We will kick-off today with our final thought from yesterday, which is that boredom is for children. As an adult, you have to give what it takes to achieve what is before you. And spiritually is the same, you cannot afford boredom. Read the rest of this entry

Support, Not Replace

Exodus 17:12 “But Moses’ hands were heavy and grew weary. So [the other men] took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Then Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side and one on the other side; so his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.” (AMPC).

 

#3: The Solution To Physical Tiredness During Spiritual Activity Is Support, Not A Break. When Moses was tired with his hands vibrating, God did not allow Moses to take a break, God brought support. Read the rest of this entry

The Path

Psalm 105:18-21 “They bruised his feet with fetters and placed his neck in an iron collar. Until the time came to fulfil his dreams, the Lord tested Joseph’s character. Then Pharaoh sent for him and set him free… Joseph was put in charge… he became ruler over all the king’s possessions.”

 

2 Corinthians 4:16-17 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. These troubles and sufferings of ours are, after all, quite small and won’t last very long. Read the rest of this entry

Advantage

1 Kings 18:42 “So Ahab went to eat and drink. But Elijah climbed to the top of Mount Carmel and bowed low to the ground and prayed with his face between his knees.”

Hilltop

Exodus 17:10-11 “…At the same time Moses, Aaron, and Hur went to the top of the hill. Any time Moses held his hands in the air, the men of Israel would start winning the fight. But when Moses put his hands down, the men of Israel began to lose the fight.” (ERV).

 

Beginning today, we will delve into three things from the story in Exodus 17:8-16 (please read).

#1: Advantage Is Secured at The “Spiritual Mountain”. We cannot over emphasize this. The changes you want to see in the physical, some people will bring the battle to you in the physical. Read the rest of this entry

Battle Ready?

Exodus 17:10-11 “So Joshua fought the Amalekites as Moses had ordered, and Moses, Aaron and Hur went to the top of the hill. As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning.” (NIV)

 

I am a student of military strategy (military warfare), and I have studied every documented battle in modern warfare.

Exodus 17:11 “As long as Moses held up the staff in his hand, the Israelites had the advantage. But whenever he dropped his hand, the Amalekites gained the advantage.”

 

Today we start by delving into Exodus 17:8-16 While the people of Israel were still at Rephidim, the warriors of Amalek attacked them.  Moses commanded Joshua, “Choose some men to go out and fight the army of Amalek for us. Read the rest of this entry

Proper Place

Exodus 17:9-10 “Moses commanded Joshua, “Choose some men to go out and fight the army of Amalek for us. Tomorrow, I will stand at the top of the hill, holding the staff of God in my hand.” So Joshua did what Moses had commanded…” emphasis added).

 

We thank God for all that He is doing and teaching us this season. For the next few days, we will turn our focus from Exodus 19 to Exodus 17:8-16 (please read). Read the rest of this entry
