Numbers 17-18, Psalm 45
Numbers 17:6-8 (NLT)
“So Moses gave the instructions to the people of Israel, and each of the twelve tribal leaders, including Aaron, brought Moses a staff. Moses placed the staffs in the Lord’s presence in the Tabernacle of the Covenant. When he went into the Tabernacle of the Covenant the next day, he found that Aaron’s staff, representing the tribe of Levi, had sprouted, budded, blossomed, and produced ripe almonds!”
In Numbers 17:6–8, we read how the Lord confirmed that He had chosen Aaron to lead the people. Moses instructed each of the twelve tribal leaders to bring a staff with his name inscribed on it. After Moses placed the staffs in the Tabernacle, only Aaron’s staff had sprouted by the next morning. It not only budded but also produced blossoms and ripe almonds.
These verses remind me to trust the Lord’s will in the selection of leaders. I am struck by the supernatural image of dead wood coming to life overnight. One Bible commentary noted that the miracle of the sprouting staff prefigures the resurrection of Jesus Christ—life emerging from what appeared to be dead—and points to Christ as our ultimate High Priest. Another commentary explained that almonds in biblical times symbolized watchfulness and divine favor. Aaron’s staff producing ripe almonds was a visible sign that Father-God had chosen him and placed His favor upon him.
This miracle also reminds me that I should never doubt the power of Father-God to bring life out of what seems barren or lifeless. The Lord is able to confirm His calling and purposes in ways that leave no room for confusion.
If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who can bring life to barren places in your life—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.
Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of Father-God! I encourage you to find and join a Holy Spirit–filled, full-Gospel, Bible-based church where you can grow in your faith and experience the Lord’s love, signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.

Day 44 Bible Readings for February 15 - Numbers 14:44-45 (NLT)
Numbers 14-16, Psalm 44
Numbers 14:44-45 (NLT)
“But the people defiantly pushed ahead toward the hill country, even though neither Moses nor the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant left the camp. Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in those hills came down and attacked them and chased them back as far as Hormah.”
In Numbers 11:4–6, the people of Israel complained about eating manna day after day. They longed for meat, fish, and other foods they remembered from Egypt. In their dissatisfaction, they forgot that the Lord was faithfully providing manna for them each day and that they no longer had to struggle to find food.
These verses stood out to me because I have experienced discontentment with Father-God’s provision in my own life. I once prayed for a high-paying, six-figure job. When I received it, I was grateful and excited that the Lord had given me my heart’s desire. But after about a year, I found myself complaining. The job was stressful, required long hours, and came with constant pressure. The Lord had given me what I asked for, yet I could not keep discontentment out of my heart.
The Holy Spirit gently reminded me to be grateful because the job provided financial stability and comfort. Still, I struggled with contentment. Like the Israelites, I found myself longing for the familiarity of my former situation, even though I had prayed for change. Over time, I realized I needed to trust the Lord and learn to be content with what He had provided. That financial security eventually positioned me for the better life I have today.
If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who knows your needs better than you do and faithfully provides—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.
Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation.

Day 43 Bible Readings - Numbers 11:4-6 (NLT)
Numbers 11-13, Psalm 43
Numbers 11:4-6 (NLT)
“Then the foreign rabble who were traveling with the Israelites began to crave the good things of Egypt. And the people of Israel also began to complain. ‘Oh, for some meat!’ they exclaimed. ‘We remember the fish we used to eat for free in Egypt. And we had all the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic we wanted. But now our appetites are gone. All we ever see is this manna!’”

Day 42 Bible Readings - Numbers 9:21-23 (NLT)
Numbers 8-10, Psalm 42
Numbers 9:21-23 (NLT)
“Sometimes the cloud stayed only overnight and lifted the next morning. But day or night, when the cloud lifted, the people broke camp and moved on. Whether the cloud stayed above the Tabernacle for two days, a month, or a year, the people of Israel stayed in camp and did not move on. But as soon as it lifted, they broke camp and moved on. So they camped or traveled at the Lord’s command, and they did whatever the Lord told them through Moses.”
In Numbers 9:21–23, we read about the Lord’s presence appearing as a cloud over the Israelites. As long as the cloud remained over the camp, the people stayed where they were. When the cloud lifted, they packed up and moved. The Israelites relied completely on the cloud for direction and had to wait for Father-God’s timing—knowing when to move and when to remain still.
These verses remind me that I need to cultivate the same level of obedience in my own life. Instead of following a visible cloud, I have the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit prompts me to act, I need to respond in faith. These verses also remind me to trust Father-God’s timing and to align myself with His will.
Like the wilderness journey of the Israelites, there are seasons in my life filled with uncertainty about how the Lord’s plan will unfold. When my path seems unclear, I must trust the Holy Spirit just as the Israelites trusted the cloud. I also need to learn to wait as they did—remaining attentive and sensitive to where the Lord is leading. Most importantly, the Holy Spirit represents the Lord’s abiding presence in my life, and I am filled with gratitude each day that I can sense His guidance.
If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who, through the Holy Spirit, is always present to guide you—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.
Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus.
