Num. 16

Korah, Dathan and Abiram led a group of 250 leaders who confronted Moses and Aaron with their rebellion. They challenged the authority of God’s ordained leaders. This was NOT going to fly.

God Himself showed everyone their sin and openly identified Moses and Aaron as His ordained leaders. The Lord caused the ground to open up and consume them. Then, a plague took the lives of over 14,000 Israelites because of the rebellion. The plea and intercession of Aaron stopped the plague.

God ordains leaders, gives them His authority, and protects them when they are challenged.
