“A Peculiar General Problem – Part 1”

Key Verse
“why should the name of our father be done away from among his family, because he hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the brethren of our father” (Numbers 27:4).Text —Numbers 27:1-5
Message
Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, died without a son though he had five daughters. Faced with the possible extinction of their names in Israel, they graciously approached Moses, Eleazer, the priest, and other congregation leaders. Contrary to the norm, they wanted an inheritance among their Father’s brethren; therefore, Moses sought the Lord for guidance, and a new law emerged on the heritage of daughters in Israel. Happy International Day of the Girl Child!
Many lessons are derivable from their approach and the attitude of Moses.
1. We need wisdom and humility when approaching leaders for our concerns.
2. We must be humble as leaders not to assume we have the solution to every problem; therefore, we should seek God’s guidance.
3. We should be interested in the inheritance of our parents.
4. Never murmur but ask questions when confused.
5. Among God’s people, there must not be injustice in dealings with people irrespective of age, class, colour, or gender. Humility and peace should be easy with Jesus in our hearts.
