-The Rock That Was Struck
Reading: Exodus 17:1-7; 1 Corinthians 10:1-4
When Moses struck the rock in the wilderness, water poured out to sustain a dying people in a dry and barren land. The Apostle Paul reveals that the rock was Christ. The wilderness generation did not merely drink from a geological formation -- they drank from a person. This truth points forward to the cross, where the true Rock was struck so that living water could flow freely to all who believe. Your salvation did not begin with your decision. It began in the eternal purpose of God, who provided the rock long before you knew you were thirsty.
