Numbers 21. Victory over Canaanites. The fiery Serpents

1 And when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south, heard tell that Israel came by the way of the spies; then he fought against Israel, and took some of them prisoners. 2 And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities. 3 And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities: and he called the name of the place Hormah.

4 And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way. 5 And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us…

Gossip

Proverbs 26:20

“Where there is no wood, the fire goes out; And where there is no talebearer, strife ceases.”

Wildfires are out of control and can be devastating if not put out quickly. Their flames ruthlessly creep acre by acre burning up anything in their path. It’s the vegetation and wind that keeps it going.

Gossip works the same way and is just as destructive in other ways. Someone once said, “Everyone holds two buckets in their hands, one with water, the other with gas, we choose which one to pour on gossip.”

This verse reminds us that when a “tale-bearer” is not present, neither is gossip or contention.

It’s great advice from the world’s wisest man on preventing relationship fires. Here’s how to use the bucket of water…First, declare where you stand. Simply respond with, “I’m not going to…

3 If a woman also vow a vow unto the LORD, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father’s house in her youth; 4 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand. 5 But if her father disallow…
