"These are the journeys of the sons of Israel, by which they came out from the land of Egypt by their armies, under the leadership of Moses and Aaron. Moses recorded their starting places according to their journeys by the command of the Lord, and these are their journeys according to their starting places." -Numbers 33.1-2
Verses 3-49 record the journey of the people from Egypt to the Jordan. Moses kept record of where they people moved as they journeyed in the wilderness. There is a detailed list of where they have been. They can look back and see how God lead them from Egypt to the Jordan, and as they look at the list they can remember how God provided, and the things that they learned along the way.
Men, do you have a list of where you have been? Have you recorded the details of your journey? Some of them might be physical locations that God has lead you to. Others might be stages in the masculine journey. But do you have a record of where you have been?
Without knowing where we have been it's easy to forget what we've learned. Without knowing where we've been it's hard to measure the growth we've experienced. Without knowing where we've been how can we leave a record for those who come after us to learn from us?
What has God done in your life? What has God brought you through? When did God teach you the most about Himself? When did God teach you the most about yourself? Where were you? Let us record our journey so that others may see how God worked in our lives. Let them see where He brought us from, and where we ended up. Where have you been?
"Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."
To God alone be the Glory!
Strength and Honor
