Topic: Principles for all-round success
Text: Exodus 17, 18 & 19
Key Text: Exodus 17:10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Discussion: Israel were on the journey out of Egypt, but then came the need for water, God supplied, Amalek came to fight them they got the victory, God came and had fellowship with them, all this were testimonies of God's goodness,
These testimonies were not just a product of luck there were some underlining Principles, let's consider them:
-Call on the Lord:( Exodus 17:4 ) Moses was not like the multitude, he knew how to go to God, he went to God and God gave answer, the next time you need anything learn to ask from God.
Unity, Obedience and diligence: ( Exodus 17:10 ) Joshua was Obedient and diligent, he fought amalek, and
Aaron and Hur, united with Moses to raise his hands and Great was their Victory. When we unite great Victory follows.
Division of labor: (Exodus 18)
Moses was diligent, but he would have worn out quickly, but for the advice of his Father in law, diligence is good but division of labour makes the work easier.
Purging for progress: (Exodus 19) Progress is impeded by heavy weight, s also, sin is an emotional and spiritual weight, if we must go far we must drop sin far behind,
Challenge: the way to the top will not allow the weight of Sin, laziness, and discord, get rid of them and call on God, Great will be your testimony.
Prayer: Set my feet on the path of Success
