Numbers 27

Zelophehad's daughters...did God overlook something or in His infinite wisdom, did He create a scenario that requires us to act for what is right, not just for ourselves but for society. Women owning land was a scarcity in any culture of ancient times and this burgeoning nation was no exception.

I am so inspired by how God in working with Moses on Mount Sinai left out, with great intentionality, this essential aspect of the Law, what of this one family, would there be no inheritance for them? Can you imagine the conversation among those ladies: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah? One of them saying, "We need to go to Moses and tell him..." The doubts, women did not own land! What they were proposing, there was no basis for it, except the stirring of God's Spirit! Come on! Trust His leading! Even if it is ground breaking, crush that ground, destroy the barrier that has withstood all others!

Jesus, we commit to follow You, to stand and declare that which You whisper in our ear we will shout it from the roof tops!
