Numbers 1:30-31

Num 1:30  Of the sons of Zebulun, referencing their historical lineage, by their clans, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and upward, every man able to go to war:
Num 1:31  those mustered of the tribe of Zebulun were 57,400.

sharing a relationship

57,400 sons of Zebulun followed general Eliab, whose name said “my God is a father.” This name encouraged a religion not based on fear, and a warfare not based on possessing a kingdom, but on spreading a family. Our life is not to be judged on the basis of the territory we conquer, our challenge is to make disciples like us. We are invited into a glorious family – a relationship with the Father. Sharing Christ is offering that great gift — a chance to know God, which is eternal life.

LORD, open doors for us to share our relationship with you today.
