Because of the fact that he's pouring out his blessing. He's providing for his people and yet they're still
Murmuring you say how much does God hate it? Well here it says that he destroyed them
What does that mean? He killed them?
You know, this is New Testament
Now why did this God allow this to happen look at verse number 11
Now all these things happen unto them for examples and they are written for our admonition
Upon whom the ends of the world are come so the Bible tells us that obviously this was not God's will for their lives
But you know what? There are examples
They're written for our admonition. What kind of admonition the admission is this don't be a murmur. Don't be a complainer
Don't murmur don't complain and more specifically don't complain and murmur in the midst of blessing
The title of the sermon this evening is
ways to handle God's blessing
Because we look at the children of Israel in the Old Testament. They didn't handle God's blessing very well. I
Mean they saw some pretty miraculous things did they not but they didn't handle that very well
You know what today we don't have these type of miracles happening today. We don't have water gushing out of a rock
We don't have mana falling down from heaven. We don't have God bringing the quails, you know into our back
Yard so we can kill slay and eat but you know what? We do have a meal every single day
Do we not we do have clothes on our back? We do have all the necessary
things that we need to survive and in fact
We even have an overabundance of these things and the Bible tells us that every good gift and every perfect gift
Coming from above from the father of lights in whom there is no shadow of turning, you know
No variableness or nor shadow of turning the Bible says so actually we have something a little more than that
Because we have the complete canonized Bible
They didn't have the Bible back then
So how does this principle apply to us it applies in this manner to whomsoever much is given of him shall be much required
