1. Life!
Discovery
Prov 10:17 He who keeps instruction is in the way of Life! but he who refuses correction goes astray. (NKJ)

5. God Provides Food Exodus 16:2-4
The viewpoint has to change, don’t desire to go back like they did.
Many times a person will long for the old ways of bondage after they’ve gotten free.
Focus on the promised land ahead. Forsake the pleasure of sin as Moses did.

6. Meeting with God
Exodus 3:12; 19:6 show they were to go up the mountain and all be priests, serving Him directly. Exodus 19:13, they were to come up the mount when the trumpet sounded on the third day. Instead, they did not follow Moses up the mountain, but held back (19:16-17 and Deuteronomy 5:5).
Optional: use picture of Mt. Sinai

7. Friends or Slaves? Exodus 20:1-2
Guard Rails, not prison bars. Go full speed to your destiny by following the moral guidelines the Lord has put up.
Why the Ten Commandments? Because the people rejected a personal relationship. The law of Moses was for rebellious people. God disciplined them to preserve a people for His name and His Messiah. We do not want to go back to the law but forward to the Promise.

8. God's Presence God’s presence in their lives was necessary. Exodus 33
Each morning they opened their tent flaps and saw God (tents all faced Him).
We should start each day in His presence.
Praying at the end of the day only, is like studying for the test after you take it.

9. One must come to know the Lord
Bondage
Favor
Just crying out is not enough.

He must be more than Savior, but Friend.
