Numbers 11:13-15 Wretchedness and Weakness!

 13Where can I get meat for all these people? For they keep crying out to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’

14I cannot carry all these people by myself; it is too burdensome for me. 15If this is how You are going to treat me, please kill me right now—if I have found favor in Your eyes—and let me not see my own wretchedness.”

God needed Moses to see his inability to fix this problem because of his own wretchedness, his weakness. But Gods power is perfected in weakness! 

2 Corinthians 12:9 But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.

I had something similar happen to me, the Lord called us to adoption but when the party was over and life got out of hand I told the Lord that it is too burdensome for me, please kill me right now. “But Gods power is perfected in weakness!”

He needed me to see my own wretchedness, my weakness, “so that the power of Christ may rest on me.”

I was no different than Moses, we were both weak without the Lord!

Have you ever been so weak that the Lord’s power carried (rested on) you?

If so, boast all the more gladly to others about your testimony because it’s our obligation to the One who died for us! It’s your testimony that He will use to draw lost souls to Him.

Numbers 11:10-12 Babies and infants 👶

 10Then Moses heard the people of family after family weeping at the entrances to their tents, and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly, and Moses was also displeased.

11So Moses asked the LORD, “Why have You brought this trouble on Your servant? Why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid upon me the burden of all these people? 12Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth, so that You should tell me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries an infant,’ to the land that You swore to give their fathers?

Babies and infants 👶 

Whah whah whah!

I believe there is a reason why we can’t remember when we were and acted like babies, crying 😢 for this and that.

But here we see grown adults who have seen miracles securing their freedom crying like babies because they have no meat to eat!

“and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly”

Notice the emphasis on greatly!

Do you remember a time where you acted with such foolishness towards your parents to get your way? Unfortunately I do!

Thank the Lord that He didn’t open up the ground and swallow us up!

Thank Jesus for your salvation because without it you’re condemned!

Jude 1:6 The (not so) Great Day

 There’s a scene in the movie “The Shack” where the lead character Mack is told to choose between his two children. One of them has to go to hell. It’s a very powerful scene that points the finger squarely at anyone who has ever “judged” anyone. And it perfectly explains why Christ had to died on the cross for us. 

https://youtu.be/hUiW7bOqGPA

One day, we will all be judged. There is no escaping it. What will your judgement be?  

The Final Judgment

Revelation 20:11-15  I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne; and books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, even the lake of fire. And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

Jude 1:6 And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day

In His Name

Numbers 11:7-9 Besides this manna!

 7Now the manna resembled coriander seed, and its appearance was like that of gum resin. 8The people walked around and gathered it, ground it on a handmill or crushed it in a mortar, then boiled it in a cooking pot or shaped it into cakes. It tasted like pastry baked with fine oil. 9When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna would fall with it.

Beside this manna!

Why is it when we continually eat the same thing we grow tired of it?

“I will rain bread from heaven for you,” and He kept His Word. 

“There was “nothing to pay”—no manna-tax was ever exacted of the Israelite’s hand.

According to the Apocrypha, which is not to be received as Scripture, but still is often valuable in some respects, each man tasted the manna according to his own liking.

But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.

Here they pour contempt upon the bread of angels, upon the food of heaven, upon the benison of God. Oh, what will men not complain of?”  (C H Spurgeon)

What blessing has the Lord given you that you say, “besides this blessing” before your eyes that you grow tired of and complain of?

Is it your wife, husband, children, home, possessions.....?

Numbers 11:4-6 Rabble

 4Meanwhile, the rabble among them had a strong craving for other food, and again the Israelites wept and said, “Who will feed us meat? 5We remember the fish we ate freely in Egypt, along with the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic. 6But now our appetite is gone; there is nothing to see but this manna!”

Rabble

A disorderly crowd; mob.

Where have I heard this word before? 🤔 

“THE apostle Paul was about to be placed in imminent peril. He was to be brought before the Roman governor, Gallio. The Jews, rank and rabble, were hopeful that they would get him condemned to death.” (C H Spurgeon)

Acts 17:5 But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked men of the rabble, they formed a mob....ESV

Have you ever been among the rabble?

When finding myself in difficult situations I try to ask myself, WWJD?

What Would Jesus Do? As a man He would have departed from them and left the mob, the rabble to their own desires. As God He could have spoken a word, “stop” and they would have obeyed!

Numbers 11:1-3 Stop 🛑 complaining and start praying 🙏

 1Soon the people began to complain about their hardship in the hearing of the LORD, and when He heard them, His anger was kindled, and fire from the LORD blazed among them and consumed the outskirts of the camp. 2And the people cried out to Moses, and he prayed to the LORD, and the fire died down. 3So that place was called Taberah, because the fire of the LORD had burned among them.

Complaining!

“There is so much of complaining here, so much of questioning—“How long? How long? How long? How long?”—four times over, that we may call it, as David did once call his prayer—“the voice of my roaring.” It is a kind of howling, roaring, moaning complaint before God in the bitterness of his soul.” (C H Spurgeon)

Psalm 103:9 He will not always contend with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever.

Stop complaining or His anger towards you will be kindled! 

Stop 🛑 complaining and start praying 🙏

Numbers 10:33-36 The March!

 33So they set out on a three-day journey from the mountain of the LORD, with the ark of the covenant of the LORD traveling ahead of them for those three days to seek a resting place for them. 34And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day when they set out from the camp.

35Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say,

“Rise up, O LORD!

May Your enemies be scattered;

may those who hate You flee before You.”

36And when it came to rest, he would say:

“Return, O LORD,

to the countless thousands of Israel.”

How many thousands? Numbers 26 states 601,730 armed men for war! Plus women and children the estimates run as high as 2.5 million Israelites! Let that number sink in when you read the following quote!

The March!

“Yet, before they began the march, before the standard of Judah was uplifted, and that tribe began to take up its tents to lead the van, the silver trumpet was always blown in the front. It was heard through the entire encampment—the silver trumpet, which seemed to say, “Arise! Depart!—this is not your rest. Your God has removed, and you must follow.”

Then Moses himself came forward, and stretching out his hands, he cried, “Arise, O God, and let your enemies be scattered; and let them that hate you flee before you.” When this was done, on marched the mighty host, and when they came to their halting place again, and the trumpet sounded for the rest of eventide, up came the king in Jeshurun, the prophet of Horeb, and lifting up his hands, again he cried, “Return unto your rest and unto the many thousands of Israel,” and the pillar rested over the top of the great encampment, and gave them a bright and flaming light by night, even as it gave them a glorious covering and protection by day.” (CH Spurgeon)

“Even so has it been with the church of God in all ages. Her march has been that of one who is fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners. Let but her silvery trumpet sound, and the echo shakes the vaults of hell. Let but her warriors unsheathe their sword, and their enemies fly before them like thin clouds before a Biscay gale. Her path is the pathway of a conqueror, her march has been a procession of triumph. Wherever she has put her foot, the Lord has given her that land to be her heritage forever and ever, and as it was in the beginning, it is now and ever shall be till this world shall end. Amen.” (CH Spurgeon)

Has God ever asked you to march? Blessings 

Numbers 10:29-32 Did he stay or did he go?

 29Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said: ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”

30“I will not go,” Hobab replied. “Instead, I am going back to my own land and my own people.”

31“Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.(guide) 32If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”

Did he stay or did he go?

And why did Moses want Hobab to be their guide? 

Didn’t the Lord guide them with a pillar of cloud?

Does this verse gives us a clue?

Judges 4: 11 NLT Now Heber the Kenite, a descendant of Moses’ brother-in-law Hobab, had moved away from the other members of his tribe and pitched his tent by the oak of Zaanannim near Kedesh.

I believe he stayed.

Have you ever decided to go but a godly person convinced you to stay?

Numbers 10:18-28 Division, Myriad or Legion?

 18Then the divisions of the camp of Reuben set out under their standard, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command. 19Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was over the division of the tribe of Simeon, 20and Eliasaph son of Deuel was over the division of the tribe of Gad. 21Then the Kohathites set out, transporting the holy objects; the tabernacle was to be set up before their arrival. 

22Next, the divisions of the camp of Ephraim set out under their standard, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command. 23Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was over the division of the tribe of Manasseh, 24and Abidan son of Gideoni was over the division of the tribe of Benjamin.

25Finally, the divisions of the camp of Dan set out under their standard, serving as the rear guard for all units, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command. 26Pagiel son of Ocran was over the division of the tribe of Asher, 27and Ahira son of Enan was over the division of the tribe of Naphtali.

28This was the order of march for the Israelite divisions as they set out.

Division, Myriad or Legion?

Yesterday we looked at a division. “A division is a large military unit or formation, usually consisting of between 6,000 and 25,000 soldiers”.

Which brings to mind, legion!

But how many is a legion? Some argue a legion is 10,000. I believe a legion is larger than a division.

Matthew 26: 53Are you not aware that I can call on My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?

 Ellie Gardner Specialty, "ancient animated landscape rock art", Christian.

“Myriad, derived from the Greek μυριάς (murias) meaning 10,000 or an innumerable number. See Hebrews 12:22and Jude 1:14; an innumerable number or 10,000 times 10,000 (myriads on angels). Check out a number of differing Bible versions pertaining to the following books: Luke 12:1, Acts 19:19, Revelation 5:11 and Revelation 9:16. Myriads could even be considered a non-quantifiable number just by itself. How many angels are there in heaven? Far more than we can imagine and that does not include the ones bound in Hell.”

Division, myriads or legions? When Jesus said 12 legions, I believe it an innumerable number, too many for a human to count!

Numbers 10:14-17 Divisions

 14First, the divisions of the camp of Judah set out under their standard, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command. 15Nethanel son of Zuar was over the division of the tribe of Issachar, 16and Eliab son of Helon was over the division of the tribe of Zebulun. 17Then the tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonites and the Merarites set out, transporting it.

Divisions

An area of government or corporate or (Tribe) activity organized as an administrative or functional unit. 

There were 91 U.S. Army Divisions In World War II that served from 1939 to 1945.

Like a military campaign the Lord was setting the order of the tribes and their duties. If He didn’t their would be utter chaos when the people were directed to move in the wilderness.

Are you an orderly or chaotic type of person?

Numbers 10:11-13 First Time

 11On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle of the Testimony, 12and the Israelites set out from the Wilderness of Sinai, traveling from place to place until the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran. 13They set out this first time according to the LORD’s command through Moses.

First Time

When was the first time you repented and accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal savior?

I’m bad with dates but I remember where and how! But there’s great news because the Lord knows exactly the date and time as the angels rejoiced and my name was written in the Book of life!

Luke 15:10 In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”

Revelation 3: 5Like them, he who overcomes will be dressed in white. And I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels.

If you haven’t made that decision yet and are reading this there’s still time!

What does it mean to accept Jesus as your personal Savior?

Joyous Occasions & Appointed Feasts!

 10And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”

Joyous Occasions 

When I was growing up our traditional family had joyous occasions and appointed feasts on Easter, Forth of July, corn roast at harvest, Thanksgiving and Christmas. We were blessed and my father was a hard worker and a good provider.

But none of this will compare with the your joyous occasion, your appointed feast in heaven!

Matthew 8:11 And I tell you this, that many Gentiles will come from all over the world—from east and west—and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at the feast in the Kingdom of Heaven.

I am looking forward to that time, are you?

Bad Angels. Jude 1:6

 Jude 1:6 

And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling—these He has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.

Sorry to burst your bubble but Angels are not our loved ones who have gone to Heaven. Unlike Clarence in “It’s A Wonderful Life” you do not earn your wings after you die. Every time an Angel appears in the Bible, the first words spoken by them are “Fear not”. We would probably “Freak out” too if we saw an Angel appear before us. 

Lucifer was an Angel who thought he could exalt himself above God. He thought he was better then God so God kicked Lucifer and his cronies (Angels who sided with Lucifer) out of Heaven. One third of the Angels decided to follow Lucifer and they became his demons. 

Isaiah 14:12-14  How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”

Numbers 10:9 Battle!

 9When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who attacks you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and saved from your enemies.

Battle!

Why does life seem so hard, everyday seems like a battle!

“In sober truth, every man and every woman who enlists for Christ will have to wrestle till their bones shall sleep in the tomb. There shall be no pause nor cessation for you from this day until the laurel is upon thy brow. If you art defeated one day, you must overcome the next; if a conqueror today, you must fight tomorrow.”

“They have overcome, then why should not you? Jesus Christ, who is bone of our bone, and flesh of our flesh, has passed through the sternest part of the battle, and He has overcome—a type and representative of all those who are cross-bearers, and who shall overcome as He has done.”

“He will win the battle who knows how to begin on the low ground, and to fight uphill by divine strength. Learn the wisdom, not of self-reliance, but of self-diffidence, for he that trusts in his own heart is a fool.”

“Oh! young people, do understand the value of prayer, and you aged people, do continue in prayer and supplication, for if we are to win this battle of our life, it can only be by taking in our charge- bill to the great Paymaster, and asking Him to discharge the charges of this war.”

“Sharpen your swords, soldiers of the cross, and be ready for the fray, but as you march to the battle let it be with heads bowed down in adoration before Him, who alone can cover your heads in the day of battle, and when you lift up those heads in the front of the foe, let this be your song, “The Lord JEHOVAH is my strength and my song, the Lord has become my salvation!” (C H Spurgeon)

Fight on, win the battle of life with Jesus Christ, Blessings 

Numbers 10:5-8 Telecommunications

 5When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out. 6When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out. 7To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones. 8The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.

Telecommunications 

The trumpet blasts in a way, could be considered an early form of telecommunications and the blasts reminded me of Morse code, it’s a universal language used in telecommunications.

When I learned Morse code it was later in life and I just couldn’t get it. I eventually learned it by phonetics. The only difficulty with phonetics is when listening to it your translation speed is limited because you are associating a picture to the sound.

Two short blasts, would be two dots . . the letter (I) and phonetics sounds like (bit it).

Two long blasts, would be two dashes - - the letter (M) and phonetics sounds like (mama)

I can’t wait for the “mighty blast of a trumpet”, can you?

Maranatha, come Lord quickly come!

Numbers 10:1-4 Trumpets!

 1Then the LORD said to Moses, 2“Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out. 3When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. 4But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

Trumpets!

Reminds me of...

Matthew 24: 30And then at last, the sign that the Son of Man is coming will appear in the heavens, and there will be deep mourning among all the peoples of the earth. And they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31And he will send out his angels with the mighty blast of a trumpet, and they will gather his chosen ones from all over the world—from the farthest ends of the earth and heaven.

The way our country is racing towards hell I wonder if this will happen soon?

Only the Father knows!

Are you prepared for the day of the mighty blast of the trumpet?

“Why are you sleeping when death is hastening on; when eternity is near; when the Great White throne is even now coming on the clouds of heaven; when the trumpet of the resurrection is now being set to the mouth of the archangel—why do you sleep? Why will you slumber? Oh that the voice of Jehovah might speak and make you wake; that you may escape from the wrath to come!” (Spurgeon)

Numbers 9:22-23 The Lords Charge

 22Whether the cloud lingered for two days, a month, or longer, the Israelites camped and did not set out as long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle; but when it was lifted, they would set out. 23They camped at the LORD’s command, and they set out at the LORD’s command; they carried out the LORD’s charge according to His command through Moses.

The Lords Charge

When we came to Christ and were “born again” He laid on our hearts 💕 His orphans. It led to something unbelievable for my wife and I, two selfish people that decided not to have children to care for His orphans. It started with a request at a church service for an adoption agency, but it was one of those agencies that charged a fee and after a meeting the Holy Spirit quickly closed the door to that particular agency. We went to another agency and after several meetings we were transformed from from foster care to adoption, wanting and infant to an unwanted ten year old. We quickly knew this was His choice because the child’s name was Jesus! Our friends said we were nuts and tried to dissuade us but the Lord persuaded us that this was the correct child. Was it easy? NO! Did He walk with us? Yes! Did He provide the necessary tools? Yes! Did our church help? Yes! Did our church family help? Yes!

We provided a loving home to a child that his own birth family didn’t want.

We weren’t perfect but our Lord walked with us every minute.

We planted a seed and he recently told us, “you helped me through a very hard time in my life”.

What has the Lord charged you with? Did you follow through?

I Believe. Jude 1:5

 What was it like to live in Egypt as an enslaved Hebrew? Day after day the same monotonous work. Some gathered grasses, some hauled water, some made mud, others formed bricks. The bricks had to be baked and constructed into whatever Pharaoh desired. There were hundreds of other jobs the Hebrews were forced to perform. Hour after hour, day after day, month after month, year after year, generation after generation. You would think once God had delivered them from Egypt, they would have been eternally grateful and faithfully served Him the rest of their days. 

But they didn’t. They grumbled and complained, constructed a golden calf, second guessed Gods plan of the Promised Land and refused to trust Him when He told them to go and take the land. 

So they never enjoyed the rewards God had for them. They never entered into His rest. They wandered around aimlessly for 40 years until that generation died off. 

I use to judge the Hebrew of Exodus as weak, lacking faith. After all, they saw the Red Sea part, the pillar of fire and water pouring from a rock but still doubted, still disobeyed, still rebelled. 

I’ve come to realize I’m not much different. I sometimes have doubt. I sometimes don’t trust. I sometimes lack faith and am weak. But then I remember all I’ve read. I think about all I’ve learned. I understand His love for me, His sacrifice and His grace. And I know, without a doubt, without ever having seen, that He exists. And I believe. 

Jude 1:5 But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.

Numbers 9:19-21 Set Out

 19Even when the cloud lingered over the tabernacle for many days, the Israelites kept the LORD’s charge and did not set out. 20Sometimes the cloud remained over the tabernacle for only a few days, and they would camp at the LORD’s command and set out at the LORD’s command. 21Sometimes the cloud remained only from evening until morning, and when it lifted in the morning, they would set out. Whether it was by day or by night, when the cloud was taken up, they would set out.

Set Out

Paul set out to speak the word in Asia but....

Acts 16: 6After the Holy Spirit had prevented them from speaking the word in the province of Asia, they traveled through the region of Phrygia and Galatia. 7And when they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not permit them. 8So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.

Have you set out to do something and the Lord turned you away from it?

Numbers 9:17-18 Camp

 17Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the Tent, the Israelites would set out, and wherever the cloud settled, there the Israelites would camp. 18At the LORD’s command the Israelites set out, and at the LORD’s command they camped. As long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle, they remained encamped.

Camp

The Israelites were following the Lords command by sight. Remember there were approximately 2.4 million people including the women and children. It wasn’t an easy task to travel, when the cloud ☁️ lifted they pulled up stakes and to move to the next location and when the cloud ☁️ settled they camped.

When we were children our family of eight went on vacation every summer camping with a Nimrod tent trailer. One particular trip was around Lake Superior with a 1957 Ford pulling the trailer. One night while in Minnesota a black bear had interrupted my father’s sleep and he was worried about our safety and with a flashlight and hatchet in tow he chased the bear away. 😇

When we raised our son we continued the camping tradition and we traveled many states with a pickup  🛻camper enjoying Gods nature.

Have you and your family ever gone camping and enjoyed the beautiful nature that God created?

Numbers 9:15-16 Gods Presence & Glory

 15On the day that the tabernacle, the Tent of the Testimony, was set up, the cloud covered it and appeared like fire above the tabernacle from evening until morning. 16It remained that way continually; the cloud would cover the tabernacle by day, and at night it would appear like fire.

“Which would be worse - to have never seen such an amazing visual emblem of God’s presence and glory, or to have seen it - and then watch it depart?” (Guzik)

Have you ever had a bad day and get the feeling that the Holy Spirit has left you? 

Maybe it’s because of sin, spiritual warfare or because of the road our nation is heading down and we can see the handwriting on the wall. (Daniel 5)

When we feel down and alone like David did we need to immerse ourselves in the scriptures. Psalm 23 is a good place to start, so we can feel Gods presence and glory.

Numbers 9:14 Foreigner

 14If a foreigner dwelling among you wants to observe the Passover to the LORD, he is to do so according to the Passover statute and its ordinances. You are to apply the same statute to both the foreigner and the native of the land.’ ”

Foreigner

A stranger (foreigner) is a person who is away from his home, and a sojourner is one who only stays in a certain place for a short time, and then must be up and away. Such is a true Christian. In what respects is he a stranger?

First, he is a stranger in his position. He is not in his native land—he is a freeman of the New Jerusalem. He sings,

“I’m but a stranger here, Heaven is my home; Earth is a desert dreary, Heaven is my home.

“Dangers and sorrows stand Round me on every hand: Heaven is my fatherland Heaven is my home.” (Spurgeon)

Heaven is my home, is it yours!

Numbers 9:13 Cut Off

 13But if a man who is ceremonially clean and is not on a journey still fails to observe the Passover, he must be cut off from his people, because he did not present the LORD’s offering at its appointed time. That man will bear the consequences of his sin.

Cut off

Judgment before the Great White Throne

Jesus is your only hope or you will be cut off too and “bear the consequences of his sin”.

Revelation 20: 14Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death—the lake of fire. 15And if anyone was found whose name was not written in the Book of Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Numbers 9:9-12 Lamb of God

 9Then the LORD said to Moses, 10“Tell the Israelites: ‘When any one of you or your descendants is unclean because of a dead body, or is away on a journey, he may still observe the Passover to the LORD. 11Such people are to observe it at twilight on the fourteenth day of the second month. They are to eat the lamb, together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs; 12they may not leave any of it until morning or break any of its bones. They must observe the Passover according to all its statutes.

Lamb of God

John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

In the same pattern we must partake of Jesus!

John 6: 53So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you. 

56Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him.

Do you partake in Jesus, is He your (Passover) Lamb of God?
