Speak To The Rock!

 “Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.” Numbers 20:8

 ____________________________

I wish to direct my message to all those who experience dryness of life. There comes a time in our lives when God brings us to a point where He requires us to do the most impossible thing we've ever done. That is to speak to the Rock, which may seem dry, hard and passive.

Moses comes to God out of a crisis in despair seeking help on behalf of the Israelite children after they murmured to him for the lack of water. Instead of God providing water to Moses, God sends Moses where water is readily available. God is not interested in spoiling us with answers. God is interested in exposing us to our answered prayers.

Guess where God sent Moses to? He sent him to the Rock. "Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals." Numbers 20:8

Take-home message:
In every situation God has manifested His revelation. In every problem, God has provided a solution. In every crisis, God has already given Christ. God is not interested in spoiling us with answers. God is interested in exposing us to our answered prayers. Whatever the rock in your life, never run away from it but run towards it. Then speak to it until the water of life gushes out. Do your best and God will do the rest!
