—Numbers 25:1-9

We can see how easy it is to get led astray. We must be extra careful to consider a person’s actions as well as his words. Temptation can be very subtle as it was for the Israelites as they entered into Canaan and were invited to join in with what the people there were doing. In their case, it resulted in 24,000 people being killed by the plague God sent as a punishment for their disloyalty to Him. Perhaps we should each take a few moments to consider where our loyalties lie and if there are areas in our lives which we need to turn over to God.
