Good morning brother and sister, I guess we finally got to the part I been waiting to write on...Moses up in the mountains with God.... the peoples promise they will obey what God have told them... they already saw the powers of God... they felt Him...and they see His wonders... but yet they was hardhead children... this morning we come to understand why they was call the children of Israel instead the peoples of Israel..

Moses was gone for forty days (Exodus 24:18). This probably seemed like a long time to the people, but a short time to Moses. Certainly it was a short time related to the outworking of God 's plan for Israel....Oh Moses was with God... and when you’re with God brother and sister nothing else matters... you don’t worry about bills because you’re with God... you don’t worry about your children and grandchildren no more simply because you’re with God....husband and wives doesn’t matter when you’re with God... clothes, jewelry, shoes, cars, etc. is nothing compare when you’re with God.... oh brother and …show more content…

The people wanted gods to go before them, leading them to the Promised Land. They knew the Lord led them out of Egypt and they knew the Lord God had revealed Himself at Mount Sinai. Yet, they were willing to trust a god they could make to finish what the Lord began...how soon when we’re bless we stop praying... how soon when things are going good in our lives, we decided we’re too tried to go to church... we don’t feel like going to Bible class or Sunday school...how soon I tell you when life going good for you, you forget from where your help comes

    During the first night in the encampment and his experience during pipel’s hanging, the instability of Eliezer’s faith is observable. Nonetheless, this struggle does not equate to the complete abandonment of his trust in God. As opposed to weakening his commitment to God, the struggle aids in stabilizing his faith in the divine power. Moshe the Beadle asserts: “I pray to the God within me that He will give me the strength to ask Him the right questions” (Wiesel 53). This indicates that inquiring is a key element in maintaining one’s faith in God.

Though he thought that himself and his dog could get through it by themselves and they didn't need help, the man should have stopped and taken the times sooner to build a fire. It was below -75 degrees and nothing was going to stop him... until he thought he was going to get frostbite and he finally made a fire.

    Prayer, how man communicates and fellowships with God, is only briefly discussed in the last pages (207-08). The key to good writing is clarity. Tripp’s method of using various phrases to circle around an issue is conversationally charming; however, it starts to become wearisome when the reader desires to understand the point. These extraneous phrases combined with undefined and theoretical Christian jargon often cloud the message. Tripp’s examples often are not explained or resolved.

Because, if Moses in this life changing moment, aware of Gods presence, can make excuses for not wanting to do Gods will, this could perhaps explain in part, why the apostate kings would choose comfort and reliance on their pagan gods, in direct rebellion to what they knew was Gods will. While the book relates stories of other men who like Moses had a mission placed upon their shoulders, like some of the prophets.
