Our Solid Rock

Today’s Through the Bible Reading: Numbers 19 - 21

There is no Rock like our God! (1 Sam 2:2) Jesus is our solid rock; the rock of our salvation (Ps 95:1); a sure foundation (1 Cor 3:11); our cornerstone (Ps 118:22, 23; Matt 21:42; Acts 4:11; Eph 2:20); our stronghold and refuge (2 Sam 22:3). He Himself is the Rock that followed Israel in the wilderness (Num 20:8).

For they drank from the supernatural Rock which followed them, and the Rock was Christ. 1 Corinthians 10:1-4 RSV

Like Israel, life can lead us through some pretty dry places. BUT JESUS is the LIVING WATER and extends to us an offer to drink and never thirst again.

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. John 4:14

Like today’s reading, only God could work a miracle and provide water in the wilderness. What a picture of Jesus, the Solid Rock. Only Jesus can work a miracle and truly satisfy our thirsty soul.

…as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. Isaiah 32:2

Jesus is the Living water, the Bread of life, the Light of the world, the Great I Am, which means our all in all, our every need.

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. John 6:35

Nothing in this world, as wonderful as it may be for a moment, can leave us satisfied or meet our greatest need. Only Jesus can give us everlasting life, quench our thirst, and satisfy our soul.

Dig into His Word today and feed your hungry soul!
