  • Canaan's Cluster, Eschol's Vine | Letter 138 on assurance & joy

     
    Numbers 13:1  The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2  “Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the people of Israel. From each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a chief among them.” . . .

    21  So they went up and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near Lebo-hamath. 22  They went up into the Negeb and came to Hebron. Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, were there. (Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.) 23  And they came to the Valley of Eshcol and cut down from there a branch with a single cluster of grapes, and they carried it on a pole between two of them; they also brought some pomegranates and figs. 24  That place was called the Valley of Eshcol, because of the cluster that the people of Israel cut down from there.

    25  At the end of forty days they returned from spying out the land. 26  And they came to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation of the people of Israel in the wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh. They brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land. 27  And they told him, “We came to the land to which you sent us. It flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. 28  However, the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large. And besides, we saw the descendants of Anak there. 29  The Amalekites dwell in the land of the Negeb. The Hittites, the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell in the hill country. And the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and along the Jordan.”

    30  But Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, “Let us go up at once and occupy it, for we are well able to overcome it.” 31  Then the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are.” . . .

    Numbers 14:1  Then all the congregation raised a loud cry, and the people wept that night. 2  And all the people of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron. The whole congregation said to them, “Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! Or would that we had died in this wilderness! 3  Why is the LORD bringing us into this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will become a prey. Would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?”

    4  And they said to one another, “Let us choose a leader and go back to Egypt.”

    5  Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the people of Israel. 6  And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes 7  and said to all the congregation of the people of Israel, “The land, which we passed through to spy it out, is an exceedingly good land. 8  If the LORD delights in us, he will bring us into this land and give it to us, a land that flows with milk and honey. 9  Only do not rebel against the LORD. And do not fear the people of the land, for they are bread for us. Their protection is removed from them, and the LORD is with us; do not fear them.” 10  Then all the congregation said to stone them with stones. But the glory of the LORD appeared at the tent of meeting to all the people of Israel. . . .

    22  none of the men who have seen my glory and my signs that I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and yet have put me to the test these ten times and have not obeyed my voice, 23  shall see the land that I swore to give to their fathers. And none of those who despised me shall see it. 24  But my servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit and has followed me fully, I will bring into the land into which he went, and his descendants shall possess it.

    26  And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying, 27  “How long shall this wicked congregation grumble against me? I have heard the grumblings of the people of Israel, which they grumble against me. 28  Say to them, ‘As I live, declares the LORD, what you have said in my hearing I will do to you: 29  your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness, and of all your number, listed in the census from twenty years old and upward, who have grumbled against me, 30  not one shall come into the land where I swore that I would make you dwell, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.

    Canaan's Cluster, Eschol's Vine

    I. The Ten

    Canaan's cluster
    Eschol's vine

    From ev'ry tribe
    Men sent to spy

    To ten wise
    Fanciful flight

    Looking at the seen
    Cities fortified

    Hearts gone awry
    Grumbling and sighs:

    "O! Would to God
    that we had died!"

    "Back to Egypt!"
    The faithless cry

    Murmured in their tents
    Put God to the test

    Forgot His wondrous works
    Their hearts were not steadfast

    Lived and sowed to the flesh
    Reaped forty years' wilderness

    "They shall not enter My rest
    due to disobedience."

    II. The Two

    Canaan's cluster
    Eschol's vine

    From ev'ry tribe
    Men sent to spy

    To two babes
    Purest delight

    Believing remnant
    The different spirit

    With pilgrim's eyes
    Pressed on for the prize

    The upward call
    In Jesus Christ

    By faith looked to the unseen
    Against hope, in hope believed

    Embraced His sure promises
    Saw God who is invisible

    Affections raised
    Perfected praise

    In mouths of sucklings
    Holy tribute rings –

    Loud Hosannas
    To the Son of David

    Tasting and seeing
    Gladdening wellspring

    Supping with Christ
    The King of kings!

    Today if God's voice you do hear
    Follow Him fully with godly fear

    By the off'ring of Jesus Christ
    Come boldly to the throne of grace

    In full assurance, to your God draw near
    Enter the Holiest, enjoy Him there!

    Matthew 21:14  And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
    15  But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did,
    and the children crying out in the temple, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”
    they were indignant, and they said to him,
    16  “Do you hear what these are saying?”

    And Jesus said to them, “Yes; have you never read,

    “‘Out of the mouth of infants and nursing babies
    you have prepared praise’?”

    Matthew 11:25  At that time Jesus declared,
    “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
    that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding
    and revealed them to little children;
    26  yes, Father, for such was your gracious will.

    Mark 10:15  Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.

    John 6:60  When many of his disciples heard it, they said, “This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?” 61  But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, said to them, “Do you take offense at this? 62  Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? 63  It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is of no avail. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. 64  But there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.) 65  And he said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.”

    66  After this many of his disciples turned back and no longer walked with him. 67  So Jesus said to the Twelve, “Do you want to go away as well?”

  • by my God I can leap over a wall (Psalm 18:29b)

       
    Many Christians think once they're saved, they don't need Christ!

    Some are primarily concerned about getting a ticket out of hell, and are looking forward to heaven – rather than being concerned about how they live here, and that's a very low view of Christianity and salvation (and if you persist in that, I'd seriously question you as to whether you are really saved or not – for faith without works is dead and we are warned time and again not to receive God's grace in vain).

    Others make the dreadful mistake of thinking they can live the Christian life and fight spiritual battles with their own resources. How foolish that is! The Christian life is a life of spiritual warfare (e.g. - Ephesians 6:10-20 & II Corinthians 10:1-6). Since God has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins (Colossians 1:13-14), and because the devil is the enemy of Christ, he is also the enemy of all those who have been united to Christ by grace through faith. We must keep in mind that the devil is continuing to prowl day and night, constantly scheming and lying, seeking ways to devour us and to entangle us, to keep us from fixing our eyes on Jesus and running the race set before us.

    We will not be able to live and thrive and bring glory to God in the Christian life unless we come to see that the God who delivered us from the domain of darkness in the first place is the one to whom we must continue to turn and to ask for fresh supplies so we might press in our race, to keep walking the kingdom of light – similar to how the Israelites had to go out and collect manna for each day. Christ is our whole life. He is not only our justification, He is also our sanctification (I Cor. 1:30).  How can we expect to live the Christian life apart from the life of Christ in us?!

    In Psalm 18, David brings a song of praise and thanksgiving to God commemorating and celebrating the great deliverances God granted him, exalting and exulting in God, his strength (see also II Samuel 22).

    To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, the servant of the Lord, who addressed the words of this song to the Lord on the day when the Lord rescued him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul.

    Here's David, who was soon to be made king over all Israel – and yet see how humble he is: notice how he refers to himself as a servant of the Lord. Though David will be king, he is ever mindful who is the King of kings. And David doesn't take one iota of credit for the victories – but he rightly ascribes it all to God's merciful and gracious provision. Throughout the whole Psalm, David readily and happily acknowledges that God alone is his strength and that God alone gave him the victory, thus rendering to God all the praise, honor and glory due His name.

    David starts off with these words:

    1  I love you, O LORD, my strength.
    2  The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
    my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
    my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
    3  I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised,
    and I am saved from my enemies.

    And then David continues throughout the Psalm fervently declaring the many ways the LORD delivered him, boasting in God as his strength and professing his continued reliance on God. (I'd encourage you to read prayerfully through the whole psalm.)

    And because it is Leap Day, the second half of verse 29 got my attention:

    ... by my God I can leap over a wall.

    It seems to me that many, many Christians have walls that God is calling them to leap over, but they're failing, and they keep failing. Why? Many times it is because they have not come to know the LORD as their strength as David did. They keep trying to fight spiritual battles in their flesh. They keep turning to their own resources, wisdom, strength and ingenuity, and, as a result, they remain impotent – for they've not come to know the power of the Holy Spirit at work in them. They keep trying to pull themselves up by their bootstraps! They keep turning to secular books and counselors and twelve step programs, etc., rather than turning to the living God Himself. Should not God's people seek their God? Should not God's people seek their God as their strength?

    Jesus said that He is the vine and we are the branches, and without Him we can do nothing (see John 15:1-17).

    NOTHING!

    You may not be leaping over walls because you've not come to know the living supply of Jesus Christ through His Holy Spirit. In fact, some of you who profess to be Christians may not be leaping because you've never been born again. If you have never been born again, God's Holy Spirit has not come to dwell in you, and you don't have that vital connection with the Lord Jesus Christ, as the branch abides in the vine; therefore, there's no way you can expect to know and experience Jesus Christ as your strength.

    Or, perhaps some of you have been able to leap over some walls – and in fact, compared to most people, you're looking pretty good – however, you're not really leaping by the power of God, instead you're relying on your own strength. You've never come to know God as your strength. You have fallen into the all-American, Pharisaical snare of self-reliance. You've never come to end of yourself and the end of your own strength, so you might begin to cry out to ask for and to know God's strength. As so you function as a Christian primarily in your own fleshly strength. However, that way of life is contrary to the life God intends for the Christian:  the Christian is to put no confidence at all in the flesh and to live by the Spirit. In Galatians, Paul warns us: having been born again and started the Christian life in the Spirit, we must not return to the flesh!

    Many of us hold up Biblical figures and other saints from Christian history, and we're tempted to think they had something we don't have. Well, what they had first of all was an understanding that they were NOTHING apart from Christ, they had NOTHING apart from Christ, and they could do NOTHING apart from Christ! They saw their total insufficiency and their need to rely on God alone, their need to know Him as their strength – and that experiential knowledge is what drove them to the throne of grace to find mercy and grace to help in their time of need. And they saw every moment as a time of need! Consider this testimony of the apostle Paul:

    Who is sufficient for these things? ... Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God... (II Cor. 2:16b, 3:5).

    You may never have gotten so low and so desperate and so needy that you cried out to God so you might know Him as your strength: to really know Him – not just recite God is your strength as a Bible verse, not just sing God is your strength in a hymn on Sunday morning, not just listen to someone sing God is your strength in a YouTube video, but to know God as your strength the way David did. You may never have come to the place where you were faced with such a high and huge and thick and insurmountable wall, that you finally cried out to God in desperation, "Who is sufficient for these things? Be my Strength! I am not sufficient! Without You I can do nothing!"

    That was my position as a Christian for over twenty years. I was leaping over some walls, and I was engaged in some so-called "good works," but I regret to say that many, perhaps most of those, were done out of my own flesh. But then there came a time several years ago when a Christian had asked me to forgive an offense – and I couldn't do it – and I wouldn't do it. I was the unforgiving servant (Matt. 18:21-35) – and in a very dangerous position! But thanks be to God, in spite of myself, God's grace pursued me, and in God's command to me to forgive another as He had forgiven me, I began to see how much greater God's gift of salvation and forgiveness was toward me than I ever imagined, and how great a sinner I was, that I really was a wretch, though I'd sung it for years in "Amazing Grace" – after that time I could truly confess from the heart that I, Karen, was a wretch – and at that point, grace really did become amazing to me for the first time! The Holy Spirit convicted me and showed me how pitiably small the offense was that I was asked to forgive in comparison with all my sins that God forgave me for Christ's sake! And I found myself able to desire and then to do what I could not do in my own strength – for God gave me the desire and the ability to do His good pleasure (Philippians 2:12-14): so I was able to forgive as the Lord had forgiven me. Impossible with Karen, but possible with God! Hallelujah! He was my strength! Without Him I could do nothing, but with Christ I could do all things!

    Since that time, God has continued to show me time and time again that without Him I can do nothing, absolutely nothing at all. And as soon as I become puffed up and begin to think I can do anything without Him, thanks be to God, He knocks me back down again to the dust to show my utter insufficiency and my total dependence on Him. Oh, yes, it's certainly painful – but it is profitable! Blessed is the man whom God chastens!

    When I was recently convicted to send a message explaining the Gospel to an unsaved family member, I knew that God had given me that desire, but I had nowhere else to turn but to God, for I knew in and of myself I was wholly insufficient. I was tempted to fear the repercussions, I was tempted to please man rather than God and shrink back from following through, and I knew I had no words to write at all except what God would supply – and so I prayed God would be my strength, that His Spirit would strengthen me to fulfill the desire He had placed in me. And all glory to God alone, He was my strength – and He strengthened me to leap over that wall – and God wants to do the same in all His children, so His name alone might be magnified.

    I love these two passages for they show us how by our God we can leap over walls, and not only that – they show that our coming to know God as our strength and having His strength work in us brings Him glory.

    Hebrews 13:20  Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, 21  equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

    II Thessalonians 1:11  To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling and may fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith by his power, 12  so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    God is all about His glory, and God receives no glory when we rely upon our own strength – even though we may be leaping over some walls, and we may be looking good to ourselves, to other Christians, or to the world. But anything we do that isn't done by the power of Christ in us brings no glory to God. God alone is to be our strength and our boast and our glory:

    I Corinthians 1:26  For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. 27  But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28  God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, 29  so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. 30  He is the source of your life in Christ Jesus, whom God made our wisdom and our righteousness and sanctification and redemption. 31  Therefore, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”


    What wall stands before you that you have been unable to leap over? Have you come to know Christ as your strength, or are you continuing to walk the vain, dangerous, and God-dishonoring road of self-sufficiency?     Are you continuing to attempt to live the Christian life in your own flesh and robbing God of the glory due His name? Will you ask God to show you your insufficiency, so you might come to know God's sufficiency and come to know Him to be your strength, so like David, you might leap over a wall? Will you ask God to grow your knowledge of Him and your trust in Him so you might lay aside your own fleshly efforts and embrace Him as your strength, so you might sing with David: "I love you, O LORD, my strength... by my God I can leap over a wall!" ... and confess with the apostle Paul:  "I can do all things through him who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13).

  • By Cherith's Brook | Letter 137 on assurance & fighting for joy

    Luke 18:1 (KJV) And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint...

    Psalm 62:5  My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. 6  He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. 7  In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. 8  Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah. (KJV)

    I Kings 17:1  Now Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the LORD the God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, except by my word.” 2  And the word of the LORD came to him, 3  “Depart from here and turn eastward and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan. 4  You shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.” 5  So he went and did according to the word of the LORD. He went and lived by the brook Cherith that is east of the Jordan. 6  And the ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.

    By Cherith's Brook

    For God alone, for Thee I wait
    Importunate in prayer, else I faint

    Burdened far above my own strength
    Presented with the sentence of death

    Greatly pressed out of measure
    Who but the Almighty can deliver?

    For Your felt refreshment, true supplies
    Away from the world, I fix my eyes

    God of all comfort, hear my cries
    For Thy mercies' sake, awake! arise!

    Regard this lamb, have compassion
    Shine anew like the morning sun

    From glory to glory, by Spirit's grace
    The veil lifted, O! To see Thy face!

    No longer fettered to earthly gaze
    Lifted above the mephitic haze

    On the seen I no longer look
    I hide myself by Cherith's brook

    Away in the closet, the Divine solitude
    In the secret place, with Your strength endued

    In quietness, be weaned from the temporal
    Look to the unseen, to God invisible

    'Tis foolishness to the eye of flesh
    Yet my hope is sure: I will be refreshed

    My affections set on my God above
    Can You withhold from those You love?

    In the thicket, the ram You provided
    O! For grace to trust You, Jehovah-Jireh!

    Glorying in suffering and tribulation
    You will surely come, not leave us orphans
     
    God of all comfort, to Thee I cling
    What other god makes the downcast sing?

    Rejoicing in hope, by faith I stand
    You never disappoint like mortal man

    Shrouded in the dark, shine Your light
    Let my heart take celestial flight

    Glories stream! O! Truth and light
    Combat the dark, halt the lies

    Rejoice my soul, my exceeding Joy
    Soothe my fears, send peace unalloyed

    Love of God, be poured, comfort abound
    Surround me with deliverance sounds

    Morning and evening my soul fully satisfied
    Yet having found grace, with further grace supplied!

    Not only a sip, but wineskins bursting
    Overflowing gladness for my deepest thirsting

    Your consolations alone bring cheer
    Better than a thousand is one day here!

    Exodus 33:13 (KJV) Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.

    II Corinthians 3:16  But when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. 17  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18  And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

    II Corinthians 4:18 (KJV) While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

    II Corinthians 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4  who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5  For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. 6  If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer. 7  Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

    8  For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. 9  Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. 10  He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again. 11  You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many.

    Romans 5:1  Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2  Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3  More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4  and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5  and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

    Psalm 94:17-19
     If the LORD had not been my help,
    my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.
    When I thought, “My foot slips,”
    your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up.
    When the cares of my heart are many,
    your consolations cheer my soul.

    * * *

    Where are you looking?

    Isaiah 30:15
    For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel,
    “In returning and rest you shall be saved;
    in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.”
    But you were unwilling...

    Are you unwilling?
