Additionally, God’s justice and also His fairness can be seen through the distribution of the booty. Since our God is just and fair, how should we live our lives?

2022-09-2545 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：To Vow Or Not To VowIn times of crises, people often call out to God and sometimes their prayers take the form of a vow. If God would help them, they would give something to God or abstain from something. Our text addresses various cases on women binding themselves with an oath. What about for Christians today? Did Jesus forbid His disciples from making vows?
2022-09-1841 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Shadows Of The Things To ComeChapters 28 & 29 is an entire calendar of priestly sacrifices. Daily. Weekly. Monthly. Yearly. These sacrifices are cumulative, and there is not a day when an offering is not made to God. Old Testament laws about sacrifices rest on the promise of land. That was then. What about today? What do they mean for Christians today?
2022-09-0441 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Lim Boon Seng：Observing God's Calendar(Numbers 28:1-15)We use calendars to remind us what's important and what needs to be done. In God's calendar, besides reminding people to spend time with God at various times and in various ways, we'll also discover that the list of offerings variously describe the majestic theme of God's unchanging nature and attributes.
2022-08-2850 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchWen-Wei Chiang： The Shepherd who happens to LeadI don't think "Leader" is a valid biblical title for those who exercise authority in the Church. Because, simply, God is our Leader. In the Old Testament, the word of choice is "Shepherd" for those humans we tend to label as leaders. In the New Testament, the most frequent reference to the disciples is "Servant". Whenever "leader" is used of people, it is almost always negative. Numbers 27 is all about transfer from one generation to the next. The first half of the chapter is of land to the daughters of Zelophehad, then of authority from Moses to Joshua in the...
2022-08-2139 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Inheritance Of The SaintsWhy are the daughters of Zelophehad listed in the census that counts only fighting men? This disclosure foreshadows the legal issues pertaining to land inheritance found in chapters 27 and 36. The inheritance concerns the land, which results in a precedent-setting decision. What about the inheritance of the saints today? What does it consist of?
2022-08-1439 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Preparing the new generationThe first generation that came out of Egypt has died in the wilderness. A new generation now stands at the threshold of the Promised Land. A second census is conducted, and like the first it heads the block of material associated with each generation. There are three things each generation must remember, regardless of their theatre of operation, even for our present times.
2022-07-3147 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Boon Seng Lim : Two Steps Forward, One Step BackThe Israelites were poised to enter the Promised Land but they fell prey to the reality of the catchphrase "Two steps forward, one step back". Be warned! When Satan fails at one strategy he will use another like he did with the Israelites and succeed! Is your Christian life also like a "yo-yo"? Guard yourself!
2022-07-2441 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Even More Good News (Numbers: 22:1 - 24:25)Much of the book of Numbers is one bad news after another. Starting chapter 21, we see the beginning of good news. Now, through a pagan prophet-diviner, there is even more good news. God’s promise to Abraham cannot be broken. He is determined to bless His people despite their faithlessness and the schemes of their enemies. Truly, if God is for us, who can be against us?
2022-07-1757 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Jonathan：Turning point: the beginning of good news.After the many bad news of judgment and terrible consequences, Israel finally sees a turning point in their history. Numbers 21 marks the starting of many more good news to come as God grants them success and victory.

Geylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：More Bad NewsNumbers 20 highlights the failure of the leaders. More bad news is to follow. There is the rejection of Israel by Edom when they seek permission to pass through their territory. It closes with the death of Aaron, the first high priest of Israel. Sin and rebellion lead to denial and discipline. Who can rescue us from all these hardships?
2022-07-0341 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Failure of the leadersThe forty years of wandering are almost completed. Only two of the generation that came out of Egypt will live to enter the land. Shockingly, numbered with the transgressors were Miriam, Moses and Aaron. Numbers 20 highlights the failures of the leaders, even the poignant episode of Moses’ rebellion. What can we learn from this?
2022-06-2645 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Kirk Tan：A Father as a Spiritual Head of His FamilyFathers are called to be the spiritual heads of their families.
With Job as a model for observation, inspiration and application, we see how Job lives out his spiritual headship over his family
by praying regularly for his family, living righteously before God and relating compassionately to his children.
2022-06-1243 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Jonathan：The Sacrifice of the Red Heifer The Provision of LifeDeath will be a reality to the Israelites as they wander in the wilderness. When one comes into contact with the dead, one will be deemed unclean. This uncleanness will separate them from entering the camp. The provision from the sacrifice of the red heifer, the pointing to Jesus Christ, offers them the solution.
2022-06-1242 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Boon Seng: God Encouraged His Appointed LeadersAre you discouraged even as you seek to serve the Lord faithfully? Both Moses and Aaron must have felt the same way when their leadership was challenged. They needed the Lord's encouragement and it was not denied. Being so encouraged, they pressed on. If you're feeling discouraged, there's nothing like an encouraging word from the Lord.
2022-05-2947 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：No Cause for RebellionDespite Israel’s faithlessness in the episode of the spies, God has shown himself faithful, when the promise to enter the land still stands (Numbers 15:2). But Korah took matters into his own hands, seeking the priesthood. What Korah sought by force comes by grace through Jesus Christ. Hence, there is no cause for rebellion.
2022-05-2245 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent ：Goodness of GodNumbers 14 closes with Israel defeated, ejected out of the land, which they rejected when the ten spies brought a bad report of the land. The entire enterprise hangs in the balance. Numbers 15 opens with laws on various offerings. Huh? What an abrupt transition. Or is this there actually a message of hope within?
2022-05-1543 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Jonathan：The Last Straw That Broke One's BackAfter receiving the reports from the 12 spies (Num 13), the people reacted negatively towards the entry to the Promised Land. They were so near to enter in, yet they forfeited the opportunity because of unbelief and disobedience. The lesson reminds us to constantly guard our hearts in our journey with God.
2022-05-0146 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Minority Report“Numbers 11-12 paints a disappointing picture of the people of Israel. They have now reached the edge of the land of Canaan. The spies are sent to explore it. What will they see? What will they say about what they see? “Is the land good or bad?” Behind this question, however, is another far more important question that confronts us even today.”
2022-04-2439 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Life Goes On“Life goes on” is often used after something bad happened, and though you are troubled by it, yet you must carry on living normally. Something bad did happen one Passover. One man, Jesus, died on the cross. But on the third day, something wondrous happened and the old saying takes on fresh meaning.
2022-04-1739 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchMr Chiang Wen-Wei：An Authentic Faith• We continue reading of the sin of complaining and its consequences.
• Behind the complaints is a dissatisfaction that may or may not be right in its motivation.
• We shouldn’t voice dissatisfactions indiscriminately like the people of Num 11. But suppressing because “it’s the right thing to do” runs the risk of one day exploding like Miriam and Aaron in Num 12 incurring the greater wrath of God,
• So cannot complain and cannot not complain, how?
• What does an authentic faith look like when I have genuine concerns and dissatisfactions in my heart?
• The key is honesty with self...
2022-04-1038 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Boon Seng：A Deadly DispositionThe complaints of the Jews as they were on their way to the Promised Land in Numbers 11 with its dire consequences of driving their leader Moses to despair and incurring God's wrath calls for confession and repentance because that spirit of negativism is a human deadly disposition.

The preparations are all in place. The people of Israel have spent almost a year at Sinai. They are now ready to depart. How is the journey to the Promised Land to be undertaken?

2022-03-1342 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Jonathan：Lest You Forget His Faithfulness_The Second PassoverGod commanded a 2nd Passover to be observed in the wilderness of Sinai. This would mark another phase of the Israelites’ journey. The Passover is an important observance to remind them of God’s faithfulness before and His faithfulness going forward.

Next is the installation of the Levites. They were cleansed, offered as a wave offering and given to the priests for the service at the tent of meeting. Lamps and Levites. What is their connection to the Church today?
2022-02-2743 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Boon Seng：Giving is an essential part of worshipAs with earlier and later lists/chapters in Numbers, some key themes are presented with unmistakable clarity and giving being an essential part of worship is one such biblical theme in Numbers 7. We don't talk about money every week but if you're tuning in, this could be something God wants to say to you especially!

What more can I do for God?” God replies, “You can become a Nazirite.” What is a Nazirite? What does it entail? According to Gordon Wenham, “They are the monks and nuns of ancient Israel.” What does this mean for the Church today?

2022-01-1634 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent：Preparation of The People of God“In the wilderness” is the more appropriate title for the book of Numbers. Moses is organising the people for their soon departure from Mt Sinai. A census is taken. The wilderness lies before them. What is needed for survival in the wilderness? This sermon pinpoints three things every Christian needs to take with them.

2021-11-2842 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Boon Seng：Come On and CelebratePurim is more than a celebration of the dramatic upheaval of wicked Haman's plan to destroy God's people but a commemoration of God's promise to deliver His people. Similarly, Christians today commemorate the victory of Jesus over Satan and sin by His death on the Cross! If you have never come to Jesus for your salvation, today could be the day of your celebration!
2021-11-2136 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent Lee：The Day of Battle“The fateful day finally approaches. Both Haman’s edict and Mordecai’s counter-edict sprang into action. But it was the Jews who gained the upper hand over their enemies. Likewise, Christians can take heart from Jesus’ victory over sin and death. They can fight the good fight of the faith.”
2021-11-1440 minGeylang Evangelical Free ChurchPastor Vincent Lee：Fight the Good Fight“Is holy war still valid today? Is it justified? Some nations and groups still subscribe to it.

So if you are troubled, never forget Who's in charge!

It witnesses to the political intrigues played out there that impact the rest of the empire. Queen Vashti is deposed and another is sought to replace her. Royal power is visible here. But is this where real power truly lies?”
