The Hippopotamus - NCCG.ORG Ning Network Archive 2008-10

"And Elohim said, let the waters under the heaven be gathered together in one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so . . . and Elohim said, Let the earth bring forth vegetation--and Elohim saw that it was good . . . And Elohim said, Let the water bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life . . . And Elohim saw everything that He had made, and behold it was very good." [Genesis chapter one]

The hippopotamus used to live undisturbed in the African swamps. When man came along to build and plant he cut down trees. Hippos often invaded man's field looking for food. Man decided to destroy the hippopotamus. But then a problem arose--water lilies began to grow and clog man's waterways. Little water snails living in the water lilies carry a worm that makes man sick. Hippos love to eat water lilies. And so man decided to let the hippos live to control the water lilies, open waterways, and cut down the disease carrying snails.

Yahweh made the waters, the plants, and the animals. They all work together in life and in death to keep everything working together and to keepeverything in balance so that there is not too much of one thing or another.

Yahweh does things rightly. We cannot improve upon what He has made. Instead we need to surrender and submit to the Elohim Who works all things well, after the counsel of His will.

The same Elohim Who keeps nature in balance wants to keep your life in balance so you will be just right. You need to surrender to Him. Receive the Master Yah'shua the Messiah, Who died for you and arose again, as your only Elohim and Saviour from sin, and then let Him rule your life in everything.

"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." [Proverbs 3:5-6]
