I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 9th of December, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
We start in the Book of Leviticus 10:3 (Amplified Version):
“Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord said:
‘I will be treated as holy by those who approach Me,
And before all the people I will be honoured.’”
So Aaron, therefore, said nothing.”
What had happened was, the two sons of Aaron had decided to make a plan. They had decided to bring an offering of fire to the altar in the Tabernacle but God did not receive it because they did not do it with respect towards Him and they died on the spot.
Then we go to John 2:5. and the servants came to Mary, Jesus’ mother and they wanted to know, “What must we do?” Mary said,
“Whatever He says to you, do it.”
I want to say to you this morning, God has really laid this on my heart, for me as well - a good idea is not always a God idea. The Lord does not want you and I to help Him. He wants you and I to obey Him. Don’t try and help God, rather obey Him because He is a Holy God.
Commandment Number Five, which the Lord gave Moses to give us to obey is “Honour your mother, Honour your father, so that your days may be long in the land.” Now that is a commandment. It doesn’t matter what they say to you, do it for God’s sake so that the Lord will honour you. Do you know, that is the first commandment in the Bible with a promise added to it.
“Honour your mother and your father so that your days may be long in the land.”
I want to tell you a quick story before we close. I remember reading many years ago of a man sitting in his office, and on the windowsill of his office, there was a cocoon, and in the cocoon was a pupa, and this little worm was trying to get out of the cocoon so that it could turn into a beautiful butterfly, but it was struggling, and he watched it as he was doing his work at the desk and eventually he thought, “I will just help it.” He had a little knife on his desk, he took the knife and cut open the cocoon. He tried to help the butterfly. What happened? The butterfly just fell out of the cocoon and onto the ground. You see, when a butterfly comes out of a cocoon, it needs to exercise and strengthen it’s wings and it’s body so that it can fly.
Do not try and help God, just obey Him! Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,
Goodbye.
