May 2, 2016 - Day 123 - WATER FROM THE ROCK

Exodus Monday (chapters 17-20)                                                                                          
“You shall strike the rock, and water shall come out of it.... And Moses did so..” (Exodus 17:6 ESV)

The Lord miraculously provided water for His people from a rock. Like all of us, they could not have survived without water. There is another Rock that supplies you with spiritual water without which you could not survive either. 

“For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ.” (1 Corinthians 10:4 ESV)

The Church’s one foundation Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is His new creation By water and the Word:
From heav’n He came and sought her To be His holy bride;
With His own blood He bought her, And for her life He died.
      (Lutheran Service Book, Concordia Publishing House, 2006, #644)

Thank you Lord Jesus. You are my spiritual Rock. Please quench my soul with Your forgiveness, peace, and direction .  Amen.

Drink deeply from your spiritual Rock this week!

Pastor David Paape
