Lost and gain

Numbers 17:1-13
The Lord got rid of himself of this constant grumbling aginst Aaron by the israelites.
This will put an end to their grumbling against God, so they will not die.
When Moses said to the Israelites, they said "We will die! We are lost, we are all lost! Anyone who even comes near the tabernalce of the Lord will die. Are we all going to die?"
Lost: to suffer defeat or fail to win, missing; not used to good purpose, as opportunities, time, or labor; wasted; dead.
Like all biblical miracles, the budding, blossoming and fruiting of Aaron's staff has a very practical point. Everyone can see where God's choice falls. THere is not more room for dispute. The staff is kept in God's sanctuary as a permanent warning.
Key words:
Miracle sing, Lost, get rid of grumbling, warning,
Why?
The Lord gave sign to all communities of Israelite, identify Aaron, Levite Tribe is the one chosen by the Lord to serve Him in the Holy Place.
The staff was not only sprout but had budded, blossomed and produced almonds in one night. Both of the procedures of staff are shown in one staff. This is not nature results, it is the work from the Lord.
The work had done by the Lord is beyond of human's eyes and mind, it is impossible to the world.
The Lord who helps his servant from the attaction, ceases the grumbling and gives them the honor to serve Him.
Most of the communities saw the terrible results, but they didn't know the authority and love of the Lord. Some miracles make people panic if they don't know the Lord.
Lost is not really lost but gain when we are get along with the Lord.
How?
Lost and gain what I have, may I lost the world but gain the gift of the Lord. Give me the Jesus.
