GOD'S WORD FOR TODAY
DAILY DEVOTIONAL
CITIES OF SAFETY
READ NUMBERS 35:1 THROUGH 36:13
“Designate six cities of refuge for yourselves” (Numbers 35:13).
God instructed Moses to provide towns for the Levites. These were also to be “cities of refuge”—places where someone accused of a capital crime could be safe while awaiting trial.
In spiritual matters, God offers eternal safety to all who will enter into a relationship with Him. Unlike in the cities of refuge, no future punishment awaits the guilty because they have been forgiven.
Just as so many regions of the world are considered unsafe today, there are also many places in our churches and our families that are unsafe. Not dangerous with terrorists and invaders but because of grudges, resentment, and unwillingness to accept people who are of different nationalities or who have made mistakes.
However, God expects His people to be like Him, to forgive those who have wronged them and to live in harmony with all believers.
Thought for Today: No matter how dangerous a city may be, God provides eternal safety.
Quicklook: Numbers 35:9–15
