'They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine' (Isaiah 29:24).
The Jews erred concerning God's truth and His ordinances; concerning Christ, his work and office, choosing the traditions of men over the Word of God. The Gentiles lacked understanding of his Word and erred in spirit of His truth. God was saying to them then and is speaking to us now, who may have chosen the traditions of men over the word of God, to come to spiritual understanding of Christ and His work of salvation for mankind. We need to be reminded that unless God gives understanding and knowledge, man will forever err and murmur against him. In the past when God's people murmured against him, it sometimes leads to rebellion, which God hates. God is saying to His people who have been murmuring against His prophets and His faithful teachers, that they shall receive knowledge of His truth and will accept instructions that will lead them to become obedient and submissive to His will and purpose. Here we see the wonderful mercy of God revealed. He seek to bring back into the right path those who are unworthy, and makes them partakers of his divine love. Have we at times murmured against God and his laws? Well, when we come to understand more of God and His love, we will be more susceptible in accepting His instruction of His truth and will have nothing but praise and Thanksgiving on our lips for Him and his marvellous work. If we are ignorant of and erred from His truth, it can lead us to sin against God. Therefore, let us be desirous of studying His Word, searching the Scriptures daily that testify of Christ; in prayer and supplication unto God, desiring full understanding of His truth and allowing the Holy Spirit to be our teacher and guide.
Have a wonderful day🌹🌹
