Numbers 11:4 says, “Now the mixed multitude who were among them yielded to intense craving…” 1 Corinthians 15:33 says, “Do not be deceived: Evil company corrupts good habits.” We are influenced by those we hang out with. God judged the mixed multitude first. His fire consumed some in the outskirts of the camp.

Numbers 11:5-6 says, “We remember the fish which we ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic; but now our whole being is dried up; there is nothing at all except this manna before our eyes!”

What provision has the Lord made for you in your trial that you are tired of? We need to take note of how our complaining affects others in our lives. Complaining is the fruit of bitter root judgments. Hebrews 12 15 indicates that when we allow bitter roots to spring up, we defile everyone around us.
