Ask the Impossible

In partnership with

GM. This is Soul Food, the newsletter that’s like a piñata, whack it open and savor the sweet, sweet pieces of bible knowledge.

🌶️🌶️🌶️ Here's the sauce for today:

The daughters of Zelophehad had no legal right to inherit their father's land because inheritance was only for sons. Yet they boldly asked Moses and Israel's leaders for something never done before, a share in the Promised Land. God affirmed their request, saying "The daughters of Zelophehad are right", and changed Israel's inheritance laws so daughters could inherit if there were no sons.

The daughters didn't accept "that's just how things are done." They saw an inheritance and took it straight to the top. They didn't whisper complaints or accept their fate quietly. They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders with a simple but revolutionary request.

God's response, He didn't say, "Well, technically the law is the law." Instead, He said they were absolutely right and immediately changed the system. Sometimes what we think is impossible is just waiting for someone brave enough to ask.

Their boldness didn't just benefit them, it created a new rules that would help countless daughters in the future. One courageous conversation changed everything.

What "impossible" thing might God be waiting for you to ask Him about?

🔑🔑🔑 Key takeaways:

• Boldly asking God for seemingly impossible things can lead to breakthrough

• Your courage to speak up might create lasting change for others
