Following God's Instructions
Moses did not follow God's instructions when he struck the rock instead of speaking to it as God had commanded. By speaking to the people and hitting the rock, it was a deviation from what God had directed him to do, which was to gather the people, speak to the rock, and bring forth water with the help of God's power. This deviation was a significant error, especially considering just prior he had followed God's instructions exactly.
