Numbers 14v11 - Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will these people reject Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the signs which I have performed among them?
Lack of faith or confidence in God is equivalent to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns the person into an enemy of God. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” (Hebrews 11:6 NKJV) In the book of Numbers, we see the pain of God due to the unbelief of the children of God. “Then the LORD said to Moses: “How long will these people reject Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the signs which I have performed among them? 12I will strike them with the pestilence and disinherit them, and I will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they.” (Numbers 14:11-12 NKJV)
In Parshat Shemot, we hear about the early life of Moses: How his mother put him into the Nile as a baby, how he was raised in Pharaoh's house, how he fled from Egypt… and how God sent him back to lead the Israelites out of slavery. But there's one detail that's easy to miss in all the drama. God tells Moses at the burning bush: “Your brother Aaron is coming to meet you, and he is rejoicing in his heart.”Why does it matter that Aaron is rejoicing? Yes, he's going to see his long-lost little brother. Yes, he's going to be the spokesman who helps Moses carry out his mission. But why is it so important for God to note that Aaron is happy about this? And… how will this tiny detail shed light on a mysterious midrash about Moses and the bones of Joseph?Join Ari Levisohn and Beth Lesch as they explore the surprising connections between Joseph and Moses and uncover a remarkable and moving story about the power of brotherly love.WEB-EXCLUSIVE EPILOGUE: Ari and Beth continue the conversation and investigate a new midrash, this one highlighting Moses's relationship with his sister Miriam.

Observations: I. Lord-directed: Gather 70 men who are elders II. Spreading of the Spirit (He empowers and equips) III.The Lord gave the people the meat they wanted for a whole month (Illustration: Parent saying ok, and giving their child pancakes for a month until they are sick of them) IV. Moses: How will you do this, Lord? Do you expect me to do it? V. Lord responds basically: Can I not do it? You shall see VI. Sign of the Spirit's coming here—they prophesied VII. Eldad and Medad VIII. Verse 29 VIV. Quail & Plague Applications: - The spreading of the Spirit - a rarity in the OT, but the privilege of every NT Believer. The Holy Spirit indwells every Believer. Likewise, every Believer is to desire the gift of prophecy to boldly proclaim the Gospel. - Moses complained directly to the Lord. The burden impacted him. The people, without the Spirit, were only able to complain to Moses their mediator. Because of the Blood of Jesus, every Believer can go to the Lord directly. - Complaining leads to craving (lust) which in turn leads to compromise. The Desire for Egypt was regarded as better than freedom in the Lord. Rather than receiving His daily provision (and we as Believers pray for our daily bread, Matt 6), they wanted a slave's ration. - The sin unto death as a result of the quail plague was meant to be a lesson for the whole nation. They were meant to learn from this and teach their children and grandchildren. Prayer: Thank You that we are not alone and even when we don't understand, You Provide. Lord, how often have we behaved just like the Israelites whom you justly struck dead. Father, complaining is a serious sin, much more serious than we are prone to treat it. Forgive us, Father, fill us with Your Spirit & Guard the affects of our heart. Refs.

In Contempt of God Rev Linda Simpson Numbers 14:1-11 New King James Version (NKJV) Israel Refuses to Enter Canaan 14 So all the congregation lifted up their voices and cried, and the people wept that night. 2 And all the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron, and the whole congregation said to them, “If only we had died in the land of Egypt! Or if only we had died in this wilderness! 3 Why has the Lord brought us to this land to [a]fall by the sword, that our wives and children should become victims? Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt?” 4 So they said to one another, “Let us select a leader and return to Egypt.” 5 Then Moses and Aaron [b]fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel. 6 But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes; 7 and they spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: “The land we passed through to spy out is an exceedingly good land. 8 If the Lord delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, ‘a land which flows with milk and honey.’ 9 Only do not rebel against the Lord, nor fear the people of the land, for they[c] are our bread; their protection has departed from them, and the Lord is with us. Do not fear them.” 10 And all the congregation said to stone them with stones. Now the glory of the Lord appeared in the tabernacle of meeting before all the children of Israel. Moses Intercedes for the People 11 Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will these people reject[d] Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the [e]signs which I have performed among them?

REFLECT Look again at Exodus 33:1-11. Imagine you are one of the Israelites in the camp. What would you feel in this situation? Looking back on the past few months, what regrets would you have? What hopes do you have? In Exodus 33:12-23, what exactly does Moses request of God? What does God agree to do? What does He not agree to do? What does the text say is God’s motivation for responding the ways in which He does? How does God’s description of Himself in Exodus 34:6-7 fit well with His dealings with Israel thus far? In Exodus 34:10-28, God reasserts His role as the just Law-Giver, jealous for His glory, wrathful toward those who oppose Him. How do we reconcile this portrayal with the God who is “merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness”? APPLY Exodus 34:29-35 speaks of the radiant face of Moses after having spent time in God’s presence. Read Hebrews 1:1-3. How do these verses help us understand Jesus as the true and better Moses? How do they help you understand what it means to be an imitator of Christ?

Deuteronomy 34: The Death of Moses | How would you like to die? Most people would like to pass peacefully in their sleep, but none went so gentle into eternity as Moses did. It is said that "God kissed him" and he slept. It is fitting that Moses, who had spent time in God's presence every day for forty years, since the age of 80, simply awakes in God's presence. Journey 7 | Promises Kept. Journey Seven returns to Jesus' story, as Matthew presents Christ as the coming King and fulfillment of God's promises. In the Old Testament, Deuteronomy brings us to the edge of the Promised Land as Moses reminds Israel of God's faithfulness and challenges them to trust God for the road ahead. Then Hebrews connects the dots between the testaments, and 2nd Corinthians digs in to the heart of ministry.
