Summer Storytime: No Longer Slaves

This Sunday, Joe Kwan continues the Summer Storytime series and shares a message on freedom as well as how we are no longer slaves as Christ followers. While we prepare our hearts for Sunday, let us reflect on how the Israelites were grumbling in Numbers 14:3 with the words, "Why is the Lord bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword?"

This Week's Scripture:
// Numbers 13:30-14:4 //
Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, “We should 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.” And they spread among the Israelites a bad report about the land they had explored. They said, “The land we explored devours those living in it. All the people we saw there are of great size. We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them.”

That night all the members of the community raised their voices and wept aloud. All the Israelites grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and the whole assembly said to them, “If only we had died in Egypt! Or in this wilderness! Why is the Lord bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?” And they said to each other, “We should choose a leader and go back to Egypt.”
