2014 BSF "The Life of Moses" Lesson 7, Q6~Q7

THIRD DAY: Read Exodus 17:1-7.
Q6.
a. 
There was no water for the people to drink.
b. 
Because the Israelites doubted the Lord saying, “Is the Lord among us or not?”

To test whether God is able to provide.  (He Almighty?)
To test whether God really hears and cares about the Israelites. (He cares us?)
To test how long would God continue tolerant their rebellion and grumbling.
c. 
God let Moses stroked the rock, and water came out of it for the people to drink.
d.
Jesus is the living water whoever drinks the water will never thirst. The water Jesus gives is the eternal life. Whoever believes in Jesus, rivers of living water will flow from within them. The water is from Jesus, that rock is Christ.
Q7.
a. 
3 times grumblings & 0 time repenting.
1. Exodus 15:23-24; because the water they found was bitter the people grumbled against Moses.
2. Exodus 16:2; because starving the whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron.
3. Exodus 17:2-7; because the people were thirsty they quarreled with Moses.
b.
I’m indulging myself in deleting the works that I should finish earlier and put myself in more anxious situation.
