When I begin a blog to share God’s love as I am learning myself, I always begin with prayer that He will guide me. My prayer after reading Numbers 21 was for insight that I don’t ever mislead anyone by my own ignorance. He helped me realize I keep reaching for profound insight when all…

This morning as I sat quietly in prayer thanking God for this new day with Him, I realized and relished anew that each day is a day that will extend into eternity with God. We will be with Him forever. This present physical life is not all there is. Once we begin to grasp that…

There was a ritual introduced in Numbers 19 that was used for use in the water of cleansing; it is for the purification from sin. v. 9. The ashes of a red heifer, that was without defect or blemish, were kept outside the camp in a ceremonially clean place. The priest is to take some…

There are times when I read Scripture and I am so grateful I live today. We today have the benefit of looking back from the position of knowing God’s will for us all – as He reveals it. The people are living in the times of the Old Covenant and now in Numbers 18 Aaron…

There is a disconnect in Numbers 17. It’s such a short chapter that you almost wonder where’s the rest of it. God was trying to put an end to the people thinking that Aaron was acting on his own initiative instead of God choosing him to be High Priest with the priestly line of succession…

When we put our faith and trust in God what happens to our hearts? A change. In the morning the Lord will show who belongs to him and who is holy, and he will have that person come near to him. The man he chooses he will cause to come near to him. Numbers 16:4-5.…

I confess I had a hard time with Numbers 15. Even before finishing the Chapter I knew I needed to take it to God in prayer. I struggle with the ancient sacrifices. We just read in the last Chapter about the rebellious hearts, the disbelief in God able to protect them and the decree they…

This is such a difficult Chapter to read and understand. The people are so distraught by the message of the 10 spies inspiring terrifying fear, that they said to each other, “We should choose a leader and go back to Egypt.” And the whole assembly talked about stoning them. Numbers 14:4, 10. It got so…

I’ve heard of people walking up to people they don’t know and asking this question. That’s not what I’m doing here. We’ve all heard the story of the men sent by Moses to explore the Promised Land and bring back a report. We know what happens. The Lord said to Moses, “Send some men to…

We come to a humbling Chapter. Do you ever wonder what God would show you if He put a mirror to your face so you could see what offends Him that we can’t see but is ever before Him? I can’t help but see pride, arrogance and self glory in myself as I look into…
