In the book of Numbers chapter 17, we see a story of God endorsing His servant Aaron through a miracle. Because the people were complaining against God-ordained leadership, God instructed that a leader from each of the 12 tribes of Israel should bring a wooden staff to Moses. God instructed…
3 Inscribe Aaron’s name on the staff of the tribe of Levi, for there must be one staff for the leader of each ancestral tribe. 4 Place these staffs in the Tabernacle in front of the Ark containing the tablets of the Covenant, where I meet with you. 5 Buds will sprout on the staff belonging to the man I choose. Then I will finally put an end to the people’s murmuring and complaining against you.” 6 So Moses gave the instructions to the people of Israel, and each of the twelve tribal leaders, including Aaron, brought Moses a staff. 7 Moses placed the staffs in the Lord’s presence in the Tabernacle of the Covenant. 8 When he went into the Tabernacle of the Covenant the next day, he found that Aaron’s staff, representing the tribe of Levi, had sprouted, budded, blossomed, and produced ripe almonds! (Numbers 17:3-8, NLT)
By way of the miraculous, the Lord vindicated His chosen servant.
If God has called you, people will come against you. That’s a fact. In times of attack, it’s tempting to try to explain yourself or speak up for yourself. Don’t. Just allow the Lord to handle it. He has a way of vindicating His people that is clear and conclusive.
When you speak for God, God will speak for you. Let Him blossom something that will demonstrate His hand upon your life.
