Week 53, Day 2: The Rod of Aaron

Today’s Reading:  Numbers 17:1-13

Some thoughts from today’s reading…

In order to lessen the grumbling against Moses the Lord has Moses perform a certain task.  Moses ask for rods from the head of each tribe.  Each rod is labelled and then placed before the ark.  For the tribe of Levi Aaron’s name is written.  The next day Moses retrieves the rods and behold, God has caused the rod of Aaron to sproute, put forth buds, blossom and produce ripe almonds.  All in one night.  No one of Israel could deny this as a miracle.  So yet again God has given a sign to further show His selection of Moses and Aaron.  We shall see if this quiets the grumblings against Moses.

Question:  What miracle would it take to convince an unbeliever that God exists?  Or to convince them that they need to obey God?  Is there a miracle that could accomplish this?
