God Will Make A Way | Life of Moses - Week 1 | Ryan Iverson | July 2 2023 We will be spending the next 9 weeks walking through the life and call of Moses. Often we don't get a chance to see the beginning and the end of a life in the Bible. We have the advantage of seeing Moses' life and learning from his failures and successes. We see that despite Moses and the people, God makes a way for His purpose to prevail. Today we are going to simply look at one of the main themes throughout the story of Moses’ life. 00:00 Introduction 01:53 We can look at Moses’ failures and successes. 03:25 Often, God leads Moses and the people of Israel into a situation that just doesn’t make sense. The impossible situations they find themselves in are challenging and difficult to process, but every time, God makes a way. 04:56 Exodus 13:20-14:2 07:25 It doesn’t makes sense! 08:44 Things happen in our lives that leave us clueless, wondering how that was necessary or important in our lives. 09:10 When things are happening life and you are simple befuddled at why it happened… 09:55 Where are you God? 11:04 God often leads to seasons that don’t make sense to make a way that we can’t see. 12:15 The remedy is biblical truth - but it’s often the last thing we want to hear. 12:58 You may not have caught this… 13:58 Exodus 13:20: God led them to Etham to the edge of the desert. 15:16 Why dod God lead us to this place? 16:30 There is a purpose behind your “Etham” dilemma 17:11 Exodus 14:1-2 18:08 Exodus 14:3-4a, 5-9 20:05 God told them to turn back so that Pharaoh will hear about it and chase after them! Then this happened… 21:03 God is working behind the scenes for HIS glory. 21:33 God is about to do something miraculous and make a way where there is no way! 24:39 Exodus 14:4b, 17-18 25:25 God is using this season you are in to DISPLAY HIS GLORY through your life to others. 25:50 Everything in our lives as followers of Jesus isn’t about US getting the glory, but God getting the glory! 26:36 Everything in our lives is about God’s glory, not our glory. 27:08 The things that don’t make sense, are the things GOd wants to squeeze the glory out of? 27:15 John 9:1-3 28:30 What is the purpose of senseless situations? 29:31 The purpose: God will increase your trust in Him. The only thing you need to do in this senseless situation? Stay put. Trust the Lord. Put your faith in Him. Trust Him. Know He is God. You are His. He loves you. He created you. He has a plan for you. 31:54 James 1:2-4
