POSTERITY-1
POSTERITY-1
Exodus 17:12 “But Moses’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.”
Posterity talks about the people in our future or our future generations and the legacy we are leaving for them. It talks about how we want to be remembered.
Our actions today are seeds for tomorrow that is why we must be very careful how we sow those seeds today. In the Bible and in our contemporary days, there are people nobody want to associate with because of the way some of their progenitors lived. I am yet to hear anybody claiming to be a descendant of Judas Iscariot, Delilah or Jezebel. It was as if they never existed.
My spiritual father said, “Even if people forgives and forgets, history will never forgive or forget”. There are some names in our history that will always be mentioned for evil, whatever they do now won’t matter. When such people die, their descendants changes the family name so as to try and erase them from memory but history doesn’t.
If man and history doesn’t forget, how much more God, the Father and Creator of all. Where am I going with all these?
Exodus 31:2 “See I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:”
Exodus 31:3 “And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,”
Exodus 31:4 “To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,”
Exodus 31:5 “And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.”
Hur seems to be a nobody but a man who held up the hand of Moses and one of the elders of Israel.
To be continued…
