[Today: Numbers 26] Are You Able to Go to War? In this chapter, God instructs Moses to tally the number of able-bodied men. It was necessary to know this number after a time of plague and significant loss of life. The men had to be a certain age, and it had to be known what tribe they were of. This speaks of maturity and placement. God wants you to know your tribe in the kingdom. He wants to bring you as Eph. 4:11-12 says to the full stature of Christ – because there is a conquest for you because you are ordained to take the territory of the enemy and establish the kingdom.
