About this listen

In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Numbers 11-14 , 20-24, 27 and step into the journey in the wilderness, a story that reveals what it looks like to follow God through seasons of waiting, wandering, and becoming. As the children of Israel move forward, they are guided by a cloud by day and fire by night, learning to trust God’s timing in every step. Yet along the way, distractions begin to rise. Complaining replaces gratitude, fear overtakes faith, and comparison clouds their perspective. Again and again, they face the same choice: will they see their circumstances through fear, or will they trust in what God has already shown them? Through stories of manna, Moses’ burdens, the spies in the promised land, and the brazen serpent, we see a powerful reminder that what we look at shapes what we experience. The people who focused on fear missed the promise, while those who chose faith saw possibility. And in one of the most striking moments, the Lord invites them to simply look to be healed, pointing forward to Jesus Christ and the power of His saving grace. This episode invites us to consider how we are seeing our own lives. Because God has always been determined to bless His people, even in the wilderness. The question is not just what we are going through, but how we are choosing to see it. When we learn to look to Him, we begin to recognize that even here, even now, He is leading us toward something promised.
