TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD
Jehovah commanded his people to eliminate from the Promised Land anything that could stumble them (Nu 33:52; w10 8/1 23)
Jehovah would bless their determined efforts to take complete control of the land (Nu 33:53)
Problems would result if the Israelites did not completely conquer their enemies (Nu 33:55, 56; w08 2/15 27 ¶5-6; it-1 404 ¶2)
To please Jehovah, we must eliminate from our life all morally and spiritually defiling practices. (Jas 1:21) Jehovah gives us the strength to combat sinful tendencies and resist the contaminating influences of this world.

Israelite vows were voluntary but binding (Nu 30:2; it-2 1162)
Vows may include abstaining from things not prohibited (Nu 30:3, 4; it-2 1162)
A solemn promise made to God to perform some act, make some offering or gift, enter some service or condition, or abstain from certain things not unlawful in themselves. A vow was a voluntary expression made of one’s own free will. Being a solemn promise, a vow carried the force of an oath or a swearing, and at times the two expressions accompany each other in the Bible. (Nu 30:2; Mt 5:33) “Vow” is more the declaration of intent, while “oath” denotes the appeal made to a higher authority attesting to the truthfulness or binding nature of the declaration. Oaths often accompanied attestation to a covenant.—Ge 26:28; 31:44, 53.
Jehovah now deals with his worshippers individually (Nu 30:6-9; w04 8/1 27 ¶3)
30:6-8—Can a Christian man set aside his wife’s vows? With regard to vows, Jehovah now deals with his worshipers individually. For example, dedication to Jehovah is a personal vow. (Galatians 6:5) A husband does not have the authority to set aside or cancel such a vow. A wife, though, should avoid making a vow that conflicts with God’s Word or her duties toward her husband.
The two most important vows a Christian can make today are the dedication vow and the marriage vow.
ASK YOURSELF, ‘Am I living up to the vows that I have made?’ (w01 2/1 pp. 14-19 10)

Zelophehad’s daughters request their father’s inheritance
TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD
Zelophehad’s five daughters sought to preserve the inheritance of their father (Nu 27:1-4; w13 6/15 10 ¶14; see cover picture)
Jehovah made an impartial decision (Nu 27:5-7; w13 6/15 11 ¶15)
We too must act impartially (Nu 27:8-11; w13 6/15 11 ¶16)
We imitate Jehovah’s impartiality by treating fellow believers with dignity and loyal love and by preaching to people of all backgrounds.

TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD
Israel was lured into wrongdoing by Moab (Nu 25:1, 2; lvs 118 ¶1-2)
Israel’s disloyalty and selfishness brought Jehovah’s rage (Nu 25:3-5; lvs 119 ¶4)
Jehovah turned away his wrath because of one person’s decisive act of courage (Nu 25:6-11)
ASK YOURSELF, ‘In what situations do I need courage to stand out as different?’

TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD
The Moabites sought to harm the Israelites (Nu 22:3-6)
Jehovah acted in behalf of his people (Nu 22:12, 34, 35; 23:11, 12)
No one can successfully oppose Jehovah (Nu 24:12, 13; bt 53 ¶5; it-2 291)
Nothing, including persecution or disasters, can prevent the good news from being preached according to God’s will. When we experience personal hardships, do we rely on our heavenly Father and keep his worship our priority?

TREASURES FROM GOD’S WORD
Moses’ meekness was put to the test when he experienced pressure and stress (Nu 20:2-5; w19.02 12 ¶19)
Moses temporarily lost his meekness (Nu 20:10; w19.02 13 ¶20-21)
Jehovah disciplined Moses and Aaron for their serious mistake (Nu 20:12; w09 9/1 19 ¶5)
Meekness is a mildness of temper, without haughtiness or vanity. It enables one to endure injury with patience and without irritation, resentment, or retaliation.
