Many of God's chosen ministers work long thankless hours or they work in unusual manners or circumstances. We are often tempted to take the former for granted and to shun the latter.

There was an apocryphal work attributed to the Eldad and Medad, who prophesied in Numbers 11:26. Only one line remains from the original, quoted in another apocryphal work called the Shepherd of Hermas: "The Lord is near unto them that turn to Him, as it is written in Eldad and Medad...". This one surviving bit is almost exactly the same as Psalm 145:18, "YHWH is near to all who call on him." It would be really neat to know exactly what they prophesied, but most prophecies don't actually say anything new. They just rephrase or re-illustrate what God has already told us.
And the people complained in the hearing of YHVH about their misfortunes, and when YHVH heard it, his anger was kindled, and the fire of YHVH burned among them and consumed some outlying parts of the camp.
Numbers 11:1
Cry out to God in your despair, but don't complain. There is a difference. Nobody loves a complainer. Our speech is important to God because he has imbued it with some of his creative power. When we complain against God, we deny and diminish his power to act in our lives.
The story of the elders prophesying in in this chapter is inserted between stories of the people complaining and God punishing them to mitigate the ill effects of lashon harah. The people spoke lies, so God countered by sending fire to stop the contagion and prophets to speak the truth among them.

If Messiah Yeshua says it, it will happen. Rabbi Steve Berkson expounds on the passage found in Luke 8:22-25 where we see Yeshua and His disciples on a boat ride across the lake. This wasn't just any boat ride though. There was a fantastic teaching moment in that even though a terrible storm appeared that threatened to kill them, Messiah still had everything under control.
