Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.

If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show, would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?

This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.

Thanks.

Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of

God. You're listening to Daily Truth. As they're traveling from Kyrjath Jerem to the city of

Jerusalem, the oxen stumble, and the cart begins to sway and the arc begins to slide

and it seems as though it's going to fall into the dirt. The holy, holy, holy God, his indwelt

presence in the ark of the common is going to fall in the mud.

And so with good intentions, I have no doubt.

A man named Uza, who is near the cart, he reaches out his hand to still the ark so that it wouldn't fall into the dirt.

And God strikes him dead for touching the ark.

Now, David, 2nd Samuel, chapter 6, David, his first reaction is anger, but immediately it turns to fear. At first, David is angry because in his heart, he's probably

thinking what you and I might be tempted to think. He's thinking, why would God kill a man who

whose intentions seemingly

were good? He was trying to protect the Ark of the covenant from falling in to the dirt. Now,

the answer for why God would do that, of course, is this, that although Uza's intentions may

have been good, he was presumptuous and arrogant, because what he presupposed is this,

he presupposed that it would be an improvement for the presence of God to touch the hand of a man

than the dirt. See, brothers and sisters, dirt has never defied the living God.

Dirt has never risen up to rebel against Yahweh.

Dirt has not sinned against God and fallen short of his glory.
