No “I” in TEAM

In Exodus 17, we see two powerful moments that reveal how God’s provision and victory are often tied to the people He places around us. First, at Rephidim, Israel complains about their thirst, testing God rather than trusting Him. Moses, overwhelmed by their grumbling, turns to God—who provides water from the rock at Horeb, a foreshadowing of Christ, our ultimate source of life. But right after this provision, a new challenge arises—the Amalekites attack, targeting the weak and weary at the back of Israel’s camp. This battle wasn’t won by one man’s strength but by teamwork—Joshua fought, while Moses lifted his hands in intercession, supported by Aaron and Hur. The lesson? No one wins alone. Whether we’re in a season of testing or battle, we need the right people around us—people who hold us up, fight alongside us, and remind us of God’s faithfulness. So, who’s holding up your arms? And whose arms are you lifting? Let’s talk about it in today’s conversation.
