MOSES: Getting Through What You're Going Through MOSES: Getting Through What You’re Going Through We’re all on a journey. Everyone is going through something. It may be an illness, a job search, a messy divorce, infertility, bankruptcy, a season of loss, or a time of searching, doubting, or _______________. Getting through what you’re going through is never easy. There’s no simple “5 steps to get there quickly” manual. What we do have is the story of a man, Moses, who led the nation of Israel from slavery to freedom. Their journey goes down in history as one of the greatest (and most grueling) road trips ever… one that we have much to learn from as we seek to get through what we’re going through. Week 1: October 8-9 Group Discussion Questions 1. What’s the biggest journey you’ve been on in the past 5 years (vacation, mission trip, new adventure, new job, big home project, life event, etc.)? Any surprises along the way? 2. For the next 8 weeks we’re going to be looking at one of the most amazing journeys ever— God’s people, the Israelites, and their journey from being slaves in Egypt to being free in their own Promised Land. Their journey began painfully. Read Exodus 1:6-22. Then Acts 7:18-19. List the misfortunes of God’s people. 3. As you think back at your life journey, have you had a “but then” (re-read Acts 7:18) turn for the worse? A “things were going great but then…” moment? Without going into great detail, please share with the group. 4. In the midst of the Israelites’ painful plight (described in Exodus 1), Exodus 2 reminds us that God was at work. Read Exodus 2:1-10. God was raising up a leader/deliverer to get them through what they were going through. Go back and slowly read through Exodus 2, noting especially vs. 5-10. What “signs” were evident that God was up to something? 5. As you think about getting through what you’re going through, it’s not always clear what, if anything, God is orchestrating behind the scenes. That’s where faith comes into play. It’s also where others in this kind of group setting can come alongside us and offer support. What’s one way the group can help/pray for you this week? Moving Ahead: Read and reflect on Hebrews 11:1 “Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.” Week 2: October 15-16 Group Discussion Questions 1. When you were growing up, what did you dream of being or accomplishing? What happened to that dream? 2. The guy we’re studying, Moses, could have his 120-year life summed up this way: He spent the first 40 years of his life thinking he was somebody, the second 40 years learning that he was a nobody, and the last 40 years seeing what God can do through a nobody who obediently trusts God. As you think of those 3 periods of Moses’ life, which do you relate to the most? Why? 3. To get a glimpse of Moses’ early years, read Acts 7:20-22. What did he have going for him? 4. Read Exodus 2:11-15. Groomed to be Israel’s deliverer, Moses fails out of the starting blocks and ends up fleeing to a wasteland called Midian. There, he spends 40 years tending sheep in obscurity/solitude. Have you had a Midian-like chapter in your life? A set back? If so, what did you learn from it? 5. Go back and re-read Exodus 2:12. What was Moses’ error here—which way didn’t he look? Moses took control. He did things his way. As Phil said in the message, “We make a mess of life and end up in Midian when we take control from God.” When are you most likely to do that? Moving ahead: Read and reflect on Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.” Week 3: October 22-23 Group Discussion Questions 1. What would be the job you’d be least qualified for? 2. After spending 40 years on the bench living as his father-in-law’s sheep-herder, God speaks to Moses via a burning bush. Read Exodus 3:4-9. What was God’s message to Moses? Have you ever sensed God “speaking” to you? If so, how? 3. Not only has God heard the cries of His people in Egypt, but He also has a plan to rescue them. Read Exodus 3:10. What’s the plan? Put yourself in Moses’ sandals—what’s going through his mind at this point (he’s lived in a desert and tended sheep for 40 years and now God is calling him to go to the most powerful man in the world and take his labor force of 1,000,000+ people away)? 4. Moses pushes back. He’s not convinced he’s the man! Read his objections: a. Exodus 3:11 b. Exodus 3:13 c. Exodus 4:1 d. Exodus 4:10 e. Exodus 4:13 Moses was just like us when we feel overwhelmed or inadequate. He focused on his deficiencies instead of God’s sufficiency. God’s response to Moses is summed up in the 5 words found in Exodus 3:12. God says: “I will be with you.” What was the point God was trying to get Moses to grasp? 5. Is there a big (or small) challenge God is pointing you to…something God wants you to lean into? What excuse could you easily use to excuse yourself from that challenge? Pray for courage for one another and agree to hold each other accountable to step into the challenge. Moving ahead: Read and reflect on Philippians 4:13 “For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.” Week 4: October 29-30 Group Discussion Questions 1. What’s something that you started to pursue and promptly quit (piano lessons, dieting, a de- gree, a house project, learning a new language, etc.)? Any regrets? 2. Moses, benched for 40 years in Midian, has been given a huge assignment by God—go to Phar- aoh and demand that he frees the Israelites from slavery. After exhausting all his excuses, Moses finally agrees to GO! The people are pumped. Read Exodus 4:29-31. Pharaoh, however, isn’t. Read Exodus 5:1-2. Sum up Pharaoh’s response. 3. Has there been a time in your life where you felt like you were doing the right thing yet experi- encing the wrong result? Moses has one of those moments. He’s doing what God told him to do, but things are going from bad to worse. Read Exodus 5:6-21. 4. Again, put yourself in Moses’ sandals. How are you feeling? Read Moses’ own words in Exodus 5:22-23. 5. Life is full of quitting points. Describe one you’ve hit (or are currently hitting) in your life. What did or what are you learning? What message does God give His people in Exodus 6:6? How do God’s words “I am” and “I will” encourage you today? Moving ahead: Read and reflect on Hebrews 12:1-2 “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith…” Week 5: November 5-6 Group Discussion Questions 1. Have you ever got hopelessly lost on the way to an important gathering or meeting? Share your experience. 2. Moses and the Israelites are on their way to the Promised Land. After 12 months of plagues, Pharaoh relents and allows the Israelites to leave Egypt. The bad news? What should have been a 30-day journey turns into a 40-year fiasco. Read Exodus 13:17-18. How does the phrase “roundabout way” (New Living Translation) sit with you? Does God ever seem a bit pokey to you (yes or no…be honest!)? 3. The people of God had a unique GPS for their travels. What was it? Read Exodus 13:20-22. Pretty simple…move when God prompts you to move. But what happens when the cloud/pillar stays stationary? Has there been a period in your life when nothing seemed to be moving? Was there a lesson learned? 4. Read Deuteronomy 8:1-18. How does this passage help us understand and endure the delays we are facing? 5. One of the lines from the weekend message was, “God was more interested in them (the Israelites) showing up fit than He was them showing up fast.” Another way of saying the same thing is that God is more concerned with our character than our comfort. What is your take home or key learning from this study? Moving ahead: Read and reflect on Psalm 118:24 “This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.” Week 6: November 12-13 Group Discussion Questions 1. Grumbling or gratitude… which do you hear more of throughout the day? Today, what is one thing you are grateful for? Today, what is one thing you could grumble about (you have our permission to do so briefly!)? 2.

  • Exodus 202 1 Edition Dr
    Notes on Exodus 202 1 Edition Dr. Thomas L. Constable TITLE The Hebrew title of this book (we'elleh shemot) originated from the ancient practice of naming a Bible book after its first word or words. "Now these are the names of" is the translation of the first two Hebrew words. "The Hebrew title of the Book of Exodus, therefore, was to remind us that Exodus is the sequel to Genesis and that one of its purposes is to continue the history of God's people as well as elaborate further on the great themes so nobly introduced in Genesis."1 Exodus cannot stand alone, in the sense that the book would not make much sense without Genesis. The very first word of the book, translated "now," is a conjunction that means "and." The English title "Exodus" is a transliteration of the Greek word exodus, from the Septuagint translation, meaning "exit," "way out," or "departure." The Septuagint translators gave the book this title because of the major event in it, namely, the Israelites' departure from Egypt. "The exodus is the most significant historical and theological event of the Old Testament …"2 DATE AND WRITER Moses, who lived from about 1525 to 1405 B.C., wrote Exodus (17:14; 24:4; 34:4, 27-29).

  • Exodus 24 BIG IDEA: When It Appears That God Has Lost Control of His Good Plan for Your Life, Be Assured That You Are Not Forgot
    GOD, ARE YOU STILL IN CONTROL? The Isolation of Moses Exodus 24 Steve Holdaway, LifeSpring Church, 04.19.20 BIG IDEA: When it appears that God has lost control of his good plan for your life, be assured that you are not forgotten. Exodus 24:15-18 NIV When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered the mountain, and on the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from within the cloud. To the Israelites the glory of the Lord looked like a consuming fire on top of the mountain. Then Moses entered the cloud as he went on up the mountain. And he stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights. Exodus 32:1-6; Exodus 32:19-24; Exodus 34:1-11 Lessons from the story of Moses on the mountain: When you feel most alone, be assured that… God is working out his plan for history and for you. He will speak to you, but you might have to isolate. God will provide his presence in place of answers. Exodus 33:14 The Lord replied, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."

Title Legal Perspectives on the Slaying of Laban Author(s) John W. Welch Reference Journal of Book of Mormon Studies 1/1 (1992): 119–41. ISSN 1065-9366 (print), 2168-3158 (online) Abstract This article marshals ancient legal evidence to show that Nephi’s slaying of Laban should be understood as a protected manslaughter rather than a criminal homi- cide. The biblical law of murder demanded a higher level of premeditation and hostility than Nephi exhib- ited or modern law requires. The terms of Exodus 21:13, it is argued, protected more than accidental slay- ings or unconscious acts, particularly where God was seen as having delivered the victim into the slayer’s hand. Various rationales for Nephi’s killing of Laban include ancient views on surrendering one person for the benefit of a whole community. Other factors within the Book of Mormon as well as in Moses’ kill- ing of the Egyptian in Exodus 2 corroborate the con- clusion that Nephi did not commit the equivalent of a first-degree murder under the laws of his day.

  • Sermon Series on Exodus
    Dr. Rodney Ashlock Chair, Department of Bible, Missions and MInistry Abilene Christian University [email protected] Preaching from the Book of Exodus Exodus in Outline From a preaching perspective it might be helpful to divide the book into two parts: Exodus 1:1-19:1—From Egypt to Sinai Exodus 19:2-40:38—Encamped at Sinai Narrative action dominates the first section of the book with such memorable scenes as Moses and the burning bush, the plagues and the crossing of the Sea moving the action forward at break-neck speed. Israel begins in Egypt but will wind up at the foot of the mountain of God at the beginning of chapter 19. In between Egypt and the Mountain lies the wilderness. Israel will encounter the desert and the challenges it brings. Can Israel learn to trust God even in the dire conditions of the desert? The second section of the book takes on a completely different tenor and pace as the people of Israel settle in for a long stay (roughly a year) in the wilderness of Sinai and at the foot of the mountain. Hear both preacher and the congregation will encounter meticulous instructions and laws pertaining to life with a Holy God and with each other. Highlighting this section are such important pieces of scripture as the Ten Commandments (Ex. 20), instructions for (25-31) and the completion of the Tabernacle and Priestly garments (35-40) and the story of the Golden Calf (32). As preachers of the word of God we will want to pay attention to the shifts in scenery and the different types of genres in these sections.
