Rod of Reproof

Read:  Psalm 32 / Proverbs 14 / Numbers 17 / Colossians 3

 

Psalm 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Proverbs 14:14 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.

Numbers 17:8,10 The rod of Aaron… budded… bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds... a token against the rebels.

Colossians 3:1-3 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth… Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

 

The Lord instructs us in His way

And guides us with His loving care. 

He knows that we are prone to stray,

So He reproves us then and there. 

 

As God displayed the blooming rod

To show that Aaron was His choice,

Christ’s resurrection speaks for God,

Who thus reproves us with His voice.
