Please read Exodus 17.

Meditate on verses 2a and 4a.
Therefore the people quarreled with Moses…
So Moses cried out to the LORD, saying, “What shall I do to this people?”
As you continue reading Exodus, observe Moses and his
leadership style. There is much to be learned from the life of Moses as he led
grumbling people from the land of slavery to the land of promise.
God freed the Israelites from the Egyptians with miraculous
signs and wonders. He killed a mighty Egyptian army, burying them in the mud of
the Red Sea. The LORD provided fresh water, manna, and quail. He consistently
made His presence known with a pillar of cloud and a pillar of fire. Yet, when
the people arrived at Rephidim with no sign of drinking water, they grumbled
against Moses to the point he thought they would stone him. Notice Moses’
response. He took his grumbling people and trying situation to his miraculous
LORD. The LORD told Moses what to do and promised to stand before him in the
presence of the people.
What impossible situation are you facing? Cry out to your
LORD. He is waiting for you to come to Him for His solution.
Pray Exodus 17:4, 6, 13, and 15-16 over difficult situations
in your life and the lives of those for whom you stand guard as a faithful,
prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, what shall ________ and I do?
Stand before us, LORD! Overwhelm our situations!
LORD, You are our Banner; You have sworn, and You will do it.
Because of Your name, Jesus~”
