Are You Thirsty? Exodus 17:1-7 01/22/2006 Dr. Dane Boyles

Are You Thirsty? In Exodus 17, God had recently delivered the children of Israel from the oppression of the Egyptians. They had only been on their journey for a month; yet with all of these examples of God’s power to supply every need, they still lacked faith in Him.

Are You Thirsty? They had seen the power of God at the Red Sea. They had tasted the bitter waters of Marah made sweet. They had been filled with manna and quail from heaven.

Are You Thirsty? This is more than a question of geography; it is a question of spiritual growth. Do you ever feel like you’re still at Rephidim?

Are You Thirsty? You’re still very thirsty. You still doubt the presence of God, which we all have the tendency to do, when things get tough. Rephidim is that place you are at when you are destitute and need a spiritual drink from the river of God.

Are You Thirsty? That’s the place we’re at today. You’re either there now, have been there, or will be there soon. So please take to heart these four spiritual lessons that we can learn at Rephidim.

Are You Thirsty? God Allows Us to Thirst. 1 The whole Israelite community set out from the Desert of Sin, traveling from place to place as the LORD commanded. They camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink. (Exod 17:1)

Are You Thirsty? God Alone Can Quench Our Thirst. 2 So they quarreled with Moses and said, “Give us water to drink.” Moses replied, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you put the LORD to the test?” (Exodus 17:2)

Are You Thirsty? 3 But the people were thirsty for water there, and they grumbled against Moses. They said, “Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to make us and our children and livestock die of thirst?” (Exodus 17:3)

Are You Thirsty? 4 Then Moses cried out to the LORD, “What am I to do with these people? They are almost ready to stone me.” (Exod 17:4)

Are You Thirsty? God Quenches Our Thirst in His Way. 5 The LORD answered Moses, “Walk on ahead of the people. Take with you some of the elders of Israel and take in your hand the staff with which you struck the Nile, and go. (Exodus 17:5)

Are You Thirsty? 6 I will stand there before you by the rock at Horeb. Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink.” So Moses did this in the sight of the elders of Israel. (Exod 17:6)

Are You Thirsty? God Will Not Force Us to Drink. 7 And he called the place Massah and Meribah because the Israelites quarreled and because they tested the LORD saying, “Is the LORD among us or not?” (Exodus 17:7)

Are You Thirsty? Conclusion: Have you ever felt the need for spiritual water? 13 …“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:13-14)

Are You Thirsty? 17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. (Rev 7:17)

God will lead us to water if we will follow Him. Are You Thirsty? 16 And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.’ (Acts 22:16) God will lead us to water if we will follow Him.
