  Numbers chapter 10. Let us pray.
• 0:04
  Our Father, who is in heaven, holy is your name.
• 0:11
  May we keep your name Holy Father forever.
• 0:16
  Help us to honor it and lift it up high is the name above all
• 0:20
  names. Thank you God for your son Jesus
• 0:26
  Christ. Thank you God, for the
• 0:28
  indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Thank you God, that you are the
• 0:32
  Father of all. We honor you, respect you, we
• 0:36
  love you. God, I pray that your Kingdom
• 0:40
  and your will will be done here on this earth just as it is
• 0:43
  there. Help us not to build up our own
• 0:45
  Kingdom. Help us not to live selfishly.
• 0:47
  God, thank you for daily bread today, Lord, I pray that we'll
• 0:53
  munch and feast upon it. Or that it'll be devoured.
• 0:58
  God, it consumed and lived out and fleshed out.
• 1:02
  God, I pray you'll forgive us for all the times that we've got
• 1:08
  it wrong and missed the mark. God, I pray that you'll help us.
• 1:12
  Help us to receive forgiveness and to forgive ourselves and to
• 1:16
  extend forgiveness out infinitely to our brothers and
• 1:20
  sisters. God, I pray you'll keep us from
• 1:24
  the evil 1. Lord, put a divine hedge of
• 1:28
  protection around our houses and around our children, around our
• 1:31
  cars. Lord, I pray that we will not
• 1:35
  open the windows up, Lord, we'll shut them, God, and keep the
• 1:38
  roof on our house. Lord, help us not to be exposed.
• 1:42
  Lord, help us to get under the covering and to stay on the
• 1:45
  under the covering. Help us not to willfully disobey
• 1:49
  you. God, I pray that you will cast
• 1:54
  all of the demonic haunt into the judgment that you have
• 1:58
  awaiting for them. Yours is the Kingdom and the
• 2:03
  power and the glory forever and ever.
• 2:06
  It's in Jesus name I pray, Amen. Let's start in verse one.
• 2:13
  And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, To make you 2 trumpets
• 2:18
  of silver of a whole piece. Shall you make them, that you
• 2:22
  may use them for the calling of the assembly and for the
• 2:26
  journeying of the camps. So these two silver trumpets,
• 2:30
  they were to signify if they were to March, if they were to
• 2:33
  camp, if they were to go into battle, they were to signify
• 2:37
  festivals, They were to signify many different things here.
• 2:42
  And God wants them to be organized and ready for action.
• 2:47
  3 And when they shall blow with them, all, the assembly shall
• 2:50
  assemble themselves to you at the door of the Tabernacle of
• 2:54
  the congregation. For and if they blow but one
• 2:58
  trumpet, then the Princess, which are heads of the thousands
• 3:01
  of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.
• 3:03
  So look at how God is a God of order, and He knows how to get
• 3:07
  our attention and He knows how to get us to the door of the
• 3:10
  Tabernacle, friends. 5 And when you blow an alarm, then the
• 3:21
  camps that lie on the east part shall go forward, and when you
• 3:24
  blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the
• 3:28
  South side shall take their journey, and shall blow an alarm
• 3:31
  for their journeys. 7 But when the congregation is to be
• 3:35
  gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an
• 3:39
  alarm. 8 And the sons of Aaron and the priest shall blow with
• 3:43
  the trumpets, and they shall be to you for an ordinance forever
• 3:48
  throughout your generations. 9 And if you go to war.
• 4:00
  In your land against the enemy that opposes you, then you shall
• 4:04
  blow an alarm with the trumpets and you shall be remembered
• 4:07
  before the Lord your God, and you shall be saved from your
• 4:10
  enemies. So God here is promising them
• 4:13
  divine protection. So these trumpets here, these
• 4:17
  are very significant pieces to get all of the assembly together
• 4:22
  in the right form and fashion. 10 And then the day of your
• 4:26
  gladness, and then your solemn days, and in the beginnings of
• 4:30
  your months, you shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt
• 4:34
  offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace
• 4:37
  offerings that they may be to you for a memorial before your
• 4:42
  God. I am the Lord your God.
• 4:44
  So he's the one that gets to set the precedent and he's telling
• 4:48
  them to cast these pure silver trumpets.
• 4:51
  And he was telling them what to they were to be used for.
• 4:55
  And here you can see they're used for a myriad of different
• 4:59
  things. One of them could be very
• 5:01
  festive. One of them could be for a
• 5:03
  memorial and be somber. One of them could be for them to
• 5:07
  come together for a meeting. One could be to go to war
• 5:11
  friends. There was different trumpet
• 5:14
  blasts that signified what they were to do.
• 5:17
  What an amazing big brain God we serve who knows how to get our
• 5:22
  attention. 11 And it came to pass on the 20th day of the
• 5:28
  second month in the second year that the cloud was taken up from
• 5:32
  off the Tabernacle of the testimony.
• 5:34
  So here they got to put their faith into action and they got
• 5:37
  to actually flesh out what it is that God has told them to do.
• 5:41
  It's not enough for us us to have head knowledge.
• 5:45
  It's not enough for us to just know the things of the Bible.
• 5:49
  We actually have to put them into practice and flesh them
• 5:53
  out, friends. And God is a wonderful teacher
• 5:56
  to get our attention, to actually get us out of the
• 5:59
  classroom and out into the field. 12 And the children of
• 6:03
  Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai, and
• 6:08
  the cloud rested in the wilderness of Puran.
• 6:11
  So here you can see that the Israelites are passing the test.
• 6:15
  Every test that the Lord keeps throwing at them, they keep
• 6:18
  passing it. This radical obedience, that's
• 6:21
  going to be a a hard lesson in the coming chapters of how far
• 6:30
  they fall off from this place of obedience. 13 And they first
• 6:38
  took their journey according to the commandment of the Lord by
• 6:41
  the hand of Moses, 14 In the 1st place, when the standard of the
• 6:46
  camp of is of the children of Judah, according to their
• 6:50
  armies, and over his host was neshan and abemadab.
• 6:54
  So here you're going to get to see that this holy procession
• 6:59
  through the wilderness, and you're going to see how it is
• 7:02
  structured. And you see that God is a God of
• 7:04
  order. And this is not just a mob going
• 7:08
  through the desert. This is an army, a very
• 7:11
  respectable army is going to strike fear in all of the
• 7:16
  opposition of all of the enemies, of all the lands that
• 7:19
  they March through, because God has orchestrated and put them
• 7:24
  into rank and He's filed them. And here they have a semblance
• 7:29
  of a mighty army before God, that he is birthed from nothing.
• 7:38
  15 And over the host of the tribe of the children of
• 7:41
  Issachar was Nathaniel the son of Zuar. 16 And over, the host
• 7:45
  of the tribe of the children of Zebulum was Eliab, the son of
• 7:50
  Helan, and the Tabernacle was taken down, and the sons of
• 7:53
  Gershon and the sons of Murari set forward bearing the
• 7:57
  Tabernacle. So here you can see that the
• 8:00
  tribe of Judah has a prominent position out in the front.
• 8:03
  Then you could see that the Levitical tribe of Gershon and
• 8:08
  Murari, who had to set the temple up, once they got to
• 8:12
  where they were going, they needed to be out front.
• 8:15
  So it was already prepared by the time everybody else got
• 8:18
  there. They needed time to set it up.
• 8:22
  18 on the standard of the camp of Reuben, set forward according
• 8:25
  to their armies. And over his host was Elizer,
• 8:29
  the son of Shidur. 19 and over, the host of the tribe of the
• 8:33
  children of Simeon was Shammuyel, the son of
• 8:36
  Zoroshadai. 20 and over, the host of the tribe of the
• 8:40
  children of Gad was Elisaf, the son of Duel. 21 In the
• 8:44
  Kohathites set for ward bearing this sanctuary in the other did
• 8:48
  set up the Tabernacle against they came.
• 8:52
  So here you can see that there is this magnificent order to how
• 8:57
  God has structured everybody, and He knows who needs to get to
• 9:01
  camp 1st, and He knows how to protect those that are carrying
• 9:05
  the most honorable holy pieces. 22 In the standard of the camp
• 9:13
  of the children of Ephraim, set forward according to their
• 9:16
  armies. And over his host was Elishama,
• 9:20
  the son of Al Mahoud. 23 And over the host of the tribe of
• 9:23
  the children of Manessa was Gamaliel, the son of Padasir. 24
• 9:28
  And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was
• 9:31
  Abidan, the son of Gidonai. 25 And the standard of the camp of
• 9:36
  the children of Dan set forward, which was the rear word of all
• 9:41
  the camps throughout their hosts and over the host was Ahadeh is
• 9:46
  there, the son of Ahmad Shahdai. So we know that this tribe of
• 9:52
  Dan, this snake in the road 26 And over the host with the tribe
• 9:59
  of Asher was Pagiel the son of Okran. 27 And over the hosts of
• 10:04
  the tribe of the children of Neftali was a higher of the son
• 10:08
  of Inan. 28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of
• 10:12
  Israel according to their armies, when they set forward.
• 10:15
  29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raquel the Midianite,
• 10:21
  Moses's father-in-law, We are journeying unto the place of
• 10:25
  which the Lord said, I will give it you, Come you with us, and we
• 10:30
  will do you good. For the Lord has spoken good
• 10:33
  concerning Israel. So this was Moses,
• 10:36
  brother-in-law, and he's saying, come with us, and you can help
• 10:40
  us out along the way. You can be our eyes for the
• 10:45
  Desert. Rd. 30 And he said unto him, I
• 10:49
  will not go, but I will depart to my own land and to my
• 10:53
  kindred. 31 And he said, Leave us not, I pray you, for as much
• 10:57
  as you know how we are to encamp in the wilderness, that you may
• 11:02
  be to us instead of eyes. So he's saying you could go and
• 11:06
  spy out the land, and you could tell us which way we needed to
• 11:10
  go, what was the best, safest passage, and you can be like
• 11:14
  eyes to us out here. Oh, Bob. 32 And it shall be if
• 11:19
  you go with us. Yeah, it shall be that what
• 11:23
  goodness the Lord shall do unto us, the same we will do unto
• 11:28
  you. So here there is a very
• 11:33
  ambiguous statement that we are not 100% sure of what he's going
• 11:38
  to do. But as we Fast forward in
• 11:41
  Scripture, we're going to see that Ho Bob's descendants are
• 11:44
  among the Israelites, which tells us that he probably did
• 11:49
  wind up going. 33 And they departed from the mount of the
• 11:54
  Lord. 3 days journeys in the ark of the covenant of the Lord went
• 11:59
  before them in the three days journey to search out a resting
• 12:04
  place for them. So they're being led by the
• 12:07
  pillar of fire by night, in the cloud by day. 30-4 in the cloud
• 12:11
  of the Lord was upon them by day, and they went out of the
• 12:14
  camp. 35 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that
• 12:19
  Moses said, Rise up, Lord, and let thine enemies be scattered,
• 12:23
  and let them that hate you flee before you. 36 And when it
• 12:28
  rested, he said, Return, O Lord, unto the many thousands of
• 12:32
  Israel. Look at this, friends.
• 12:36
  Look at how whenever it was time to March, there was one prayer,
• 12:41
  and when it was time to rest there was another prayer.
• 12:44
  And this is the prayer that we need to pray today, friends, we
• 12:50
  cry out to God and say, rise up, Lord, let your enemies be
• 12:57
  scattered and let them that hate you flee before you.
• 13:03
  God can do this today, friends, He desires to do it for you
• 13:07
  today. Let him rise up and his enemies
• 13:10
  be scattered. All those who set their faces
• 13:13
  against holy God, let God confound them and get them to a
• 13:18
  place of radical repentance, Friends, same place that you and
• 13:24
  I had to get to. Rise up God, and let your
• 13:27
  enemies be scattered. And when God gives us peace and
• 13:31
  rest, we cry out before him and say, Return, O Lord, unto the
• 13:36
  thousands of Israel. We pray for the peace of
• 13:39
  Jerusalem. We pray for the Israeli people,
• 13:43
  Friends, We pray for those who are God's promised people, His
• 13:50
  peculiar chosen people. We pray for them today.
• 13:54
  We say return unto them and make them holy.
• 13:57
  And I pray that they come to the saving knowledge of the Lord
• 14:01
  Jesus Christ today. I hope you've been blessed by
• 14:03
  this amazing chapter in God's Word.
• 14:06
  I know I sure have. I'm praying for every single one
• 14:08
  of you. I love you.
• 14:09
  We'll see you back here tomorrow.
• 14:10
  God bless you.
