Numbers 18:20 The Lord told Aaron, “You will not have an inheritance in their land; there will be no portion among them for you. I am your portion and your inheritance among the Israelites.“ (CSB)

You’ve heard of the Gift That Keeps On Giving. Our Father in Heaven gives himself to all who hunger and thirst for him.

As a deer longs for flowing streams, so I long for you, God.
I thirst for God, the living God.
When can I come and appear before God?
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭42‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭CSB‬‬

God is the Giver of All Good Things (James 1:17).

God is the initiator of giving. He gives his highest and best.

For God loved the world in this way:
He gave his one and only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Eleven Hebrew tribes received allotments of land in the Promised Land. Aaron’s tribe, Levi, did not. They received so much more.

The Lord told Aaron,
“You will not have an inheritance in their land;
there will be no portion among them for you.
I am your portion and your inheritance among the Israelites.“
‭‭Numbers‬ ‭18‬:‭20‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Everything Aaron, his family, and his descendants needed was provided by God’s generous hand. God was more than enough in every circumstance.

Is God in all his goodness, greatness, kindness, and compassion enough for you? Is his perfect love perfecting you? Is his amazing grace reshaping your bent and broken life?

Nothing in this world will ever be enough, nothing but God and God alone.

Hunger less for dainty morsels and tasty meats. Thirst less for fiery beverages and sweet drinks. Choose more of God from the menu of this world’s delights. Only in him is there perfect provision and ultimate satisfaction.

—

I will hunger and thirst for more of God who is more than enough.

—

Our Father, I want to know you as more than a name. I want more than a system of belief and behavior. I want to know your heart and mind. I want to experience your grace and mercy and help others do the same. You are more than enough in all circumstances and at all times. Amen.

Daily D – Deuteronomy 30:19-20

Deuteronomy 30:19, 20 “This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 29:29

Deuteronomy 29:29 “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 26:16-19

Deuteronomy 26:16-19 “The Lord your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul. You have declared this day that the Lord is your God and that you will walk in obedience to him, that you will keep his decrees, commands and laws—that you will listen to him. And the Lord has declared this day that you are his people, his treasured possession as he promised, and that you are to keep all his commands. He has declared that he will set you in praise, fame and honor high above all the nations he has made and that you will be a people holy to the Lord your God, as he promised.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 23:4-5

Deuteronomy 23:4, 5 “For they did not come to meet you with bread and water on your way when you came out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram Naharaim to pronounce a curse on you. However, the Lord your God would not listen to Balaam but turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the Lord your God loves you.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 17:16-20

Deuteronomy 17:16-20 The king, moreover, must not acquire great numbers of horses for himself or make the people return to Egypt to get more of them, for the Lord has told you, “You are not to go back that way again.” He must not take many wives, or his heart will be led astray. He must not accumulate large amounts of silver and gold.

When he takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. It is to be with him, and **he is to read it all the days of his life so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law to the right or to the left.** Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel.
