Numbers 1:42-43 NLT
“Tribe of Naphtali: 53,400”
No one left alone
There is something remarkable about the census conducted among all men aged 20 and above in each tribe of Israel, specifically those eligible to go to war. Each recorded number was not only an even number but also concluded with two zeros. This detail serves a significant purpose: the evenness of these figures signifies that each warrior would have a partner, ensuring that no individual would face the challenges of battle alone.
While pairing individuals might seem straightforward, the real challenge lies in fostering collaboration. Each person listed must be not only willing but also prepared to unite with any other member of their tribe. Together, they must commit to working harmoniously to achieve a divine mission and bring glory to God.
Friends, there is extraordinary power in unity. Remember the word of God says, “One will chase a thousand, but two will chase ten thousand,” highlighting the profound impact of collective strength. The vital question we must consider is: Are you willing and ready to join forces with your fellow brethren? Can you set aside personal differences and focus on a shared divine task, working together to honour and glorify God? Your readiness to partner in this endeavour could lead to miraculous outcomes for everyone.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for ensuring that no one is alone. Please help me in my walk and remind me to work with others in Your vineyard to bring glory to You alone. In Jesus’s name, I pray. Amen.
