“And keep you: To be kept by the Lord is blessing indeed. Some are kept by their own sin and desire, some are kept by idolatry and greed, and others are kept by their own bitterness and anger. But to be kept by the Lord insures life, peace, and success.” (Numbers 6:24–26)
“It wasn’t only Phinehas’ obedience God noticed. He was also noticed because he was zealous with My zeal among them. Phinehas was passionate about the things God was passionate about, and in this respect, he was a man after God’s own heart.” (Numbers 25:10–13)
“We should pray as if life and death, heaven and hell, would be decided by our prayers!” (Numbers 14:20)
“one of anger and contempt for the people of God, with a bitter heart” (Numbers 20:9–11)
“Unbelief often presents itself as being ‘factual’ or ‘practical’ or ‘down to earth.’ Yet, the most factual, practical, and down to earth thing we can to is trust the word of the living God. Their unbelief was not according to the facts, but despite the facts.” (Numbers 13:31–33)
