TEXT: Exodus 17:1-16

DCLM Daily Manna 14 July 2021 Today Outline:
Sinners and avowed enemies of God’s people are never satisfied with a half-full cup of their transgression against heaven. They push their ‘luck’ too far, inconsiderate of the Lord’s patience with them to repent. At the end, their cup becomes full; it draws the attention and anger of God and swift judgment follows after numerous unheeded warnings.
The Amalekites, a descendant tribe from Esau, got a taste of heavenly chastisement when they attacked Israel, God’s people, at their weakest moment. The Israelites had just been liberated from centuries of slavery in Egypt. Now at Rephidim in the wilderness, they were in grave distress. There was no water and they feared for their children, women and cattle. The Israelites created a new challenge when lack of faith in God’s ability to meet any need led to murmuring against Moses. The Amalekites struck in this drained state.
Today DCLM Daily Manna for Wednesday 14th July 2021
But the cup of the Amalekites was full. The Lord did not only defend His children, He also vowed to wipe out Amalek from the face of the earth. He began with the epic victory at Rephidim. Moses, the servant of God, assisted by Aaron and Hur, got heaven’s support from their position on the mountain as Joshua waged the physical battle on the ground for Israel’s resounding victory. Triumph will always come the way of believers who cooperate to confront a common enemy.
The Lord signs off the Rephidim conquest by revealing another name of His – Jehovah-Nissi, the Lord our Banner – to remind believers that day and night, all year-round, all our life, we are constantly under His watch. He protects us from spiritual and physical attacks.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The Lord steps ahead of the enemy scheming to destroy His people.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 5-8
