Not so with My servant Moses; He is faithful in all My house. Numbers 12:7 NKJV
In the Old Testament, the most significant victory ever recorded is when God freed Israel after 400 years in bondage in Egypt. As Miriam, the prophetess and Sister of Moses, declared in a song to be “the glorious triumph of God”. It prefigured Christ’s glorious triumph in delivering us from our sins, when He died on the cross which, in the New Testament, is definitely the most significant event. Moses and Christ were called Servants of God. Being called “my servant” is an honor bestowed to both Moses and Christ. But there is a great difference. Moses was appointed by God to be the servant leader to liberate and bring Israel to the Promised Land. “In all My House” refers to Israel. It was the family or household of God, the nation of God in ancient times. Christ also took on the title “Servant” to liberate and lead the Church, God’s family or household, to the Promised Heaven. But Christ also took on the role of the Son. He is Heir to His Father’s house. He is the head of the house, the Church.Moses was not called the Son, not even called the heir. But he was faithful to all of God’s Family. What more if you are a child of God and Heir of all the richest in His house? Should we not care for our own household? Should we not be loyal and faithful to the house or family where we belong? To put it straight, will you leave the house of God, the Most Holy Church and forsake it considering that you and I are given the greatest honor of being “servants and sons and daughters” of the Most High God? Of course, we shall all be faithful, care and love for each other, for it the greatest honor that we have to be heir of the Kingdom of Heaven! Some of us are chosen to be Servant leaders. Like Moses let be our enduring resolve to serve and to lead the brethren to perfection. With god’s help, as he helped Moses in this great task of delivering and leading Israel to the promised land, let us go on to perfection together and attain glorious triumph for the glory of God.
