Numbers 11-12 Proverbs 19-

Numbers 11-12
"Now the people complained about their hardships". The Lord heard the people complaining and it made him angry. God then consumed some of the outskirts of the camp, the people cried out to Moses, Moses prayed and the fire died down.

When the dew settled on the camp at night, the manna came down. The Lord was faithful DAILY to provide food for the people. The rabble began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said if only we had meat to eat." Moses would hear them wailing then would tell complain to the Lord about his troubles which made Him angry.

15 Moses said "If this is how you are going to treat me, put me to death right now—if I have found favor in your eyes—and do not let me face my own ruin." God responded "Consecrate yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, when you will eat meat. The LORD heard you when you wailed, "If only we had meat to eat! We were better off in Egypt!" Now the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat it. You will not eat it for just one day, or two days, or five, ten or twenty days but for a whole month—until it comes out of your nostrils and you loathe it—because you have rejected the LORD, who is among you, and have wailed before him, saying, "Why did we ever leave Egypt?" ' "

When God's said people will have meat, Moses questions where it will come from? (Vs 23) The LORD answered Moses, "Is the LORD's arm too short? You will now see whether or not what I say will come true for you." God help me not to question you or doubt what you say!

The Lord sent quail into the town and it was flying as low as three feet from the ground! While the meat was still in their teeth and before it'd been consumed, the anger of the Lord burned against the people and he struck them with a severe plague. They buried the people who had craved other food.

Vs. 25-26 says that the Holy spirit came down on to the elders to help carry Moses burdens and they prophesied (only once).

Aaron and Miriam spoke out against Moses. The Lord heard and struck Miriam with leprosy! Moses then cried out for he Lord to heal her.
