a study through Exodus on how God shapes His leaders

The Making of God's Leaders

Touched by Glory

7/4/2020

​Today we’re jumping back to Moses and his second 40 days on Mount Sinai with God.  If you remember back to chapter 32 and the golden calf situation, Moses had received two stone tablets which contained the Law of God, written by God himself.  However, in a fit of anger over the people’s sin, Moses broke the tablets.  Remember, even though Moses was a great leader and an example for us today, he wasn’t perfect.  Therefore, God commanded Moses to re-climb the mountain and rewrite the two tablets for the Israelites.

Joshua:  Walking with Greatness

6/27/2020

Before we move on from Exodus 33, I want to spend some time looking at an important side character.  We’ve seen him on the fringes.  While not the main character yet, his name is scattered through the journey from Egypt to the Promised Land.  His name is mentioned seven times in the book of Exodus, mostly in obscure references that you would never notice.  But I think that it is important to take a look at these references, because if we’re going to study how God shapes His leaders, we must look at the shaping of this man into the future leader of Israel.  Therefore, today we’re going to look at the role of Joshua.

Show Me Your Glory

6/20/2020

​Last week, we explored the power and profound meaning of what it means to be known by God.  We talked about how God honored Moses’ request because He knew Moses and shared intimate relationship with Him.  Therefore, the LORD answered Moses’ intercession with a change of heart and showed Moses His glory while protecting him from the pure beauty and holiness of His presence. 
 
After all that, I was prepared to move on from this topic; however, God stirred my heart and pointed out another perspective to this amazing encounter: Moses’ point of view. We never explored what prompted Moses to make that bold request to see God’s glory.  So let’s do that today.

Known by God

6/13/2020

“When Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the entrance of the tent, and the LORD would speak with Moses. Thus the LORD used to speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend.”
~Exodus 33:9, 11a
What a relationship Moses shared with God!  The Bible tells us that he spoke with God face to face as a man talks with a friend.  The intimacy of that relationship is hard to grasp! Obviously, Moses knew the Lord deeply, and more importantly was known by God just as deeply.  Today, we’re going to explore the wonder of being known by God, the access that allows us to enter God’s presence, and the power we have as a known child of God.

And God Speaks

2/1/2020

​The Ten Commandments.  The building blocks of Judaism and, thus, Christianity.  Many of us were raised with them, and were taught them from a young age.  They are posted in Sunday school class rooms and displayed in prominent places.  You could probably rattle them off from memory.  However, we must be careful that familiarity doesn’t breed nonchalance.  The Ten Commandments are not something we should take lightly.  They are the standards our holy God set for us to be a people worthy of His name.
