In This Family Nobody Fights Alone - Exodus 17:8-16 - Pastor Mark Potter
from Colonial Presbyterian Church · host Colonial Presbyterian Church
Pastor Mark Potter explores the theme that believers never face life's battles alone, drawing parallels between his own fight with cancer and the biblical story of the Amalekites. He recounts how the Israelites secured victory in Exodus 17 through the combined efforts of Joshua on the battlefield and Moses, Aaron, and Hur on the hilltop. By highlighting how Moses needed others to hold up his hands in prayer, Pastor Potter emphasizes the necessity of community support and divine reliance during periods of exhaustion. He encourages the congregation to memorialize God’s faithfulness as a spiritual practice to sustain future generations through hardship. Ultimately, the message points to Jesus Christ as the ultimate mediator and "man on the middle cross" who secures victory over sin and death. Pastor Potter concludes that salvation and strength are found not in personal merit, but in rallying around Christ as the source of triumph.Support the showThanks for listening!
