Episode 3 Taking steps towards a desired destination but with wrong motives.

Walk And Winds

·         Wind which brought Birds food for the Israelites on their journey to Promised Land.

·         The birds were called quails. (Nb.11:31)

·         The estimated number required for the people to eat quails could be around: 20,160,000,000 quails for about 3 million adults. If the cost could be estimated then it should be around @$:1:00 each then the cost comes around 20 Billion Dollars. (2016 Crore Dollars X INRs. 75=151200,000,000:- Fifteen thousand one hundred twenty Million) God fed them because they wanted flesh to eat. (Dakes Bible/p.327)

Kibroth-hattaavah: A place of graves where lustful were killed and buried

The Bible says: Num 11:16-23: And the LORD said unto Moses: “And say thou unto the

people, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.

·         Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days; But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?

·         And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and you have said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month. Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them? And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD's hand waxed short? You shall see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not."

Num 11:31-35: And there went forth a wind from the LORD:

·         “And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth.

·         And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.

·         And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.

·         And he called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted. And the people journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth." They left behind a painful memory!

We Learn that:

a)      The wind of God brought flesh they liked to eat.

b)      God was providing Manna from heavenly stores.

c)      The Earthly Material desire turned into a deadly lust which killed all those who lusted after. The Wind of God provided what people demanded but it was a rebellion.

d)      The Wind of God also gives Eternal life to mankind. Jesus: Man shall not live by bread alone.(Dt.8:3-4) A natural NEED of food turned into A LIFE SUCKING GREED! Make choices wisely. God is The Jehovah Provider-YHWH Jireh! But He is also YHWH Tsidkenu-The Just God!
