Discoveries In The Desert

Part 8

November 7, 2021 • Dr. Lance D. Watson • Exodus 3:1

Moses spent 40 years in Egypt thinking he was somebody, another 40 years in the desert realizing he was nobody, and his final 40 years leading everybody because He had discovered the One who could use anybody. To prepare him for his destiny, he had to trust the process, and matriculate in God’s University of the Desert. Are you in the desert? There are discoveries there waiting to be discerned.

Scripture: Exodus 3:1

Do This

November 14, 2021 • Dr. Lance D. Watson • Joshua 6:1–5

Facing obstacles is a common part of all progress. It’s not if we will face obstacles, it’s when and how that really matter. At Jericho, the people of God had to decide whether they would continue the journey to where God had promised or stop where they were. Would they move forward despite the obstacles, or would they once again retreat into safety? Each of us will arrive at this same intersection. God has not placed us on the planet without purpose; God has a divine design for each of us. Yet as we follow God, difficulties will confront us. The example of Joshua teaches us how to overcome the obstacles that would paralyze us and make progress by the grace of God. We are Saint Paul’s Everywhere!

She Saw Something In Me

October 31, 2021 • Dr. Lance D. Watson • Exodus 2, Hebrews 11:23

The word Exodus comes from a Greek word that literally means “the road out.” An exodus is a “going out, a departure.” That defines the substance of much of our spiritual journey—it’s about being moved out from one place and into a new one. All spiritual growth has something to do with leaving something behind. It’s about being saved from something, for something. God providentially positions people to aid us along the way. Today, we meet a woman named Jocobeth, a new mother in a situation of crisis. Despite the chaos around her, she saw something special in her new child that moved her out of despair into a perilous posture of hope.

Watch The Throne

October 24, 2021 • Dr. Lance D. Watson • Hebrews 11:22, Genesis 50

Joseph’s last will and testament about his bones’ final resting place in a land that only belonged to Israel were a testament to his faith in the promises of God. He is an example for us in that our hope of forgiveness and an eternal relationship with God rests on what God himself has promised. Nothing can thwart the providence of God working out His plan in His time. Joseph’s faithfulness advanced God’s plan to keep these descendants of Abraham safe and bless the world. On a personal level, years passed without confirmation that the revelation God gave Joseph was being worked out in God’s timing. God gave Joseph the revelation of the product but not the process by which things would work. He had to trust the character of the God who promised: just like us!
