25.09.13 (Exodus 17&18) “Rephidim”

 

I wonder if you have a “Rephidim” in your life journey?  * A place where you had come to the end of yourself and your resources…but God did amazing things, and you’ve never forgotten it? * Or a place where someone partnered with you in praying for you while you faced something very challenging and God prevailed?  Both those things happened for Moses and the freed Israelites in the early days of trekking through the desert following God’s cloud in the sky, toward a destination known only to God. So today, let’s visit their “Rephidim”... Exodus 17:1-7 tells us these 1 million people found themselves in the scorching heat of the desert with no water and no idea where to find water. Remember, they’d never been outside their slavery in Egypt! In response to their thirsty cries, God actually made water come pouring out of solid rock and not just a trickle, but enough for all these people and their animals!
