Exodus 17:8–16
We might not be facing a battle right now. But we all travel through hostile times in our lives. Some of us are very aware of the battles we face. Some may even think they are losing the battle or wonder where God is in it. When we must go through a hostile time in life, must we go through it alone?
Well the good news God brings to us today through His Word is this: Because the Lord’s preserves His people in hostile times, we can go through them and help others through in His strength. To preserve means to “protect, conserve, safeguard, defend, sustain, carry on and care for.” God proved throughout Biblical history His passion to preserve His people. Today we’re going to see one example of how He did that and how He involved people in His preserving action.
