Some Good Advice from Jethro (Exodus 18)

Moses father-in-law Jethro offers some timely advise on how to share the ministry load with other men. Leaders need helpers!

Then Came Amalek! (Exodus 17:8-16)

The children of Israel have just drunk from the smitten rock and now they face a formidable battle with Amalek. This account is rich in spiritual instruction concerning spiritual warfare and the power of intercessory prayer. The outcome of this battle was determined not by the warring in the valley but by the praying on the hilltop!

That Rock was Christ (Exodus 17:1-7)

In Exodus 16 the children of Israel were tested with lack of food. Now in chapter 17 they are tested with lack of water. God's provision in both events are beautiful types of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the only one who can satisfy hungering and thirsting souls. This section of Exodus also contains a real emphasis on the sin of complaining so there is much practical help to be found for our daily walk.

Gathering the Daily Manna (Exodus 16:16-36)

In our last lesson we focused on how Manna was a type of Christ the Living Word. In this lesson we study how Manna is a picture of the Written Word and the importance of our daily walk.

Spiritual Gifts Part 2 (1 Corinthians 12:12-31)

Continuation of the exposition of the Apostle Paul's inspired teaching "concerning spiritual gifts" (Vs. 1). This subject occupies Chapters 12-14 of the Epistle. Given the widespread influence of the charismatic/Pentecostal movement today, these chapters are as important and relevant as ever!
