Today’s FeastMarch 30, 2015 – Exodus 18Sharing The Burden of Leadership
“14
I am not able to bear all these people alone, because the burden
is too heavy for me.“
Numbers
11:14,
New
King James Version (NKJV).
Dear Saints, Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Exodus
Chapter
18;
“Jethro
brings to Moses his wife and two sons. (1-6)
Moses entertains Jethro. (7-12)
Jethro's counsel to Moses. (13-27)“
- Matthew
Henry Concise.
In
today's Feast we
see no
matter what gifts the Holy Spirit blesses you with, or how God
uses you, it
would be
good
to
imitate
Moses here; “8
And Moses told his father-in-law all that the Lord had done to
Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, all the hardship
that had come upon them on the way, and how the Lord had delivered
them.”
Exodus
18:8,
NKJV. When God moves concerning anything be sure to give him the
glory. Our God is great and greatly to be praised. The next thing
I see here is learn how to delegate. Moses’ father in law, wise
old gentleman that he is sees Mo, taking the responsibility for
everything, he is working himself into exhaustion; “14
So when Moses' father-in-law saw all that he did for the people,
he said, "What is this thing that you are doing for the
people? Why do you alone sit, and all the people stand before you
from morning until evening?"”
Exodus
18:14
NKJV. So he says to Mo; Slow down you’ll have a ministry as long
as God needs you. If you don’t delegate some of the work though
you may not keep your sanity as long as God needs you. So as we
see here Moses believes his dad in law and delegates some of the
responsibilities that came with his ministry; “25
And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads
over the people: rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers
of fifties, and rulers of tens.‘
Exodus
18:25
NKJV. So as for you and I let’s keep the first thing first,
salvation through our Lord and Savior Jesus. Pace yourself because
God doesn’t want anyone to perish; “7
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of
sins, according to the riches of His grace”
Ephesians
1:7
NKJV. Share
God's love and the load.

To Whom Goes The Glory?
Today’s FeastMarch 29, 2015 – Exodus 17To Whom Goes The Glory?
“23
Then immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he did
not give glory to God. And he was eaten by worms and died.“
Acts
12:23,
New
King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Exodus
Chapter
17;
“The
Israelites murmur for water at Rephidim, God sendeth it out of the
rock. (1-7)
Amalek overcome, The prayers of Moses. (8-16)“
- Matthew
Henry Concise.
In
today's
Feast
we
see the people of God looking to Moses as opposed to seeing God. I
see this in many church groups today speaking about how wonderful
the pastor is, and
ignoring the glory of God. In the case of our Israelites they
seemed
more focused on Moses than God; “1
Then all the congregation of the children of Israel set out on
their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the
commandment of the Lord, and camped in Rephidim; but there was no
water for the people to drink. 2 Therefore the people contended
with Moses, and said, "Give us water, that we may drink."
And Moses said to them, "Why do you contend with me? Why do
you tempt the Lord?" 3 And the people thirsted there for
water, and the people complained against Moses, and said, "Why
is it you have brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our
children and our livestock with thirst?"“
Exodus
17:1-3,
NKJV.
They have their eyes on Moses (the servant) instead of their
Saviour
God. With all the miracles of God to bring them out of Egypt and
deliver them from the Pharaoh and his army they remain focused on
Moses. Don’t look on God’s vessels as if they contain the
miracles. They are sent to show the way to and the power of God.
Our awesome God. Just as the miracle of healing was delivered to
the lame beggar through Peter and John; “3
who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for
alms. 4 And fixing his eyes on him, with John, Peter said, "Look
at us." 5 So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive
something from them. 6 Then Peter said, "Silver and gold I do
not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk."”
Acts
3:3-6
NKJV.
We must always make sure the glory is God’s; “16
And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong,
whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes through Him has
given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.”
Acts
3:16
NKJV.
We need to keep the first thing first. Salvation healing and
deliverance come through our Lord and Savior Jesus.
