 Interesting to look out for women in Bible that
stands out:
 Esther, Ruth, Naomi, Sarah, Deborah, Abigail,
Rachael, Lydia, Mary & Martha
 How about the Daughters of Zelophehad?
 Numbers 27:1-4
All The Kings Daughters
 The daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of
Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, belonged
to the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. The names of the
daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah and
Tirzah. They came forward and stood before
Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders and the whole
assembly at the entrance to the tent of meeting and
said, “Our father died in the wilderness. He was not
among Korah’s followers, who banded together against
the LORD, but he died for his own sin and left no
sons. Why should our father’s name disappear from his
clan because he had no son? Give us property among
our father’s relatives.”
All The Kings Daughters
 Notice their names have similar ending
 Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah and Tirzah
 The syllableah, which occurs in each of these
names, is a contraction of the Hebrew form
Jehovah. They bears in her name the name of
God.
 Common practice among Hebrews with strong
faith
All The Kings Daughters
 These girls came before Moses and they asked
an unusual thing.
 Israel does not have an inch of land yet.
 God's promise that they would have the land,
they are already dividing it up by faith.
 Faith is the key note here. Is the one key to
obtaining blessing from God.
All The Kings Daughters
 1. Faith in ASKING
 These five girls emphasize for us that these
becomes our experience only when we act upon
it and that is, when we exercise faith.
 So often we give in before even making the first
step of faith. NOT POSSIBLE !!!!
 Consider these five girls situation
 They Ask. (Exp: Regency)
All The Kings Daughters
 We are all HIS daughters figuratively speaking.
We are the church his bride. Jesus is the groom
 God promise us his inheritance. (approximately
30,000 promises in the Bible)
 What are you asking for today?
All The Kings Daughters
 Matthew 7:7-12
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you
will find; knock and the door will be opened to
you. For everyone who asks receives; the one
who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the
door will be opened.
All The Kings Daughters
 Asking in Greek translation literally means to beg
 Begging is very different from asking
 When someone is begging, it is out of desperationthere is no other choice.
 If they don’t ask they will not get.
 Is about survival.
All The Kings Daughters
 Why does Jesus teach us that we must come before
God and beg Him?
 Does he like to see us grovel?
 Jesus is trying to teach that if you understand your
need for God, you would be begging!
 If you don’t, you’re like beggars who don’t realize
he should be begging!
All The Kings Daughters
 Without him, it is impossible to survive spiritually
 Is a daily affair because we need the strength to
face different challenges and obstacles everyday.
 We all have enough to handle daily and struggles
to go through daily.
 So why don’t we ask? Why don’t we beg?
All The Kings Daughters
 2. Believed in the Impossible
 What made them hope like they did? What
made them even think they have the chance to
inherin this land?
 Eveything looked against them. No one ever
contemplated such a situation.
 The law point the exact opposite
All The Kings Daughters
 However the offer of the land to Israel was not
made on the basis of law
 God had never said that Israel should earn the
land, but it was a gift of His grace to them
 This removed completely the realm of custom
and law to the relationships of grace
 Then, it was not law they were dealing with, but
love.
All The Kings Daughters
 The truth that grace can give what law cannot.
 What the law could not do in that it was weak
through the flesh, God sending His own son in
the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin
 This is what these girls discovered – that when
they were dealing with law, it was hopeless.
 Romans 8 – All Things, That is the limit of our
abilities to ask when it is put on the relationship
of grace.
All The Kings Daughters
 Romans 8 :31-32
 What, then, shall we say in response to these
things? If God is for us, who can be against
us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave
him up for us all—how will he not also, along
with him, graciously give us all things?
 All Things, That is the limit of our abilities to
ask when it is put on the relationship of grace.
