And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, The daughters of Zelophehad speak right. | ||
| Numbers 27:6–7 | ||
| Because their father had died, leaving no male inheritor, the daughters of Zelophehad came to Moses, saying, “It’s unfair that we receive no inheritance simply because we have no brother to claim it.” In saying that the daughters of Zelophehad were right, is the Lord implying that He neglected to address the question of a lack of a male inheritor, that He simply forgot to put it in the law? Obviously not. I believe the Lord purposely leaves some things unsaid in the Word in order that we might go to Him for further instruction. When I was younger, I basically thought the Trinity consisted of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Bible. I didn’t understand that the real key to vibrant Christianity, to a radical faith, lies in the new covenant, where the Lord says, “I will write My will upon the table of your heart” (see Jeremiah 31:33). Why was it that the whole known world was impacted, turned upside down by a group of believers who didn’t have a single page of the New Testament? It was because even though they didn’t have the Gospel of Luke or the Epistle to the Romans, they knew how to listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. And as a result, miracles happened and blessings flowed. We will be the most radical group of believers in the world to the degree that we say, “Lord, lead me today. Write Your will upon my heart; confirm it by Your Word. And what You tell me, I will do.” Pastor Jon Courson | ||
