Yet they kept on sinning against him,
rebelling against the Most High in the desert.
They stubbornly tested God in their hearts,
demanding the foods they craved.
They even spoke against God himself, saying,
'God can't give us food in the wilderness.
Yes, he can strike a rock so water gushes out,
but he can't give his people bread and meat.'
When the LORD heard them, he was furious.
The fire of his wrath burned against Jacob.
Yes, his anger rose against Israel,
for they did not believe God
or trust him to care for them."

What gets God angry? Our not trusting him to take care of us. Our belief that he is not truly good and does not want to bless us. If you're not sure God loves you, wants to bless you, has good things for you, then you need to ask his forgiveness. He is your heavenly Father and mighty God. If your image of him does not match this picture, your god is false. Ask God to activate your trust in him as he truly is. This is a prayer he will delight in answering!
