Day 77:Importance of Prayers Read: Psalm 58,  Proverbs 26:7-9, 1 Corinthians 14, Exodus 17-18 And Moses said to Joshua, “Choose us some men and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.” So Joshua did as Moses said to him, and fought with Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. And so it was, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses’ hands became heavy; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. Ex 17:9‭-‬12 NKJV http://bible.com/114/exo.17.9-12.NKJV From today's passage, we can learn a good deal about prayer and intercession. As we send people out, we must have the responsibility to pray and uphold them in prayer just like Moses did. When Moses was tired, A
Day 76: Rely On Him Read: Psalm 57, Proverbs 26:4-6, 1 Corinthians 13, Exodus 15-16 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you. And the people shall go out and gather a certain quota every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in My law or not. “I have heard the complaints of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, ‘At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread. And you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’ ” Ex 16:4‭, ‬12 NKJV http://bible.com/114/exo.16.4-12.NKJV From the passage above, we can see that God tests us to see whether we walk in His law or not. This gives us glimpses on questions like, "Why God allows suffering?" It is not that God allows sufferings per se, it may be due to our disobedience to His law. For instance, if God has instituted Sabbath and we blatantly ignore rest on Sundays, our bodies will slowly but surely gives way. We may not always know the reasons fo
Day 75: God Will Fight For Us Read: Psalm 56, Proverbs 26:1-3, 1 Corinthians 12, Exodus 13-14 And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord , which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.” But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. And He took off their chariot wheels, so that they drove them with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, “Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the Lord  fights for them against the Egyptians.” Thus Israel saw the great work which the Lord had done in Egypt; so the people feared the Lord , and believed the Lord and His servant Moses.
