A BRAZEN SERPENT
The Look of Faith
After many years, the Israelites again tried to enter the land of Canaan. They searched for a route through a country called Edom.
Moses sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, “Please let us pass through your country. We will not harm your land or your people. We will walk on the road, not turning to the right or to the left. We will not drink from your wells unless we pay for the water we use.” But the king of Edom refused. So the Israelites had to go around Edom.
While on this long detour, the people again found fault with Moses. They said, “Why have you brought us here? There is no water and no bread except for this vile manna that we are tired of! We wish we were back in Egypt!”
The Lord sent poisonous snakes among the people. These were called “fiery serpents,” because their bite caused hot, violent swelling and thirst. Many people died from the snake bites.
Now the people saw their wickedness in speaking against Moses, for they were actually speaking against God. They confessed their sin and asked Moses to pray that the Lord would take away the snakes.
Moses prayed for the people as he had done many times before. God heard Moses’ prayer and said, “Make a serpent and put it on a pole where the people can see it. If those who are bitten look at the serpent on the pole, they will live.”
Moses obeyed God and made a brass serpent. Those who looked at it were healed.
Numbers 20:14 to 21:9
Caption: People are healed of their snake bites by looking at the brass serpent.
Parents: And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:14-15)
Children: 1. How did God punish the people for murmuring?
2. What did Moses put on a pole?
3. How were the people healed?
