Numbers 15:22-41
Unintentionally fail to keep any of these commands and the community being not aware of it. A young bull for a burnt offering as aroma pleasing to the Lord along with its grain offering and drink offering.
If just one person sins unintentionally: a year-old female goat for a sin offering.
But anyone who sins defiantly, that person must be cut off from his people.
Make tassels on the corners of your garments with a blue cord on each tassel. So you will remember all the commands of the Lord, that you may obey them.
The seriousness of sabbath-breaking. It was not just the man's disobedience but his arrogance which put him outside the community of God's covenant people.
Why?
Not intentionally sin could be atonement through burnt offering.
The border of tassels is to remind forgetful Israel of God and his commands.
Blue cord on each tassel reminds them remember obey the commands that the Lord says to them.
How?
What can let me remember to obey the commands of the Lord, reading His word everyday and pray to the Lord, let the Holy Spirit help me walk out in my daily life.
Specific matter can remind us to do something, but it could not be a custom or just a symbol even becomes an idol in our daily life.

The instructions that follow are for 'when you enter the land'. It may be delayed, but it will surely happen!
Offer burnt offering with different kind of animal should offer correspondent grand offering. It depends on his position and capability of the offering.
Before Isrealite enter the promised land they had not any ground meal can offer.
A ephan = 20 liters, a hin = 4 liters. So the grand offering is large volume, it means the prosperity of groud product of Canaan will be. If you have more than offer more offering to the Lord. All of those gain are blessed from the Lord.

Lession of Obey
Numbers 14:26-45
Forty years - one year for each of the torty days you explore the land- you will suffer for your sins and know what it is like to have me against you.
Everyone twenty years old or more who was counted in the census and who has grumbled agint the Lord will fall in this desert, except Caleb and Joshua.
Moses said, "Why are you disobeying the Lord's command? DO not go up, because the Lord is not with you."
Why?
People listened the word of God in their enthusiasm. Serve the Lord should be with all our heart, all of mind and all of strength.
Now his plea involves him in sharing their sentene with them. Instead of going north in Canaan God commands them to go east to Aqaba. But it takes a crushing defeat to mae the people take notice.
How?
Obey the Lord is following his word without complain and enjoy to do it, for He is with us and do not afraid.

Good servant: he has a different spirit and follows God wholeheartedly
Numbers 14:1-25
Joshua & Caleb The people of the community
If the Lord is pleased with us, he will lead Why the Lord bringing us to this land
us into that land only to let us fall by the sword?
Their protection is gone, but the Lord is Our wives and children will be taken
with us. Do not be afraid of them. as plunder. We should choose a leader and go back to Egypt.
How long will these people treat me with contempt? How long will they refuse to believe me, in spite of all the miraculous signs I have performed among them?
The Lord is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation.
The Lord forgiven them the sin, but the punishment is come upon these people. Not one of the men who saw my glory and the miraculous signs I performed in Egypt and in the desert will ever see the land I promised on oath to their forefathers.
Caleb has a different spirit and follows God wholeheartedly. He will get into the land he went to.
Within sight of the goal, a whole generation cut itself off from all that was promised.
Why?
Fear and horrible information has power of infection among people when they have not faith and acknowledge.
Moses's prayers at this point is staggering. Only God's intervention has saved him from death by stoning. Moses pleading for the life of the stubborn nation that cause him nothing but trouble.
Time and time again Moses stands between Israel and utter destruction.
Good servant of the Lord has a different spirit and follows God wholeheartedly. Different spirit is honest and despite of circumstances, his heart is always focus on the Lord.
Good servant as Moses stand between his people and utter destruction.
How?
O Lord, please give me the heart and faith to be a good servant in present of you. I know this is a difficult way, if the Lord is please with me I can do it.

Do our part and the Lord does others we lacked
Numbers 13:1-33
Twelve leaders from each tribe sent to explore the land of Canaan which the Lord is giving to the Israelites.
At end of forty days they returned from exploring the land and carried a branch bearing a single cluster of grapes. Two of them carried it on a pole between them, along with some pomegranates and figs.
They reported to Moses and Aaron and to the whole assembly, the land does flow with milk and honey, but the people who live there are powerful, and the cities are fortified and very large.
Caleb said, We could go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it.
But the men who had gone up with him said,' We can't attack those people; they are stronger than we are, we seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we liked the same to them.
Why?
These 12 leaders agreed that Canaan is very good land as God promised.
But 10 of them saw the people and their cities, they lose the courage, they do not have faith to go forward for the afraid their enemy.
Caleb had faith and believe they could take possession of the land.
The Lord has promised will certainly be truth.
Do we see the promise of the Lord or the difficulty of the world. We understand the problems and difficulty of the promised land, but don't forget that the God is powerful over all of these.
From Deuteronomy 1:19-25 it seems plain that Moses intended to go straight on into the promised land at this point: it was the people's suggestion that they should send spies ahead.
Two man of faith put the true interpretation on the facts, but the people listened to the ten prophets of doom厄運 with their tales of giants and grasshoppers.
Within sight of the goal,a whole generation cut itself off goal that was promised.
How?
No matter do know or don't know the situation of the goal, faithful perspective is more important, for the Lord is with us. Do our part and the Lord will do others we lacked.

Faithful in all God's house, the Moses
Numbers 12:1-16
Miriam and Aaron began against Moses, they asked 'Has the Lord spoken ny thourgh Moses? Hasn't he also spoken through us? They challenged the position of Moses before the Lord. The Lord were dealing with these matter.
The Lord said to them, Moses is his servant, he is faithful in all God's house, the Lord speak to Moses face to face, do not like prophet reveal to them in vision or speak to them in dreams.
After the Lord spoke to them, Miriam - leprous, like snow. Aaron trun to Moses,'Please , my lord, do not hold against us the sin we have so foolishly committed.' and asked restore Miriam skin, so Moses asked the Lord to heal her.
Why?
There is quarrel among God's servants , the Lord will deals and judge it right away. So quarrel among church should be processed right away in God's way.
Sinner will be punished and be healed through grace of the Lord when he repented and confessed his sins.
The real bone contection is not Moses's wife but his position.
As Misiam is the one to be punished, presumably she was the instigator始作俑者. Moses is silent, but God's answer is a remarkable tribute to the man.
Aaron confess his sin and he was priest so he did not be published, Miriam was a pophet was respected among Israelite, she againsted Moses as insulted her father so she had to stay outside camp seven days until clean.
How?
Respect the servant of the Lord for they are chosen by the Lord and serve the Lord, if they has anything wrong the Lord will judge them, we have not the right to creticize them or judge them.

The attitude of my action before the Lord and men
Numbers 11:24-35
When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did not do so again.
Two men, whose names were listed amon the elders, but did not go out to the tend, yet the Spirit also rested on them and they prophesied in the camp. The Spirit has the power over the space.
Moses wishes that all the Lord's people were prophets and that the Lord would put his Spirit on them.
The Lord struck them with a sever plague, because they buries the people who had craved other food.
10 Homers: a donkey load, thousand kilogrammers, is the measure of their gluttony.
Why?
Moses displays a remarkable attitude in a leader - power without a streak of corruption.
When the Sprit rested on one who will shows the sign of Spirit such as prophesy or others.
Not only the sign of Spirit but more important is the attitude of a leader with power but without steak of corruption.
How?
I wish the Holy Spirit may rest on me, but more important is the attitude of my action before the Lord and men.
