Numbers: The Lord goes with us

by She Reads Truth

The book of Numbers is a travelog that spans nearly forty years—an account bookended by hope. After a year at Mount Sinai following their exodus from slavery in Egypt, the people of Israel were ready to follow God toward the promised land of Canaan. As they set out on the journey, God’s faithfulness was at the forefront of their minds. But they quickly began to doubt, veer off course, and plummet into outright rebellion. Numbers documents how this first generation spent the rest of their days in the wilderness. It ends with a new generation renewing their faith and pledge to God on the plains of Moab, with the promised land in sight once again. In this five-week study, we will walk through the highs and lows of Israel’s wilderness journey. Along the way, we’ll be reminded that even when we falter and fail, God’s faithfulness remains true at every step.

This Numbers Bible Study was amazing! I learned so much about the Israelites’ Journey in the wilderness and how God continually shows up for His people. Yes, He holds us accountable and there are consequences for our sin, but there is deep love and affection that He has for us. Thank you She Reads Truth for another great study!

“The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in faithful love, forgiving iniquity and rebellion. But he will not leave the guilty unpunished, bringing the consequences of the father’s iniquity on the children to the third and fourth generation.”
-Numbers 14:18

I can’t recall ever reading through the book of Numbers. What a journey! And I’m still flabbergasted that I never heard the story of the talking donkey before! I love learning new things about scripture.
