“This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the Lord, and he was sanctified in them.”
Numbers 20:13 KJV
The children of Israel parched with thirst, fought with Moses and accused him of bringing them out of Egypt to die in the desert, here at Meribah. They were getting ready to stone Moses and Aaron to death. At the last moment God told Moses to put his rod to the rock, for water. Moses, upset and resentful, hit the rock twice with the rod and water gushed out. The Lord was sanctified among them but Moses lost out in getting into the promised land for unbelief and disobedience. Today, however much there may be rebellion and people turn against the God of the Bible and His Church, still the Holy Spirit pours grace and peace unlimited, through the sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the Blood of Jesus Christ. May Jesus always be sanctified and glorified through us who believe and obey Him. Thank You Lord Jesus!
