In Numbers 17:8 – 12, one rod ended an entire insurrection. What a powerful rod this was to have amazed, dumbfounded and brought to repentance the powerful forces opposing Moses!
The miracle of this rod was that it represented something impossible: a resurrection.
How could a dance date, separated from the tree trunk, polished and smooth, suddenly sprout leaves, buds and almonds?
Only by the Resurrection Power of God!
Christianity is the only religion in which its leader was dead for three days, then physically resurrected.
While all other religions are is mere sticks with man made claims to authority.
Christianity is distinguished because Jesus rod has budded. This budding Rod has persuaded millions that he is truly the Son of God!
They stand in awe that someone beaten, crucified and speared in the side could stand three days later and say,"All Hail".
His name has all authority over demons, disaster and disease (Mark 16:17, 18). We as his disciples can stand, holding the rod of the Resurrection in our hands.
Let us preach the gospel of the resurrected Christ to all creation and watch the Lord confirm his word with signs following (Mark 16:20)!
