What does it say?
God passed judgment on a group of community leaders who led a rebellion against Moses and Aaron’s authority. Even so, the Israelites continued to grumble.
What does it mean?
God had already confirmed that Moses was the leader He had chosen to deliver the Israelites from slavery and lead them into their own land. However, rather than submit to Moses’ God-given authority, Korah, Dathan, and Abiram formed a rebellion in order to promote their own positions within the community. They were more interested in their own agenda than God’s plan. The Lord’s answer was swift and unquestionable. But less than twenty-four hours later, the Israelites opposed Moses again, bringing even more judgment. Challenging Moses’ authority was a challenge to God’s authority.
How should I respond?
Who has God placed as an authority in your life? What is your attitude toward the people who make decisions in your community, church, and home? There’s no doubt that not all leaders are cut from the same cloth as Moses. We’re bound to have differences of opinion and even disagreements with people in positions over us. In those times, ask God to reveal any signs of rebellion in your heart. How might you be trying to promote yourself and your own agenda? Look for opportunities to talk about issues that come up in a way that shows respect for a leader’s position. How can you show support for God-given authority today?

關於此計劃
In the book of Numbers, God demonstrates himself as a pillar of fire and a pillar of smoke, faithfully leading his often rebellious people through the wilderness. Although the faithless wilderness generation was barred from entering the promised land, God was raising up a generation to lead the people from their wandering into the conquest of the land of Canaan.
