How big? Numbers 1:3

“The Lord organized the Church in a way that offers each member an opportunity for service, which, in turn, leads to personal spiritual growth. …“You may feel that there are others who are more capable or more experienced who could fulfill your callings and assignments better than you can, but the Lord gave you your responsibilities for a reason. There may be people and hearts only you can reach and touch. Perhaps no one else could do it in quite the same way” (“Lift Where You Stand,” Ensign, Nov. 2008, 56).

Result: Numbers 9:15–16 

• Numbers 12:1–3 - Why did Miriam and Aaron criticize Moses?• What attribute did Moses posses?• What does meekness mean?

President Kimball:  ”Boldly denouncing evil, bravely advancing righteous works, courageously meeting every problem, becoming the master of himself and being near oblivious to personal credit. It is not weak, vacillating, nor servile submissivesness.”• Meekness (Greek) = Controlled Strength

• Moroni: “None is acceptable before God, save the meek.” (Moroni 7:43–44)

• Mosiah 15:7:   ”He shall be led, crucified, and slain, the flesh becoming subject even unto death, the will of the Son being swallowed up in the will of the Father.”

• Elder Maxwell:  “Meekness is the subtraction of self.”• “A meek man is like water, which when it meets an

obstacle, rises slowly and patiently and ultimately runs over the obstruction and wears it away. The meek man is submissive only in the sense that he accepts the inevitable; because he submits to the will of God, he gains new strength, a new power.“ (Leland S. Monson, Look to the Mount)

• What is something you can do to develop better meekness?

• What events in Christ’s life showed his meekness?

• What else might Miriam and Aaron’s words in Numbers 12:2 suggest?

• Numbers 12:6-8 - What doctrine can we learn from the Lord’s response?• Case study about this doctrine: Numbers

16:27–35

Numbers 13:17–20

• The 10 spies’ report of the land and the people (Numbers 13:27–29, 31–33)

• The Israelites’ response to the 10 spies’ report (Numbers 14:1–4)• Joshua and Caleb’s report of the land and people (14:6–9)

Numbers 14:9-10 Look for a phrase that indicates why Joshua and Caleb believed that Israel could overcome the people in Canaan.Finish the story: Numbers 14:21–23, 29–33.

“You will encounter people who pick which commandments they will keep and ignore others that they choose to break. I call this the cafeteria approach to obedience. This practice of picking and choosing will not work. It will lead to misery. To prepare to meet God, one keeps all of His commandments. It takes faith to obey them, and keeping His commandments will strengthen that faith” (“Face the Future with Faith,” Ensign orLiahona, May 2011, 34).

“We may at times find ourselves surrounded by others and yet standing in the minority or even standing alone concerning what is acceptable and what is not. Do we have the moral courage to stand firm for our beliefs, even if by so doing we must stand alone? …“… May we ever be courageous and prepared to stand for what we believe, and if we must stand alone in the process, may we do so courageously, strengthened by the knowledge that in reality we are never alone when we stand with our Father in Heaven” (“Dare to Stand Alone,” Ensign or Liahona,Nov. 2011, 60, 67).

•• When have you felt that God was with you as you stood for righteousness?•• How did it help you to know that God was with you?
