Exodus 15:20–17:16 He is Bread from Heaven, Healer, Living Water, Banner of Victory

In this study:

  • Miriam joins the Song of Moses, a song for all times
  • God makes bitter water, which previously had looked so refreshing, sweet
  • Jehovah-Rophe: The Lord our Healer
  • How God provides, while at the same time requiring hard work from us
  • How the manna typifies Jesus
  • How mountain-top, emotional experiences aren’t enough to carry us through the really tough times
  • How some people really do turn out to be shockingly,  incorrigibly self-centered and rebellious
  • How God trained Israel to keep themselves separate from other peoples through Sabbath-keeping.
  • How God produced springs of water from solid rock and pointed us to Jesus
  • How the battle with the Amalekites teaches us the critical importance of steadfast prayer
  • Jehovah-Nissi: The Lord our Banner of Victory

Stay in the battle!
