THE LIFE OF JOSHUA – LESSON 3

ON MOUNT SINAI

We saw yesterday that Moses appointed Joshua to lead Israel into battle. A great victory was won, and Joshua continued as the commander of Israel’s army for the next 47 years. But he was much more than just a warrior for God and Israel. He was also mentored to be a spiritual leader. This we see in Exodus 24.

Exodus 24:9 through Exodus 31 details the remarkable encounter by Moses with God. He was called up onto Mount Sinai where God spent 40 days and 40 nights giving Moses the Law in great detail. Yes, it included the Ten Commandments written on stone tablets by the finger of God Himself. But it also included all the details of the “Mosaic Law” and its rituals and tabernacle furnishings.

This encounter started from the camp as Moses took with him 70 elders of Israel, the priest Aaron, Aaron’s two sons Nadab and Abihu who were also priests. As they approached the base of the mountain, God showed His glory to the entire party. Verse 10 days, “They saw the God of Israel; and there was under His feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in His clearness.”

The appearance of God certainly confirmed His reality to the priests and the seventy elders. Then Jehovah told Moses to go up onto the mountain where he would be given tables of stone, a law, and commandments which God had written.

The three priests and the elders were to remain down at the base of Mount Sinai. Verse 13 says, “And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua; and (they) went up into the mount of God.”

Moses spent 40 days and nights communing with God on the mountain. Only Joshua was permitted to accompany him. What a privilege. What a glorious experience it must have been for Joshua. God was preparing him spiritually for leadership.

The glory cloud of God’s presence covered the whole mountain. Although the cloud covered it, the sight by the people was like a devouring fire at the top of the mountain.

All Israel could see that glory even from a distance. And Joshua was right in the midst of it, with Moses.

There is coming a time when you and I will also see God’s glory in person. It likely will not be while we are on this earth, but it will be in our appointed time.

WINESKINS

In the bible days they did not have refrigeration like we have now. They grew their own food or bought it daily in the marketplace. They kept their wine (fruit of the vine) in animal skins. When wine was first produced it needed to be put into a new wineskin because it would expand. A new wineskin would expand with the wine and would not break. If they put the new wine into the old wineskin, it would expand and cause the old wineskin to break and become useless.

Jesus talks about this in Matthew 9:17, where it says, “Neither do men put new wine into old bottles (wineskins) else the bottles (wineskins) break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles (wineskins) perish (are ruined): but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

He is speaking a parable describing salvation. You can’t put the new things of God into our old nature. We must be born again and then be filled with the Holy Spirit. This is the only way to keep yourselves from being destroyed.

With the Old Year ending, and a New Year upon us, let us be mindful to put away the old things and be ready for the new. Just like salvation that comes to a person and makes them new, letting go of our victories and our failures will allow us to grow. Let’s not dwell upon “what was” but rather be ready for the new things that God is going to do in our lives.

Let us be like those new wineskins, willing and ready to expand as the Holy Spirit invades every part of our lives. Let’s not let fear keep us in that old wineskin, and let’s not bring the old wine into the new year. Make 2022 a fresh start and be willing to expand with God!

The promise you’ve been holding out for indeed may have been delayed; But just know in your heart that it has not been denied. “Though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” (Hab.‬ ‭2:3‬b) Have a blessed day and don’t you ever give up…Holding onto your promise and to your purpose.
