Key verses and Key Chapter
Numbers 14:22 "because all these men who
have seen My glory and the signs which I did in
Egypt and in the wilderness, and have put Me to
the test now these ten times, and have not
heeded My voice, 23 "they certainly shall not
see the land of which I swore to their fathers,
nor shall any of those who rejected Me see it.
Numbers 14:34 'According to the number of the
days in which you spied out the land, forty days,
for each day you shall bear your guilt one year,
namely forty years, and you shall know My
rejection.
Hebrews 3:7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you will
hear His voice, 8 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, In
the day of trial in the wilderness, 9 Where your fathers tested
Me, tried Me, And saw My works forty years. 10 Therefore I was
angry with that generation, And said, 'They always go astray in
their heart, And they have not known My ways.' 11 So I swore in
My wrath, 'They shall not enter My rest.' " 12 Beware, brethren,
lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing
from the living God; 13 but exhort one another daily, while it is
called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the
deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if
we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, 15
while it is said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden
your hearts as in the rebellion." 16 For who, having heard,
rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by
Moses? 17 Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not
with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness? 18
And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but
to those who did not obey? 19 So we see that they could not
enter in because of unbelief.
1 Corinthians 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be
unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed
through the sea, 2 all were baptized into Moses in the cloud
and in the sea, 3 all ate the same spiritual food, 4 and all
drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual
Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ. 5 But with
most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were
scattered in the wilderness. 6 Now these things became our
examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things
as they also lusted. 7 And do not become idolaters as were
some of them. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and
drink, and rose up to play." 8 Nor let us commit sexual
immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three
thousand fell; 9 nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also
tempted, and were destroyed by serpents; 10 nor complain, as
some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the
destroyer. 11 Now all these things happened to them as
examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon
whom the ends of the ages have come. 12 Therefore let him
who thinks he stands take heed less he falls.

3 more high points
1. The Nazarite vow (Num. 6)
Amos 2:11 I raised up some of your sons as
prophets, And some of your young men as
Nazirites. Is it not so, O you children of
Israel?" Says the LORD. 12 "But you gave the
Nazirites wine to drink, And commanded the
prophets saying, 'Do not prophesy!'
2. Grasshopper complex
Numbers 13:33 "There we saw the giants
(the descendants of Anak came from the
giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our
own sight, and so we were in their sight."
Joshua 2: 8 Now before they lay down, she came
up to them on the roof, 9 and said to the men: "I
know that the LORD has given you the land, that
the terror of you has fallen on us, and that all the
inhabitants of the land are fainthearted because
of you. 10 "For we have heard how the LORD
dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when
you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the
two kings of the Amorites who were on the other
side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you
utterly destroyed. 11 "And as soon as we heard
these things, our hearts melted; neither did there
remain any more courage in anyone because of
you, for the LORD your God, He is God in heaven
above and on earth beneath.
Hebrews 10:35 Therefore do not cast away
your confidence, which has great reward.
Philippians 4:11 Not that I speak in regard to
need, for I have learned in whatever state I
am, to be content: 12 I know how to be
abased, and I know how to abound.
Everywhere and in all things I have learned
both to be full and to be hungry, both to
abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all
things through Christ who strengthens me.
Hebrews 4:14- Seeing then that we have a
great High Priest who has passed through the
heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast
our confession. 15 For we do not have a High
Priest who cannot sympathize with our
weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as
we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore
come boldly to the throne of grace, that we
may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time
of need.
3. A beautiful passage
Numbers 6:24 "The LORD bless you and keep
you; 25 The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you; 26 The LORD lift up His
countenance upon you, And give you peace." ' 27
"So they shall put My name on the children of
Israel, and I will bless them.“
The two fold message from the book of Numbers.
1 Gods people are saved to serve
2 Gods people must beware of unbelief
