SETTING THE SCENE
The people of Israel are wandering in the wilderness, and they find themselves without water. They again grumble and complain to Moses and Aaron, but Moses and Aaron fall on their faces to seek the Lord’s help. This is the posture and position we should take in times of trouble. God tells Moses to speak to the rock once, and water will come out however, Moses strikes the rock twice. While God graciously provides water, Moses is prohibited from entering into the promised land. This is another example for us of God’s holiness and our sinfulness. As great as Moses was, he wasn’t perfect. We don’t need to be better we need to be perfect. None of us can reach perfection, but praise God, Jesus has been perfect for us. Let us never stop looking to Jesus and praising Him for making us perfect before God!
