Our Daily Bread Today Devotional 15 November 2021 | Powerful and Loving
Topic: Powerful and Loving
KEY VERSE:
You came near and stood at the foot of the mountain while it blazed with fire to the very heavens, with black clouds and deep darkness.
– Deuteronomy 4:11
Today’s Scripture: Deuteronomy 4:5–8, 11–14
INSIGHT:
In 2020, the Ecuadorian volcano Sangay erupted. The BBC described the “dark ash plume which reached a height of more than 12,000 m.” The discharge covered four provinces (about 198,000 acres) in gray ash and grimy soot. The sky turned dingy and grim, and the air was thick—making it difficult to breathe. Farmer Feliciano Inga described the unnerving scene to El Comercio newspaper: “We didn’t know where all this dust was coming from. . . . We saw the sky go dark and grew afraid.”
The Israelites experienced a similar fear at the base of Mount Sinai, as they “stood at the foot of the mountain while it blazed with fire . . . with black clouds and deep darkness” (Deuteronomy 4:11). God’s voice thundered, and the people trembled. It was terrifying. It’s an awesome, knee-buckling experience to encounter the living God.
“Then the Lord spoke,” and they “heard the sound of words but saw no form” (v. 12). The voice that rattled their bones provided life and hope. God gave Israel the Ten Commandments and renewed His covenant with them. The voice from the dark cloud caused them to quake, but also wooed and loved them with tenacity (Exodus 34:6–7).
God is powerful, beyond our reach, even startling. And yet He’s also full of love, always reaching out to us. A God both powerful and loving—this is who we desperately need. By: Winn Collier

REFLECT: When has an encounter with God made you tremble? How did He also communicate love?
PRAYER:
God, at times I’ve approached You too casually, assumed too much. Thank You for Your patience with me. And thank You for Your love.
Bible in a Year: Lamentations 3–5, Hebrews 10:19–39
