What if God leads you straight into a place of lack? In Exodus 17–18, Israel faces thirst, battle, and the burden of leadership, all designed to teach them to trust the Lord. Pastor Paul shows how water from the rock points to Christ as our source of living water, how victory comes through prayerful dependence, and how wise counsel protects God’s people. You’ll see why faith grows strongest in the desolate places, why shared leadership brings strength, and how God patiently trains His people to rely fully on Him.
