Now, notice. Now, Moses smote the Rock, second time, representing that Christ should come to the earth and die again. Now, he had power to bring forth the Water out of the Rock, whether it was God’s will or not. Did you know that? Everybody will admit that it wasn’t God’s will. But Moses done it anyhow. He had power. God entrusted him to be a prophet. And He give him those powers to do that. And He found out that His servant failed Him, and he glorified himself in the stead of God. And then what happened? God dealt with Moses then. Didn’t He? Not with the children, with Moses. The Holy Spirit is given to a man, and gifts are given to a man; but you have to watch what you’re doing with those Divine gifts.
