Egypt they had to die before Israel could enter the promised land. Even today some go to the desert for a place of solitude and contemplation with God. No worldly influences tempting them daily there.
The LORD had brought them (Israel) out with miracles, demonstrated miracles everyday; and yet they quickly fell into sin again and again. So after repeated disobedience God kept them in the desert wandering, until those generations (over 20) died MOO.
“5. And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7. And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
8. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
9. And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.”

Let us do this. We have failed to live up to these instructions except for a few obedient believers of God.
How our world would be changed if we did what God ‘s principles instrust us to do.
God help us in our day, Bless Israel, Jerusalem, America, the lost, and the persecuted believers of the world, and the Muslims, in Jesus name, Amen.
Very Good Point!
The Law was given prior to those 40 tough years, but even having God’s Very Word in their hands wasn’t enough.
They HAD to go through that desert experience as well.
We can be SO STUBBORN!
