Numbers 17:1-5 Authority

 1And the LORD said to Moses, 2“Speak to the Israelites and take from them twelve staffs, one from the leader of each tribe. Write each man’s name on his staff, 3and write Aaron’s name on the staff of Levi, because there must be one staff for the head of each tribe. 4Place the staffs in the Tent of Meeting in front of the Testimony, where I meet with you. 5The staff belonging to the man I choose will sprout, and I will rid Myself of the constant grumbling of the Israelites against you.”

Authority 

The staff is a picture of authority!

Exodus 14:16 And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.


The staff is a reminder of the Lord’s authority and the wonders He performed in Egypt to free the Israelites.

The staff, a piece of wood 🪵 from a tree 🌲 is the predecessor of the cross ✝️, the tree 🌳 that Jesus hung on to bring salvation to the world to free us from Satan’s death grip.

Matthew 28: 18Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.


Do you accept His authority or deny authority like the grumbling Israelites?

Blessings
