Num. 24, 25 [The Message]

The Hebrew men were allured into a sex orgy by the Moabite women. God’s wrath was kindled by their forsaking of His standards of moral purity. He sent a plague among them and demanded that the leaders involved be hanged to death. The plague was finally stopped by the act of Phinehas, the son of a priest, who drove a spear through the bodies of two immoral guilty participants. His deed stopped the plague which had already killed 24,000.

The influence of moral impurity must be mortified. In the way Phinehas put a death strike through the flesh of a moral downfall, so must we deal mercilessly with the sinful nature which only leads to our spiritual decay. Kill it or it will kill you.

Gratefully, the blood of Christ cleanses us from all unrighteousness.
