As Christians, we should refrain ourselves from speaking against the LORD. Irrespective of what you have gone through in life to the contrast, never complain against the LORD
In Numbers 21:5-6, the Israelites express their grievances against God and Moses, questioning their exodus from Egypt and lamenting their circumstances in the wilderness.
They complain about the lack of food and water, expressing disdain for the manna provided, which they deem contemptible and unsubstantial. In response to their complaints, the Lord sends fiery serpents among them, resulting in many being bitten and dying, highlighting the severity of their discontent and the consequences of their actions.Numbers 21:5-65]And the people spoke against God and against Moses, Why have you brought us out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, neither is there any water, and we loathe this light (contemptible, unsubstantial) manna.[6]Then the Lord sent fiery (burning) serpents among the people; and they bit the people, and many Israelites died.
