"Then the LORD said to Moses:',

"Then the LORD said to Moses: Is the LORD's arm too short?" Numbers 11:23

No! What He has done—He can do. He will do all He has promised. All that His people need—He will do. He has all power. He knows no difficulty. Why then are we cast down? Because we do not . . .
believe His Word,
depend simply on His veracity,
expect all we need from His hand.

He was displeased with Moses when he questioned His power; and He is displeased with us when we doubt His love, distrust His providence, or ask, "How can this thing be?" Whatever may be your difficulty, trial, or need—plead with the Lord, and confidently expect deliverance. And if any temptation is presented to weaken your faith, rouse your fears, or disturb your tranquillity—meet it with this question, "Is the LORD's arm too short?"

Beloved, look not to the arm of man—but simply look to the arm of God. Man may disappoint you—God will not. He is faithful who promised. He is a God at hand. He will be near you throughout this day; His arm is able and ready to help you; therefore trust, and be not afraid.
