God has a spiritual law which states that when people
refuse to believe Him and turn to lies, He will send delusion so
strong that they will be unable to know the truth and will defend
the lies to the point of death. Korah was one such person who
willingly rejected the truth of God and convinced others to join him
in rebellion. He was a cousin to Moses and Aaron and served in the
tabernacle but he became unhappy with his position. Korah’s
assignment was to submit to his cousins and to do the will of God,
but he wanted to be in charge, and so he concocted various lies
about Moses and Aaron. The end result saw him spiritually blinded
and turned over to deception. Now, we don’t know how long Korah’s
conspiracy lasted but he was able to persuade 250 tribal leaders to
join him in rebellion. People operating under strong delusion will
always believe a lie rather than the truth and Korah and his
followers were defiant until the end when God caused the earth to
open up and swallow them alive. Only the Holy Spirit has the power
to keep you from repeating Korah’s mistake. Ask the Lord to help you
in discerning the truth. |
