The Power and Consequences of Evil Influences!!! Chapter 25 in the Book of Numbers is not long but is pivotal in its teaching. Powerful in precedence and expression. Many are easily influenced by evil. Particularly when it is disguised under the guise of pleasure and self-gratification. God had just refused to allow anyone to curse […]
Now Is Not the Time to Waiver (3) Bear with me as we go into chapter 24. In it there are specific blessings of victories allotted to the children of Israel. Be aware that our disobedience towards God can cause a matter to turn. This is established in chapter 28 of the Book of Deuteronomy […]
Now Is Not the Time to Waiver (2) As we continue into chapter 23 of the Book of Numbers, it will be obvious that who God blesses is “blessed”. And no man can turn it but the one who it was bestowed upon. Man’s consecration depends on him. One thing that is obvious about Balaam, […]
Now is Not the Time to Waiver!!! As we enter into chapter 22 of the Book of Numbers, we will cover key points and there may be more parts because it extends into Chapter 24. Note that even sinners can see when someone is blessed. What is unfortunate about this is that they don’t see […]
I Have Done No Wrong!!! As I read in chapter 21 of the Book of Numbers, the Israelites were in the Negev, the south country. King Arad of the Canaanites heard that Israel was coming. He fought against them and took some of them captive. “And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, […]
There Are Levels to This The last chapter that we studied was giving the Israelites ways to purify themselves from the unclean. God wanted to take them all, specifically Moses and Aaron, to a higher level. But with these come requirements. Of these, two are faith and obedience. Now I am asking the LORD to […]
Never Despise New Beginnings!!! When I say this, I mean never forsake God’s mercy when He gives you an opportunity to start over. Chapter 19 in the Book of Numbers is relatively short. As I was praying for discernment, I couldn’t help but question why it was written and what it meant for the children […]
Heed the Lessons!!! As I continue in the Book of Numbers, God is again, giving Aaron the responsibilities of the priesthood. Continuing to show the seriousness of this vocation. Clearly letting them know that it is their duty to ensure that everyone follows the commandments of the LORD. “So the LORD said to Aaron, ‘You […]
Harden Not Your Hearts As we continue in the Book of Numbers, I want to finish chapter 17. To show you the severe lack of discernment and accountability shown in the Israelites. Korah, Dathan, Abiram, and those who followed them were swallowed alive in the earth, immediately condemned to hell, and devoured by fire. I […]
Godliness is Contentment with Great Gain!!! How quickly we forget. This is sad. The people of Israel were redundant in their minds. And many still are today. It is what some call “The Crab in The Barrel Mentality”. One of the main reasons for recording the events in the Bible is because God’s Word is […]
