When Your Rod Bud (Temple Thoughts )

in #bible7 years ago

Numbers 17:8
Now it came to pass on the next day that Moses went into the tabernacle of witness, and behold, the rod of Aaron, of the house of Levi, had sprouted and put forth buds, had produced blossoms and yielded ripe almonds.

There were contentions against the priesthood of Aaron, there were many prominent men who wanted his position. The contention led to a rebellion and the consequent destruction of the families of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. To silence the rebellion permanently, God called for a contest of rods, and through the rods, He public announced His choice of Aaron.

Please note that the bud on Aaron’s rod was not a small green one, God knows that if the bud be ordinary, contenders will speak it down. Some will claim that it was trickery, so God gave them a bud that silenced all oppositions. A full blossom of foliage, flowers and ripe almonds, is a miracle that none can deny. All the rods looked the same when they were placed before the altar, but next day, one was a fruit bearing rod. God’s choice became clearly different.

Note too, that Aaron did not pray for the budding of his rod, it was the Father’s initiative to announce and authenticate His choice. Beyond the miracle therefore, all agitations stopped, the conflicts seized and the oppositions were silenced.

God has chosen you my friend, therefore do not be concerned about the rage of the heathens, be relaxed in the midst of their noise. Very soon your rod will bud, and the difference will become clear. The other mountains will bow before Zion, paying homage to the choice of God.
When your rod bud, you will be established like mount Zion, which can not be moved.

I celebrate your budding rod.

I'm sorry but that's ridiculous. Just because God saw fit to perform a miracle that Aaron saw doesn't mean that God will do the same in my life. I've never seen a miracle. You haven't either. What you wrote sounds good but it doesn't mean anything.

thanks for your comment, but speak for yourself only, i have seen miracles not only in my life but in the life of many others. God bless
