NUMBERS 11 - 13
NUMBERS 11
Complaints in the Desert
1 (Lev 10:2; Nu 16:35) Now when the people complained openly before the Lord,
the Lord heard, and His anger burned. Then the fire of the Lord burned among
them and consumed the outskirts of the camp.
2 (Nu 21:7; 16:45-48) And the people cried out to Moses, and Moses prayed
to the Lord, and the fire was quenched.
3 (Dt 9:22) He called the name of the place Taberah
because the fire of the Lord burned among them.
4 (Ex 12:38; 1Co 10:6) The mixed multitude that was among them lusted,
and the children of Israel wept again and said,
"Who will give us meat to eat?
5 (Ex 16:3) We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for free,
the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic.
6 (Nu 21:5) But now our life is dried up. There is nothing at all except
this manna before our eyes."
7 (Ex 16:31; Ge 2:12) The manna was as coriander seed,
and it looked like bdellium.
8 (Ex 16:16-18; 16:31) The people went about and gathered it,
and ground it in mills or beat it in a mortar, and boiled it in pots,
and made cakes of it, and the taste of
it was like the taste of cakes baked in oil.
9 (Ex 16:13-14) When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna fell on it.
10 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in
the opening of his tent, and the anger of the Lord burned greatly.
Moses was also displeased.
11 (Dt 1:12) Moses said to the Lord, "Why have You hurt Your servant?
And why have I not found favor in Your eyes, that You lay the burden
of all this people on me?
12 (Ex 13:5; Isa 49:23) Have I conceived all this people? Have I given
them birth, that You should say to me, 'Carry them in your bosom, as a
nurse bears the nursing child,' to the land which You swore to their fathers?
13 (Mt 15:33; Mk 8:4) Where am I to get meat to give to all these people?
For they weep to me, saying, 'Give us meat, that we may eat.'
14 (Ex 18:18) I am not able to bear all these people alone,
because the burden is too heavy for me.
15 (1Ki 19:4; Jnh 4:3) If You do this to me, please kill me at once,
if I have found favor in Your eyes, and do not let me see my misery."
The Seventy Elders
16 (Ex 24:1; 24:9) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Gather to Me seventy men
of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people,
and officers over them, and bring them to the tent of meeting,
that they may take a stand there with you.
17 (Nu 11:25; 1Sa 10:6) And I will come down, and I will speak with you there,
and I will take of the Spirit which is on you and will put it on them,
and they will bear the burden of the people with you, and you will not bear
it by yourself.
18 (Ex 19:10; Nu 11:1) "And say to the people: Consecrate yourselves
for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat, for you have wept in the hearing
of the Lord, saying, 'Who will give us meat to eat?
For it was better for us in Egypt.'
Therefore the Lord will give you meat, and you shall eat.
19 You shall eat, not one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days,
or twenty days,
20 (Ps 106:15; Nu 21:5) but a whole month, until it comes out
at your nostrils, and it will be nauseating to you because
you rejected the Lord who is among you and have wept before Him,
saying, 'Why did we come out of Egypt?' "
21 (Ex 12:37; 38:26) And Moses said, "The people I am with number
600000 foot soldiers, and You have said,
'I will give them meat that they may eat a whole month.'
22 (Mt 15:33) Will the flocks and the herds be slaughtered for them,
to satisfy them? Or will all the fish of the sea be gathered together
for them, to satisfy them?"
23 (Isa 50:2; 59:1) And the Lord said to Moses,
"Is the hand of the Lord shortened? Now you will see
if My word will happen to you or not."
24 (Nu 11:16) Moses went out, and he spoke to the people the words
of the Lord and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people
and set them around the tabernacle.
25 (Nu 11:17; 12:5; 1Sa 10:10) And the Lord came down in a cloud,
and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him,
and gave it to the seventy elders, and when the Spirit rested on them,
they prophesied, but did not do it again.
26 (1Sa 20:26; Jer 36:5) But two men remained in the camp.
The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other, Medad.
And the Spirit rested on them. They were among those listed,
but they had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp.
27 And a young man ran and told Moses and said,
"Eldad and Medad prophesy in the camp."
28 Then Joshua the son of Nun, the assistant of Moses from his youth,
answered and said, "My lord Moses, forbid them."
29 (1Co 14:5) Moses said to him, "Are you jealous for my sake?
Oh, that all the people of the Lord were prophets,
and that the Lord would put His Spirit upon them!"
30 And Moses returned to the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
The Lord Sends Quail
31 (Ex 16:13; Ps 105:40) Now a wind from the Lord started up,
and it swept quail from the sea and let them fall beside the camp,
about a day's journey on this side and a day's journey on the other side,
around the camp, and about two cubits (About 3 feet, or 90 centimeters.
above the ground.)
32 (Eze 45:11; Ex 16:36) And the people stayed up all that day, all night,
and all the next day, and gathered the quail. Those who gathered least
gathered ten homers. (Likely about 1 3/4 tons, or 1.6 metric tons.)
And they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.
33 (Ps 78:30-31; Nu 16:49) While the meat was between their teeth,
before it was chewed, the anger of the Lord burned against the people,
and the Lord struck the people with a very great slaughter.
34 (Dt 9:22) And he called the name of that place Kibroth Hattaavah
because there they buried the people who had the craving.
35 (Nu 33:17; 12:16) The people journeyed from Kibroth Hattaavah
to Hazeroth, and they camped at Hazeroth.
(Why whine to your Saviour? Trust in him to provide your needs.)
NUMBERS 12
Miriam and Aaron Oppose Moses
1 (Ex 2:21) And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because
of the Cushite woman whom he married, for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 (Nu 11:1; 16:3) They said, "Has the Lord spoken only by Moses?
Has He not spoken also by us?" And the Lord heard it.
3 (Mt 11:29) (Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all the men
on the face of the earth.)
4 And the Lord spoke at once to Moses and to Aaron and to Miriam,
"Come out, you three, to the tent of meeting." And those three came out.
5 (Nu 11:25; Ex 34:5) The Lord came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood
in the opening of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam,
and they both came forward.
6 (Ge 46:2; 1Ki 3:5) He said, "Hear now My word.
If there is a prophet among you,
I the Lord will make Myself known to him in a vision,
and I will speak to him in a dream.
7 (Ps 105:26) Not so with My servant Moses;
he is entrusted with all My house.
8 (Dt 34:10; Ex 24:10–11) Face to face I speak with him clearly,
and not in riddles,
and the likeness of the Lord will he behold.
Then why were you not afraid
to speak against My servant, against Moses?"
9 And the anger of the Lord burned against them, and He set out.
10 (Dt 24:9; 2Ki 5:27) When the cloud went away from over the tabernacle,
Miriam became leprous as snow, and Aaron turned toward Miriam
and saw that she was leprous.
11 (2Sa 19:19; 24:10) Aaron said to Moses, "Alas, my lord, do not lay the
sin on us, which we have done foolishly, and which we have sinned.
12 Do not let her be as dead, who when he goes out of his mother's womb
half his flesh is eaten."
13 And Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, "O God, heal her, I pray!"
14 (Dt 25:9; Job 30:10) But the Lord said to Moses,
"If her father had but spit in her face, would she not be ashamed seven days?
Let her be shut out of the camp seven days,
and afterward she may be received again."
15 Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days,
and the people did not set out until Miriam was brought in again.
16 (Nu 11:35; 10:12) Afterward the people set out from Hazeroth
and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.
(Never anger the Lord foolishly)
NUMBERS 13
Spying in Canaan
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 (Nu 32:8; Dt 1:22-25) "Send men that they may explore the land of Canaan,
which I am giving to the children of Israel. Of every tribe of their fathers
you will send a man, each one a chief among them."
3 (Nu 12:16; 32:8) And Moses sent them from the Wilderness of Paran according
to the Lord. All those men were heads of the children of Israel.
4 These were their names:
of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zakkur;
5 of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori;
6 (Nu 14:6; 13:30) of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh;
7 of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph;
8 (Ex 24:13; Nu 11:28) of the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun;
9 of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu;
10 of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi;
11 of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh,
Gaddi the son of Susi;
12 of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli;
13 of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael;
14 of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi;
15 of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Maki.
16 (Nu 13:8) These are the names of the men whom Moses
sent to explore the land. And Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
17 (Ge 12:9; Jdg 1:9) Moses sent them to explore the land of Canaan
and said to them, "Go up to this southland, and go up into the mountain.
18 And see what the land is, and the people that dwell in it,
whether they are strong or weak, few or many;
19 and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad,
and what cities are that they dwell in, whether in tents,
or in fortifications;
20 (Dt 31:23; Ne 9:25) and what the land is, whether it is fat or lean,
whether there is wood in it or not. And you be courageous and bring
some of the fruit of the land." Now the time was the time
of the first ripe grapes.
21 (Nu 20:1; 33:36) So they went up and explored the land
from the Wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near Lebo Hamath.
22 (Ps 78:12; 78:43) They went up by the Negev and came to Hebron
where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were
(now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt).
23 (Nu 32:9; 13:24) And they came to the Valley of Eshkol,
and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes,
and they carried it on a pole between two of them,
and they brought some of the pomegranates and of the figs.
24The place was called the Valley of Eshkol because of the cluster
of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from there.
25 They returned from exploring the land after forty days.
The Spies' Report
26 (Nu 32:8; 20:1) And they returned and came to Moses and to Aaron
and to all the assembly of the children of Israel,
to the Wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh, and brought back word to them
and to the entire assembly and showed them the fruit of the land.
27 (Ex 3:8; 3:17) They reported to him and said, "We came to the land
where you sent us, and surely it flows with milk and honey,
and this is the fruit of it.
28 (Dt 1:28; 9:1-2) However, the people are strong that dwell in the land,
and the cities are fortified and very great, and also we saw the children
of Anak there.
29 (Nu 14:43) The Amalekites dwell in the land of the Negev,
and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell
in the mountains, and the Canaanites dwell by the sea
and by the edge of the Jordan."
30 (Nu 14:24) Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said,
"Let us go up at once and possess it, for we are able to overcome it."
31 (Dt 1:28; Jos 14:8) But the men that went up with him said,
"We are not able to go up against the people
because they are stronger than we."
32 (Nu 14:36-37; Am 2:9) They gave the children of Israel
a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying,
"The land through which we have gone as spies is a land
that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom
we saw in it are men of great stature.
33 (Ge 6:4; Dt 1:28) And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak,
which come from the giants, and in our eyes we were like grasshoppers,
and so we were in their eyes."
(Why give such a faithless report when you in the Lord's hands?)
Our Daily Bread for 28 Feb 2021

entitled New Every Morning
Lamentations 3:19-26
19 (La 3:5; 3:15) Remember my affliction and my misery,
the wormwood and the gall.
20 (Ps 42:5-6; 42:11) Surely my soul remembers
and is humbled within me.
21 (Ps 130:7) But this I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
22 (Mal 3:6; Ps 78:38) It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed;
His compassions do not fail.
23 (Zep 3:5; Ps 36:5) They are new every morning;
great is Your faithfulness.
24 (Ps 16:5; 73:26) "The Lord is my portion," says my soul,
"therefore I will hope in Him."
25 (Isa 25:9; 30:18) The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,
to the soul who seeks Him.
26 (Ps 37:7; 130:5) It is good that a man should wait quietly
for the salvation of the Lord.
My brother Paul grew up battling severe epilepsy, and when he entered
his teenage years it became even worse. Nighttime was excruciating
for him and my parents, as he'd experience continuous seizures
for often more than six hours at a time. Doctors couldn't find
a treatment that would alleviate the symptoms while also keeping
him conscious for at least part of the day.
My parents cried out in prayer: "God, oh God, help us!"
Although their emotions were battered and their bodies exhausted,
Paul and my parents received enough strength from God for each new day.
In addition, my parents found comfort in the words of the Bible,
including the book of Lamentations. Here Jeremiah voiced his grief
over the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians,
remembering "the bitterness and the gall" (3:19).
Yet Jeremiah didn't lose hope. He called to mind the mercies of God,
that His compassions "are new every morning" (v. 23). So too did my parents.
Whatever you're facing, know that God is faithful every morning. He renews
our strength day by day and gives us hope. And sometimes, as with my family,
He brings relief. After several years, a new medication became available that
stopped Paul's continuous nighttime seizures, giving my family restorative
sleep and hope for the future.
When our souls are downcast within us (v. 20),
may we call to mind the promises of God that His mercies are new every morning.

Reflect & Pray
How has God sustained you through the trials you’ve faced?
How could you support someone who’s enduring a challenging time?
God, Your love will never leave me. When I feel spent and without hope,
remind me of Your mercies and compassion.

Week 4 - The Blessings of Grace Day 1 - The Joy of Confessing Christ
Romans 10:9-10 9 (Lk 12:8; Php 2:11)that if you confess with your mouth
Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from
the dead, you will be saved,
10 for with the heart one believes unto righteousness,
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation
Teena, a college freshman, has just committed her life to Christ,
but she was apprehensive about telling anyone - until Bill appeared
on the scene. He plunked his coffee cup down on the table and smiled.
"I heard something exciting happened to you yesterday, Teena"
"Yeah", Teena paused and looked around, as if seeking an escape route.
"I , uh, well, I did it"
"Did what?"
"Well, I, ah, gave my life to God."
"That's wonderful!" Bill exclaimed.
He was still talking with Teena and encouraging he in her decision
when Maria walked by.
"Maria!" Bill called. "Teena wants to tell you something!"
Teena gasped , open-mouthed, then stammered,
" I - I committed my life to Christ."
Maria , similarly enthuasiatic, encouraged Teena in her commitment,
and within half an hour Teena was stopping her friends to tell them,
"Guess what? I've become a Christian! I belng to Jesus now!"
Teena had already surrendered her heart to Christ.
But when she confessed her decision aloud to others,
the truth of that transformation was confirmed by her.
Many of us have been raised to believe that 'faith is a private matter',
not to be discussed in polite company. Yet Paul makes clear the connection
between heart commitment and verbal confession. Just as my love for family
and friends deepens as I tell them I love them, so a person's love
for Christ is confirmed and stabilised by speaking of that commitment to others.
Application
a) Have I been reluctant to tell others of my faith in Christ? Why?
b) What happens within me when I do tell others of my love for the Lord?
4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland
Exodus 3:7-8
7 (Ps 106:44; Ex 2:23-25)The Lord said,
"I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt
and have heard their cry on account of their taskmasters,
for I know their sorrows.
8 (Ge 50:24; 15:18-21; Ex 13:5) Therefore, I have come down
to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians,
and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land,
to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of
the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites,
the Hivites, and the Jebusites."
5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:
When you are lonely
PSALMS 23
A Psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters.
3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) He restores my soul;
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.
4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
they comfort me.
5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup runs over.
6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8-9) Surely goodness and mercy shall followme
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
The Lord's Prayer
Matthew 6:9-13
9 "Therefore pray in this manner:
Our Father who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your name.
10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;
Your will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.
12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."
6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)
Alberta
Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta
Alberta 2015 population 4121700
est Muslim Population 195240
CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton
It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .
Alberta may have a total as hihg as 195240 today.
Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's
become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.
Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the legrest group
coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries
such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.
Muslims are coming to faith in JEsus! They overcome huge spiritual,
emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still
continue, especially in growing in discpleship. They often fell lost in our
Western congreations, and euqally lost trying to find a church body with whom
they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.
Please join us in praying for:
- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.
- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to
Muslim-background believers.
- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially
in their faith and the Church.
- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their
not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.
- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.
- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim
in these growing Muslim population centres.

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020
Under the Keep Praying page
When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month
and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days
of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that
usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,
of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be
decorated and festivals will be held.
For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the
distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of
Islam.
You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"
Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you
know, and Muslims around the world:
- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions
in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about
unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such
movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three
decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim
relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.
Acts 2:12-17 : 17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,
"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Even on My menservants and maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below:
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]
Footnotes
Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.
- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective
discipleship movements among Muslim people.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for
Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.
Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a
hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the
house."
Ideas for prayer
- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving
Christ among Muslim people -
Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims
throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!
My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .

NUMBERS 11 - 13
NUMBERS 11
Complaints in the Desert
1 (Lev 10:2; Nu 16:35) Now when the people complained openly before the Lord,
the Lord heard, and His anger burned. Then the fire of the Lord burned among
them and consumed the outskirts of the camp.
2 (Nu 21:7; 16:45-48) And the people cried out to Moses, and Moses prayed
to the Lord, and the fire was quenched.
3 (Dt 9:22) He called the name of the place Taberah
because the fire of the Lord burned among them.
4 (Ex 12:38; 1Co 10:6) The mixed multitude that was among them lusted,
and the children of Israel wept again and said,
"Who will give us meat to eat?
5 (Ex 16:3) We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for free,
the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic.
6 (Nu 21:5) But now our life is dried up. There is nothing at all except
this manna before our eyes."
7 (Ex 16:31; Ge 2:12) The manna was as coriander seed,
and it looked like bdellium.
8 (Ex 16:16-18; 16:31) The people went about and gathered it,
and ground it in mills or beat it in a mortar, and boiled it in pots,
and made cakes of it, and the taste of
it was like the taste of cakes baked in oil.
9 (Ex 16:13-14) When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna fell on it.
10 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in
the opening of his tent, and the anger of the Lord burned greatly.
Moses was also displeased.
11 (Dt 1:12) Moses said to the Lord, "Why have You hurt Your servant?
And why have I not found favor in Your eyes, that You lay the burden
of all this people on me?
12 (Ex 13:5; Isa 49:23) Have I conceived all this people? Have I given
them birth, that You should say to me, 'Carry them in your bosom, as a
nurse bears the nursing child,' to the land which You swore to their fathers?
13 (Mt 15:33; Mk 8:4) Where am I to get meat to give to all these people?
For they weep to me, saying, 'Give us meat, that we may eat.'
14 (Ex 18:18) I am not able to bear all these people alone,
because the burden is too heavy for me.
15 (1Ki 19:4; Jnh 4:3) If You do this to me, please kill me at once,
if I have found favor in Your eyes, and do not let me see my misery."
The Seventy Elders
16 (Ex 24:1; 24:9) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Gather to Me seventy men
of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people,
and officers over them, and bring them to the tent of meeting,
that they may take a stand there with you.
17 (Nu 11:25; 1Sa 10:6) And I will come down, and I will speak with you there,
and I will take of the Spirit which is on you and will put it on them,
and they will bear the burden of the people with you, and you will not bear
it by yourself.
18 (Ex 19:10; Nu 11:1) "And say to the people: Consecrate yourselves
for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat, for you have wept in the hearing
of the Lord, saying, 'Who will give us meat to eat?
For it was better for us in Egypt.'
Therefore the Lord will give you meat, and you shall eat.
19 You shall eat, not one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days,
or twenty days,
20 (Ps 106:15; Nu 21:5) but a whole month, until it comes out
at your nostrils, and it will be nauseating to you because
you rejected the Lord who is among you and have wept before Him,
saying, 'Why did we come out of Egypt?' "
21 (Ex 12:37; 38:26) And Moses said, "The people I am with number
600000 foot soldiers, and You have said,
'I will give them meat that they may eat a whole month.'
22 (Mt 15:33) Will the flocks and the herds be slaughtered for them,
to satisfy them? Or will all the fish of the sea be gathered together
for them, to satisfy them?"
23 (Isa 50:2; 59:1) And the Lord said to Moses,
"Is the hand of the Lord shortened? Now you will see
if My word will happen to you or not."
24 (Nu 11:16) Moses went out, and he spoke to the people the words
of the Lord and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people
and set them around the tabernacle.
25 (Nu 11:17; 12:5; 1Sa 10:10) And the Lord came down in a cloud,
and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him,
and gave it to the seventy elders, and when the Spirit rested on them,
they prophesied, but did not do it again.
26 (1Sa 20:26; Jer 36:5) But two men remained in the camp.
The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other, Medad.
And the Spirit rested on them. They were among those listed,
but they had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp.
27 And a young man ran and told Moses and said,
"Eldad and Medad prophesy in the camp."
28 Then Joshua the son of Nun, the assistant of Moses from his youth,
answered and said, "My lord Moses, forbid them."
29 (1Co 14:5) Moses said to him, "Are you jealous for my sake?
Oh, that all the people of the Lord were prophets,
and that the Lord would put His Spirit upon them!"
30 And Moses returned to the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
The Lord Sends Quail
31 (Ex 16:13; Ps 105:40) Now a wind from the Lord started up,
and it swept quail from the sea and let them fall beside the camp,
about a day's journey on this side and a day's journey on the other side,
around the camp, and about two cubits (About 3 feet, or 90 centimeters.
above the ground.)
32 (Eze 45:11; Ex 16:36) And the people stayed up all that day, all night,
and all the next day, and gathered the quail. Those who gathered least
gathered ten homers. (Likely about 1 3/4 tons, or 1.6 metric tons.)
And they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.
33 (Ps 78:30-31; Nu 16:49) While the meat was between their teeth,
before it was chewed, the anger of the Lord burned against the people,
and the Lord struck the people with a very great slaughter.
34 (Dt 9:22) And he called the name of that place Kibroth Hattaavah
because there they buried the people who had the craving.
35 (Nu 33:17; 12:16) The people journeyed from Kibroth Hattaavah
to Hazeroth, and they camped at Hazeroth.
(Why whine to your Saviour? Trust in him to provide your needs.)
NUMBERS 12
Miriam and Aaron Oppose Moses
1 (Ex 2:21) And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because
of the Cushite woman whom he married, for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 (Nu 11:1; 16:3) They said, "Has the Lord spoken only by Moses?
Has He not spoken also by us?" And the Lord heard it.
3 (Mt 11:29) (Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all the men
on the face of the earth.)
4 And the Lord spoke at once to Moses and to Aaron and to Miriam,
"Come out, you three, to the tent of meeting." And those three came out.
5 (Nu 11:25; Ex 34:5) The Lord came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood
in the opening of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam,
and they both came forward.
6 (Ge 46:2; 1Ki 3:5) He said, "Hear now My word.
If there is a prophet among you,
I the Lord will make Myself known to him in a vision,
and I will speak to him in a dream.
7 (Ps 105:26) Not so with My servant Moses;
he is entrusted with all My house.
8 (Dt 34:10; Ex 24:10–11) Face to face I speak with him clearly,
and not in riddles,
and the likeness of the Lord will he behold.
Then why were you not afraid
to speak against My servant, against Moses?"
9 And the anger of the Lord burned against them, and He set out.
10 (Dt 24:9; 2Ki 5:27) When the cloud went away from over the tabernacle,
Miriam became leprous as snow, and Aaron turned toward Miriam
and saw that she was leprous.
11 (2Sa 19:19; 24:10) Aaron said to Moses, "Alas, my lord, do not lay the
sin on us, which we have done foolishly, and which we have sinned.
12 Do not let her be as dead, who when he goes out of his mother's womb
half his flesh is eaten."
13 And Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, "O God, heal her, I pray!"
14 (Dt 25:9; Job 30:10) But the Lord said to Moses,
"If her father had but spit in her face, would she not be ashamed seven days?
Let her be shut out of the camp seven days,
and afterward she may be received again."
15 Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days,
and the people did not set out until Miriam was brought in again.
16 (Nu 11:35; 10:12) Afterward the people set out from Hazeroth
and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.
(Never anger the Lord foolishly)
NUMBERS 13
Spying in Canaan
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 (Nu 32:8; Dt 1:22-25) "Send men that they may explore the land of Canaan,
which I am giving to the children of Israel. Of every tribe of their fathers
you will send a man, each one a chief among them."
3 (Nu 12:16; 32:8) And Moses sent them from the Wilderness of Paran according
to the Lord. All those men were heads of the children of Israel.
4 These were their names:
of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zakkur;
5 of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori;
6 (Nu 14:6; 13:30) of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh;
7 of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph;
8 (Ex 24:13; Nu 11:28) of the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Nun;
9 of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu;
10 of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi;
11 of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh,
Gaddi the son of Susi;
12 of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli;
13 of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael;
14 of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi;
15 of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Maki.
16 (Nu 13:8) These are the names of the men whom Moses
sent to explore the land. And Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun Joshua.
17 (Ge 12:9; Jdg 1:9) Moses sent them to explore the land of Canaan
and said to them, "Go up to this southland, and go up into the mountain.
18 And see what the land is, and the people that dwell in it,
whether they are strong or weak, few or many;
19 and what the land is that they dwell in, whether it is good or bad,
and what cities are that they dwell in, whether in tents,
or in fortifications;
20 (Dt 31:23; Ne 9:25) and what the land is, whether it is fat or lean,
whether there is wood in it or not. And you be courageous and bring
some of the fruit of the land." Now the time was the time
of the first ripe grapes.
21 (Nu 20:1; 33:36) So they went up and explored the land
from the Wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near Lebo Hamath.
22 (Ps 78:12; 78:43) They went up by the Negev and came to Hebron
where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were
(now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt).
23 (Nu 32:9; 13:24) And they came to the Valley of Eshkol,
and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes,
and they carried it on a pole between two of them,
and they brought some of the pomegranates and of the figs.
24The place was called the Valley of Eshkol because of the cluster
of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from there.
25 They returned from exploring the land after forty days.
The Spies' Report
26 (Nu 32:8; 20:1) And they returned and came to Moses and to Aaron
and to all the assembly of the children of Israel,
to the Wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh, and brought back word to them
and to the entire assembly and showed them the fruit of the land.
27 (Ex 3:8; 3:17) They reported to him and said, "We came to the land
where you sent us, and surely it flows with milk and honey,
and this is the fruit of it.
28 (Dt 1:28; 9:1-2) However, the people are strong that dwell in the land,
and the cities are fortified and very great, and also we saw the children
of Anak there.
29 (Nu 14:43) The Amalekites dwell in the land of the Negev,
and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell
in the mountains, and the Canaanites dwell by the sea
and by the edge of the Jordan."
30 (Nu 14:24) Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said,
"Let us go up at once and possess it, for we are able to overcome it."
31 (Dt 1:28; Jos 14:8) But the men that went up with him said,
"We are not able to go up against the people
because they are stronger than we."
32 (Nu 14:36-37; Am 2:9) They gave the children of Israel
a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying,
"The land through which we have gone as spies is a land
that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom
we saw in it are men of great stature.
33 (Ge 6:4; Dt 1:28) And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak,
which come from the giants, and in our eyes we were like grasshoppers,
and so we were in their eyes."

entitled New Every Morning
Lamentations 3:19-26
19 (La 3:5; 3:15) Remember my affliction and my misery,
the wormwood and the gall.
20 (Ps 42:5-6; 42:11) Surely my soul remembers
and is humbled within me.
21 (Ps 130:7) But this I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
22 (Mal 3:6; Ps 78:38) It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed;
His compassions do not fail.
23 (Zep 3:5; Ps 36:5) They are new every morning;
great is Your faithfulness.
24 (Ps 16:5; 73:26) "The Lord is my portion," says my soul,
"therefore I will hope in Him."
25 (Isa 25:9; 30:18) The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,
to the soul who seeks Him.
26 (Ps 37:7; 130:5) It is good that a man should wait quietly
for the salvation of the Lord.
My brother Paul grew up battling severe epilepsy, and when he entered
his teenage years it became even worse. Nighttime was excruciating
for him and my parents, as he'd experience continuous seizures
for often more than six hours at a time. Doctors couldn't find
a treatment that would alleviate the symptoms while also keeping
him conscious for at least part of the day.
My parents cried out in prayer: "God, oh God, help us!"
Although their emotions were battered and their bodies exhausted,
Paul and my parents received enough strength from God for each new day.
In addition, my parents found comfort in the words of the Bible,
including the book of Lamentations. Here Jeremiah voiced his grief
over the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians,
remembering "the bitterness and the gall" (3:19).
Yet Jeremiah didn't lose hope. He called to mind the mercies of God,
that His compassions "are new every morning" (v. 23). So too did my parents.
Whatever you're facing, know that God is faithful every morning. He renews
our strength day by day and gives us hope. And sometimes, as with my family,
He brings relief. After several years, a new medication became available that
stopped Paul's continuous nighttime seizures, giving my family restorative
sleep and hope for the future.
When our souls are downcast within us (v. 20),
may we call to mind the promises of God that His mercies are new every morning.

Reflect & Pray
How has God sustained you through the trials you’ve faced?
How could you support someone who’s enduring a challenging time?
God, Your love will never leave me. When I feel spent and without hope,
remind me of Your mercies and compassion.

Week 4 - The Blessings of Grace Day 1 - The Joy of Confessing Christ
Romans 10:9-10 9 (Lk 12:8; Php 2:11)that if you confess with your mouth
Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from
the dead, you will be saved,
10 for with the heart one believes unto righteousness,
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation
Teena, a college freshman, has just committed her life to Christ,
but she was apprehensive about telling anyone - until Bill appeared
on the scene. He plunked his coffee cup down on the table and smiled.
"I heard something exciting happened to you yesterday, Teena"
"Yeah", Teena paused and looked around, as if seeking an escape route.
"I , uh, well, I did it"
"Did what?"
"Well, I, ah, gave my life to God."
"That's wonderful!" Bill exclaimed.
He was still talking with Teena and encouraging he in her decision
when Maria walked by.
"Maria!" Bill called. "Teena wants to tell you something!"
Teena gasped , open-mouthed, then stammered,
" I - I committed my life to Christ."
Maria , similarly enthuasiatic, encouraged Teena in her commitment,
and within half an hour Teena was stopping her friends to tell them,
"Guess what? I've become a Christian! I belng to Jesus now!"
Teena had already surrendered her heart to Christ.
But when she confessed her decision aloud to others,
the truth of that transformation was confirmed by her.
Many of us have been raised to believe that 'faith is a private matter',
not to be discussed in polite company. Yet Paul makes clear the connection
between heart commitment and verbal confession. Just as my love for family
and friends deepens as I tell them I love them, so a person's love
for Christ is confirmed and stabilised by speaking of that commitment to others.
Application
a) Have I been reluctant to tell others of my faith in Christ? Why?
b) What happens within me when I do tell others of my love for the Lord?
4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland
Exodus 3:7-8
7 (Ps 106:44; Ex 2:23-25)The Lord said,
"I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt
and have heard their cry on account of their taskmasters,
for I know their sorrows.
8 (Ge 50:24; 15:18-21; Ex 13:5) Therefore, I have come down
to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians,
and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land,
to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of
the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites,
the Hivites, and the Jebusites."

When you are lonely
PSALMS 23
A Psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters.
3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) He restores my soul;
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.
4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
they comfort me.
5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup runs over.

all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.

6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)
Alberta
Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta
Alberta 2015 population 4121700
est Muslim Population 195240
CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton
It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .
Alberta may have a total as hihg as 195240 today.
Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's
become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.
Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the legrest group
coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries
such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.
Muslims are coming to faith in JEsus! They overcome huge spiritual,
emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still
continue, especially in growing in discpleship. They often fell lost in our
Western congreations, and euqally lost trying to find a church body with whom
they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.
Please join us in praying for:
- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.
- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to
Muslim-background believers.
- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially
in their faith and the Church.
- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their
not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.
- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.
- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim
in these growing Muslim population centres.

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020
Under the Keep Praying page
When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month
and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days
of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that
usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,
of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be
decorated and festivals will be held.
For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the
distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of
Islam.
You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"
Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you
know, and Muslims around the world:
- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions
in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about
unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such
movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three
decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim
relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.
Acts 2:12-17 : 17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,
"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Even on My menservants and maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below:
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]
Footnotes
Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.
- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective
discipleship movements among Muslim people.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for
Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.
Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a
hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the
house."
Ideas for prayer
- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving
Christ among Muslim people -
Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims
throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!
My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .
