Our God Is Fair

Scripture Numbers 26: [54] To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller group a smaller one; each is to receive its inheritance according to the number of those listed.

Observation: I look at some of the scriptures and notice how God is fair and just. In this chapter He is making sure the inheritance gets divided by the number of people so each person gets an equal share of the promise land. You wouldn’t think God had the time to be concerned about the details of simple man, but He loves us and treats us fair. So many of us don’t think that when we look at the trials and tribulations we go through, but each one is a test to see where we end up in our eternal life, after all that seems only fair.

Application: Remember God’s faithfulness and fairness each day. Knowing that He is God and He is with me and plays no favorites, but treats us as equal children in our inheritance. I should never complain about a situation or feel I’m being treated unjustly, but always remember my Lord is just and knows all things.

Prayer: Dear Lord forgive me when I moan or complain. Give me a heart and mind to trust you always, knowing that you’re fair and that you love me. Give me the courage to share all that you place in me to others so that they may be comforted with the fact that you love them and they have an equal part of the inheritance.
