Staying on the Lord's side

*KEY VERSE:*

"Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, ‘Who is on the Lord's side? Let him come unto me.’ And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him” (Exodus. 32:36, KJV).

“Who is on the Lord's side?” has been am age long faith declaratory song of commitment and dedication to the cause of God. The Lord’s side is one, not two. One is either on His side or not, either for or against Him.

Indicators of being on the Lord’s Side:

Foremost is zero tolerance for iniquity, especially these days that sin goes to church as humans do.

Secondly, acceptance and accommodation for people of all tribes, ethnicity, languages and divergent views.

Thirdly, unquenchable hunger and thirst for spiritual realities and exercises. Those on the Lord’s side are usually uncomfortable when their fellowship (devotion, discipline, fasting, meditation and service) with God runs dry.

Fourth is having a balanced understanding that though things may not be pleasant, there is a better place in glory.

Finally, having and showing full and mutual respect for constituted authority.

*CONTROLLING THOUGHT:*

We do not put our heads down because things are down.

*PRAYER:*

Dear Lord, make me a Jesus person and pointer. Amen
