It's wonderful that you could all 00:00:53.21\00:00:54.92 join us to meet with the King. 00:00:54.95\00:00:56.28 We're about to open the Sabbath. 00:00:56.32\00:00:57.65 Come and join our worship time together. Auntie Cecily it's 00:00:57.69\00:01:01.36 just delightful that you're here today. 00:01:01.39\00:01:03.02 I'm so glad to be here Auntie Nat. 00:01:03.06\00:01:05.33 And hello children. It's so good that you're here to worship the 00:01:05.36\00:01:09.26 King and welcoming out Sabbath. And Teddy it's just so wonderful 00:01:09.30\00:01:14.27 again that you're with us. Auntie Cecily would you like to 00:01:14.30\00:01:17.24 say a prayer for us please. 00:01:17.27\00:01:21.11 Yes. Dear Father in heaven, we thank you for seeing us safely 00:01:21.14\00:01:23.81 through another week. And we just pray that you would be with 00:01:23.85\00:01:27.28 us. And we thank you also for the boys and girls who are able 00:01:27.32\00:01:31.02 to join us as we open the Sabbath. In Jesus' name Amen. 00:01:31.05\00:01:35.39 Amen. Do you know this is a great time to reflect on our 00:01:35.42\00:01:39.29 blessings that God has sent us during the week. And Chikkita 00:01:39.33\00:01:43.16 you have a blessing to share with us. 00:01:43.20\00:01:46.27 God has blessed me with a beautiful sister and her name is 00:01:46.33\00:01:51.01 Angelica and she was born nine weeks ago. 00:01:51.04\00:01:53.68 I know and she's a beautiful baby. I've seen her. It's a good 00:01:53.74\00:01:56.88 blessing isn't it to have a new family. Thanks for sharing that 00:01:56.91\00:02:00.02 with us Chikkita. And Auntie Cecily you have a blessing to 00:02:00.05\00:02:03.49 share with as well about our amazing God. 00:02:03.52\00:02:06.49 Yes. Remember about how we've spoken about how God is our 00:02:06.55\00:02:11.23 Deliverer and He is holy, and He is the I Am and he is 00:02:11.29\00:02:15.90 compassionate. Well God is also our provider. Later on we'll 00:02:15.96\00:02:21.77 study in the Bible how God provided for the children of 00:02:21.80\00:02:25.91 Israel in the desert. He gave them water to drink and bread to 00:02:25.97\00:02:30.71 eat and God provided for all their needs. The Bible tells us 00:02:30.75\00:02:34.78 not to worry about our life and what we will eat or what we 00:02:34.82\00:02:38.95 should wear, but that God knows our needs and He will provide 00:02:39.02\00:02:43.83 for us. That's a great promise for us to remember and claim. 00:02:43.86\00:02:47.66 We can also ask God to provide you with help any time you need 00:02:47.70\00:02:52.57 it. Jesus loves to hear our prayers and He wants us to come 00:02:52.60\00:02:57.41 to Him when we need His help and God also provided His Son Jesus 00:02:57.44\00:03:03.24 to this world for you and for me Jesus left His Father to come 00:03:03.28\00:03:08.42 down to this earth to die for our sins and He provided a way 00:03:08.45\00:03:13.92 for escape from the penalty of sin. So God is so good. God is 00:03:13.96\00:03:19.39 our Provider. 00:03:19.43\00:03:20.83 Amen. Thank you Auntie Cecily for sharing those wonderful 00:03:20.86\00:03:24.53 words of wisdom with us. Do you know another way that we can 00:03:24.57\00:03:28.24 worship God on Sabbath is through song. And guess what? 00:03:28.27\00:03:31.77 We have Pastor Rick here. Thank you Pastor Rick. 00:03:31.81\00:03:34.94 Hi again Auntie Nat. Welcome 00:03:34.98\00:03:36.31 children. I've got a song that I think would be really good for 00:03:36.34\00:03:40.75 Sabbath worship. It's called Don't Forget the Sabbath. Do you 00:03:40.78\00:03:45.19 think we can sing it? 00:03:45.22\00:03:46.86 Second verse. 00:04:19.45\00:04:20.79 Pastor Rick can we sing I Just Keep Trusting My Lord? 00:04:50.79\00:04:56.32 It's a wonderful song. 00:04:56.36\00:04:59.03 Pastor Rick, could we please sing Redeemed? 00:06:00.56\00:06:05.63 I think we can sing that song too. It's a lovely song. 00:06:05.69\00:06:09.10 Thanks Pastor Rick. That's great to praise God in song. Do you 00:07:17.87\00:07:21.84 know that Dr. John also has a blessing to share with us. 00:07:21.87\00:07:25.07 Let's go and have a look at that. 00:07:25.11\00:07:27.18 Hello boys and girls. My name is Dr. John Hammond and welcome to 00:07:27.21\00:07:36.75 Sunnyside, the Australian home of Mrs. Ellen G. White. I have 00:07:36.79\00:07:41.12 some interesting stories for you. Just come inside with me. 00:07:41.16\00:07:45.26 You're going to like this. Hello boys and girls. Welcome back. 00:07:45.29\00:07:50.87 I'm Dr. John and I have another story for you and this story 00:07:50.90\00:07:56.40 happened right here in the garden of this house called 00:07:56.44\00:08:00.98 Sunnyside. You know when she bought this house the land here 00:08:01.01\00:08:06.21 was so dry and the soil was so bad that they said you cannot 00:08:06.28\00:08:11.55 grow anything here. But she said yes we will and she started to 00:08:11.62\00:08:16.83 grow things. And she planted a garden and it started to grow 00:08:16.86\00:08:22.00 and the young leaves looked beautiful and then something 00:08:22.03\00:08:27.54 happened, something that every plant needs wasn't happening. 00:08:27.57\00:08:33.17 What does every plant need. Somebody tell me. Oh, I've got 00:08:33.21\00:08:38.98 some water. You know if you were not to be given any water or 00:08:39.01\00:08:45.05 food. Which would be worse, no food or no water? If you get no 00:08:45.09\00:08:50.23 food you'd feel very hungry for a few days, then you'd not feel 00:08:50.26\00:08:54.83 hungry but if you don't have water the last thought you ever 00:08:54.86\00:09:01.24 had is for some lovely, fresh water. And plants have feelings. 00:09:01.27\00:09:06.71 They haven't got any brains but they want the water. And you 00:09:06.74\00:09:12.15 it stopped raining and the plants grew up and then as 00:09:12.18\00:09:17.15 the soil dried, they started to fall over like that. And she was 00:09:17.19\00:09:21.19 worried. And she went out one morning just over the fence, and 00:09:21.22\00:09:27.90 Mr. Jones the gardener was working there and he said Mrs. 00:09:27.93\00:09:31.60 White these plants are so thirsty, they're going to die. 00:09:31.63\00:09:35.24 We need to have a wind mill. Now windmills are expensive. They're 00:09:35.30\00:09:40.61 tall as the house. You go dig a very deep hole and then 00:09:40.64\00:09:45.01 the big blades turn around and pump the water out of the ground 00:09:45.05\00:09:50.85 If you don't get a windmill Mrs. White the plants will die. Aw, 00:09:50.89\00:09:56.06 she said I've been saving up some money. She was very good 00:09:56.09\00:10:01.10 at saving money. She said I might just have enough money for 00:10:01.16\00:10:06.74 a windmill. Then she saw her son Willie who was a pastor walking 00:10:06.77\00:10:12.31 across the road. And instead of 00:10:12.34\00:10:13.81 walking across very happily like he always walked, his shoulders 00:10:13.84\00:10:19.11 were down, his head was down and when he looked at her she said 00:10:19.15\00:10:24.55 Willie what is the matter? He said, Mother, all the workers 00:10:24.59\00:10:29.96 at the factory they've been building and painting and 00:10:29.99\00:10:33.76 plastering and we haven't paid them this week. Why not. We have 00:10:33.80\00:10:40.47 got no more money. Have you got any money? She said, Well I've 00:10:40.50\00:10:46.27 got some money here for a windmill. Oh, Mother, we do need 00:10:46.31\00:10:52.05 that money. These people will go hungry tonight. They won't have 00:10:52.08\00:10:57.15 enough money for food. Oh, she said take the money and he went 00:10:57.19\00:11:02.46 and paid the workers. That night it was a hot day. It was so hot 00:11:02.49\00:11:07.10 that she knelt by her window in that room in the corner and she 00:11:07.13\00:11:12.67 said, Please God, we need rain. We haven't got a windmill. Now 00:11:12.70\00:11:18.21 in the morning she felt the breeze just turn a little bit 00:11:18.24\00:11:23.58 and she felt a cool breeze and she saw the clouds building up. 00:11:23.61\00:11:27.95 Then she heard the rumble of thunder and then it started to 00:11:27.98\00:11:33.62 rain. It rained and it rained and it rained and finally Door 00:11:33.66\00:11:40.46 creek the water went up and the plants were like that. By that 00:11:40.50\00:11:46.23 night, nnn (plants inching up) but the next day nnnn (plants 00:11:46.30\00:11:51.97 inching up some more) and by the day after, ohh, happy plants and 00:11:52.01\00:11:54.74 you now the next day, the post man arrived and there was a 00:11:54.78\00:12:00.35 letter. And she opened it. Out fell all this money. Somebody 00:12:00.38\00:12:07.16 had sent them money long before the rain started again and it 00:12:07.19\00:12:12.86 said, Use this as you see best. And she went out and she looked 00:12:12.89\00:12:18.13 at the garden and there were all the plants were very happy. And 00:12:18.17\00:12:24.71 Mr. Jones came along and he said Mrs. White, we didn't get the 00:12:24.74\00:12:30.31 windmill but God opened the windows of heaven. And boys and 00:12:30.35\00:12:35.85 girls, if you and I are faithful to God He will open heaven's 00:12:35.88\00:12:40.52 windows and He will bless your lives and you will be happy in 00:12:40.56\00:12:45.16 His service. Thank you boys and girls. 00:12:45.19\00:12:48.43 Hi boys and girls. Happy Sabbath Welcome to our Bible study. 00:12:48.46\00:12:51.67 I hope you 00:12:51.70\00:12:53.03 know by now to have your Bibles ready with us so you can study 00:12:53.07\00:12:55.40 with us. Kate, you're going to say a prayer for us to open our 00:12:55.44\00:12:58.91 study time. Thank you. 00:12:58.94\00:13:00.28 Dear God, Thank you for the children who are with us reading 00:13:00.31\00:13:05.11 your Bible. Please help them to understand what they're reading 00:13:05.15\00:13:10.02 and thank you for loving us so much Amen. 00:13:10.05\00:13:12.85 Amen. Thank you. Kate do you remember what we studied about 00:13:12.92\00:13:17.06 last Sabbath? 00:13:17.09\00:13:19.19 Yes we studied about how God delivered the Israelites from 00:13:19.23\00:13:25.83 the Egyptians and opened the Red Sea for them. 00:13:25.87\00:13:28.27 Mmm. It was pretty amazing wasn't it. It was a good study. 00:13:28.30\00:13:32.14 Okay. Did they have to fight or did God fight for them. 00:13:32.17\00:13:35.98 God fought for them. 00:13:36.01\00:13:37.35 He did, didn't He. It was wonderful. All right, we're 00:13:37.38\00:13:39.78 going to start off with our reading now and we're going to 00:13:39.81\00:13:42.42 start off in Exodus 15:22-26 and Ella you're going to read that 00:13:42.45\00:13:47.46 for us please. 00:13:47.49\00:13:49.09 So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea and then they went out 00:13:49.12\00:13:53.60 into the Wilderness of Shur. Then they went three days in the 00:13:53.66\00:13:57.63 wilderness and found no water. Now when they came to Marah 00:13:57.67\00:14:01.47 they could not drink the waters of Marah for they were bitter. 00:14:01.50\00:14:05.27 Therefore the name of it was called Marah and the people 00:14:05.31\00:14:10.18 complained against Moses saying, What shall we drink. So he 00:14:10.21\00:14:14.58 cried out to the Lord and the Lord showed him a tree. When he 00:14:14.65\00:14:19.05 cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. Then 00:14:19.09\00:14:23.73 he made a statute and an ordinance for them and there he 00:14:23.76\00:14:28.26 tested them and said, If you diligently heed the voice of the 00:14:28.33\00:14:33.67 Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to 00:14:33.70\00:14:38.17 His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of 00:14:38.21\00:14:42.41 the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians for I 00:14:42.44\00:14:46.58 am the Lord who heals you. 00:14:46.61\00:14:49.12 Wow. So how many days were they traveling for until they found 00:14:49.15\00:14:53.49 water? What did we just read? Three. Three days. Aunt Cecily 00:14:53.52\00:14:57.89 can you show us on the map where Marah is and Rameses is at the 00:14:57.93\00:15:01.16 top where they came from so they've come a long way haven't 00:15:01.20\00:15:04.37 they? Mmm. So was the water fit for drinking? No. Was it bitter? 00:15:04.40\00:15:10.97 Yes. It was. Do you think that made the Israelites happy or 00:15:11.01\00:15:14.51 sad? Sad. Sad. They weren't happy at all and they all 00:15:14.54\00:15:18.28 complained to Moses. Now when you have over a million people 00:15:18.31\00:15:22.28 complaining about their thirst, there's only one thing to do and 00:15:22.32\00:15:26.82 that's what Moses did. He asked God and God told him to throw a 00:15:26.86\00:15:31.03 certain tree into the waters and they became sweet to drink. 00:15:31.06\00:15:35.16 Isn't God good? Yeah. He's so good. He provided for their 00:15:35.23\00:15:39.30 needs. Okay, Nick. You're going to read for us now. 00:15:39.33\00:15:42.20 Exodus 16:1-3 00:15:42.24\00:15:45.41 And they journeyed from Elim and all the congregation of the 00:15:45.44\00:15:48.88 children of Israel came to the Wilderness of Sin which is 00:15:48.91\00:15:52.61 between Elim and Sinai on the fifteenth day of the second 00:15:52.65\00:15:56.42 month after they departed from the land of Egypt. Then the 00:15:56.45\00:15:59.69 whole congregation of the children of Israel complained 00:15:59.72\00:16:02.92 against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness. And the children of 00:16:02.96\00:16:07.13 Israel said to them, Oh that we had died in the hand of the Lord 00:16:07.16\00:16:11.50 in the land of Egypt when we sat by the pots of meat and when we 00:16:11.53\00:16:15.37 ate bread to the full. For you have brought us out here in the 00:16:15.40\00:16:19.24 wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger. 00:16:19.27\00:16:24.28 Mmm. So now the children of Israel are complaining of being 00:16:24.31\00:16:28.78 hungry. Elijah you're going to read for us next, Exodus 16:4. 00:16:28.82\00:16:33.05 Then the Lord said to Moses, Behold I will rain bread from 00:16:33.09\00:16:36.76 heaven for you and the people shall go out and gather a 00:16:36.79\00:16:40.40 certain quota every day that I may test them whether they will 00:16:40.46\00:16:44.77 walk in my law or not. 00:16:44.80\00:16:46.40 Wow! Bread from heaven. I wonder what's all about. Kate, you have 00:16:46.43\00:16:50.04 our next reading. Let's find out what the bread from heaven is. 00:16:50.11\00:16:53.68 Exodus 16:11-15. 00:16:53.71\00:16:56.85 And the Lord spoke to Moses saying, I have heard the 00:16:56.88\00:17:00.98 complaints of the children of Israel. Speak to them saying, 00:17:01.02\00:17:04.55 At twilight you shall eat meat and in the morning you shall be 00:17:04.59\00:17:08.12 filled with bread and you shall know that I am the Lord your God 00:17:08.16\00:17:12.59 So it was that quails came up at evening and covered the camp and 00:17:12.63\00:17:16.97 covered the camp and in the morning the dew lay all around 00:17:17.00\00:17:21.80 the camp. And when the layer of dew lifted, on the surface of 00:17:21.84\00:17:26.37 the wilderness was a small round substance as fine as frost on 00:17:26.41\00:17:30.78 the ground. So when the children of Israel saw it they said to 00:17:30.81\00:17:35.45 one another what is it for they did not know what it was and 00:17:35.48\00:17:39.15 Moses said to them, This is the bread which the Lord has given 00:17:39.22\00:17:42.86 you to eat. 00:17:42.89\00:17:46.06 Mmm. So God heard their pleas for hunger and had sent them 00:17:46.09\00:17:48.70 some quail, just that one particular evening, and some 00:17:48.73\00:17:51.27 bread every morning. God is so good. He provides for our needs. 00:17:51.30\00:17:55.64 Let's read our memory verse together and that's found in 00:17:55.67\00:17:59.87 Philippians 4:19. And children at home, that's in the New 00:17:59.91\00:18:04.05 Testament towards the end. So let's read that Philippians 4:19 00:18:04.08\00:18:08.15 together. 00:18:08.18\00:18:10.15 And my God shall supply all your needs according to His 00:18:10.19\00:18:16.42 riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 00:18:16.49\00:18:20.60 Amen. Now there were some special instructions about 00:18:20.63\00:18:24.37 gathering the bread every morning and Ben, you're going 00:18:24.40\00:18:28.10 to read that for us in Exodus 16:16-21. 00:18:28.14\00:18:33.54 This is the thing which the Lord has commanded. Let every man 00:18:33.58\00:18:37.58 gather it according to each one's need, one omer for each 00:18:37.61\00:18:41.35 person according to the number of persons, let every man take 00:18:41.38\00:18:45.45 for those who are in his tent. Then the children of Israel did 00:18:45.49\00:18:49.46 so and gathered some more, some less. So when they measured it 00:18:49.49\00:18:53.29 by omers he who had gathered much had nothing left over and 00:18:53.33\00:18:57.07 he who had gathered little had no lack. Every man had gathered 00:18:57.10\00:19:01.14 according to each one's need. And Moses said let no one leave 00:19:01.17\00:19:05.21 any of it until morning. Notwithstanding, they did not 00:19:05.24\00:19:09.31 heed Moses. Some of them left part of it until morning and it 00:19:09.34\00:19:13.42 bred worms and stank. And Moses was angry with them. So they 00:19:13.45\00:19:17.12 gathered it every morning, every man according to his need and 00:19:17.15\00:19:20.79 when the sun became hot it melted. 00:19:20.82\00:19:23.02 Mmm. So the Bible tells us they had to collect one omer per day 00:19:23.06\00:19:27.70 per person. They also had to trust God that He would provide 00:19:27.76\00:19:31.73 for them the next day. Because what happened if they collected 00:19:31.77\00:19:35.74 more than they needed. What happened to it? 00:19:35.77\00:19:38.77 Yeah, it bred worms and stank, which wouldn't have been very 00:19:38.81\00:19:43.98 nice would have it. And we have here, Auntie Nat has been busy 00:19:44.01\00:19:47.38 researching and I discovered that one omer is about 2.2 or 00:19:47.42\00:19:53.05 two and a half liters and that is about 2.2 liters of manna 00:19:53.12\00:19:58.19 of bread from heaven. And you can see that that was what had 00:19:58.23\00:20:03.77 to last you for the whole day. Do you think that's enough? 00:20:03.80\00:20:09.30 It's not enough. 00:20:09.34\00:20:10.67 Yeah, it's hard to now isn't it. You know what when we continue 00:20:10.71\00:20:13.94 reading we'll find out that it probably was just enough. Okay. 00:20:13.98\00:20:17.35 But there were some special instructions about collecting 00:20:17.38\00:20:20.32 the bread for Sabbath. Let's read that Sarah. Can you read 00:20:20.35\00:20:23.22 Exodus 16:22-27 for us please. 00:20:23.25\00:20:27.89 And so it was on the sixth day they gathered twice as much 00:20:27.92\00:20:32.96 bread, two omers for each one. And all the rulers of the 00:20:32.99\00:20:37.97 congregation came and told Moses Then he said to them, This is 00:20:38.00\00:20:42.27 what the Lord has said, tomorrow is a Sabbath rest a holy Sabbath 00:20:42.30\00:20:46.54 to the Lord. Bake what you will bake today and boil what you 00:20:46.57\00:20:50.55 will boil and lay up for yourselves all that remains to 00:20:50.58\00:20:54.12 be kept until morning. So they laid it up till morning as Moses 00:20:54.18\00:20:59.12 commanded and it did not stink nor were there any worms in it. 00:20:59.15\00:21:03.69 Then Moses said, eat that today for today is a Sabbath to the 00:21:03.73\00:21:08.26 Lord. Today you will not find it in the field. Six days you 00:21:08.30\00:21:11.87 shall gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there 00:21:11.90\00:21:15.74 will be none. Now it happened that some of the people went out 00:21:15.77\00:21:19.57 on the seventh day to gather, but they found none. 00:21:19.61\00:21:22.18 So God is instructing through Moses that the people had to 00:21:22.21\00:21:26.48 gather on Friday two omers each. So you can imagine, that was 00:21:26.51\00:21:30.52 what they had to gather every day, but on the Friday they had 00:21:30.59\00:21:34.82 to gather two of those to last for the Sabbath day, because 00:21:34.86\00:21:39.89 there was not going to be any bread on the ground on Sabbath. 00:21:39.93\00:21:43.43 Now in verse 24 what does the Bible tell us happened to the 00:21:43.47\00:21:47.57 bread. Did it breed worms and stink like on the other days. 00:21:47.64\00:21:50.61 No God preserved the bread that had to be collected the day 00:21:50.67\00:21:54.08 before, before Sabbath. Did God want them to work on Sabbath 00:21:54.11\00:21:57.45 and spend time collecting food. No, He wanted them to rest and 00:21:57.48\00:22:01.95 spend time worshipping Him. Sarah you have a Torch Light to 00:22:01.98\00:22:06.19 read for us so that we can see what Ellen White writes to 00:22:06.22\00:22:10.63 explain that verse a bit better. Thank you very much. 00:22:10.69\00:22:15.06 In being obliged to gather every 00:22:15.10\00:22:17.33 Friday a double portion of manna 00:22:17.37\00:22:19.50 in preparation for the Sabbath when none would fall, the sacred 00:22:19.53\00:22:23.71 nature of the day of rest was continually impressed upon them. 00:22:23.77\00:22:27.94 Wow. So God performed this miracle every week for the next 00:22:27.98\00:22:31.71 forty years so this specialness of the Sabbath left a very 00:22:31.75\00:22:35.45 deep impression for them. Aunt Cecily you're going to read for 00:22:35.48\00:22:39.89 us now Exodus 16:31. This will tell us what they named the 00:22:39.92\00:22:44.03 bread and I think Auntie Nat's given it away a little bit. 00:22:44.09\00:22:48.76 And the house of Israel called its name manna and it was like 00:22:48.80\00:22:53.60 white coriander seed and the taste of it was like wafers made 00:22:53.64\00:22:58.37 with honey. 00:22:58.41\00:22:59.74 Oh, now let's look at another verse. Elle you've got a verse 00:22:59.77\00:23:04.78 for us found in Psalm 78:23-25 and that tells us something else 00:23:04.81\00:23:10.19 about the manna. 00:23:10.22\00:23:11.55 Yet he had commanded the clouds above and opened the doors of 00:23:11.59\00:23:14.72 heaven and rained down manna on them to eat and had given them 00:23:14.76\00:23:18.93 of the bread of heaven. Men ate angels' food. He sent them food 00:23:18.96\00:23:23.13 to the full. 00:23:23.16\00:23:26.00 Wow! The Bible calls the manna angels' food. So looking at the 00:23:26.03\00:23:30.07 amount, I mean we do eat an awful lot. We live in a very 00:23:30.11\00:23:34.28 abundant country and we might look at that thing that's got to 00:23:34.34\00:23:37.08 last me all day. Do you think that's enough? But I think the 00:23:37.11\00:23:40.18 fact it was angels' food and it was sent from heaven I think it 00:23:40.22\00:23:43.59 was a pretty perfect food and I think it would have been very 00:23:43.62\00:23:46.39 substantial and I think it would have kept their tummies full. 00:23:46.42\00:23:49.19 Because I think God's really good. So again there was no 00:23:49.22\00:23:52.93 water and the people complained against Moses. Moses cried out 00:23:52.96\00:23:56.06 out to the Lord for help. Let's see what happens next. Elijah 00:23:56.10\00:23:59.17 you're going to read for us Exodus 17:5-7. 00:23:59.23\00:24:02.14 And the Lord said to Moses, Go on before the people and take 00:24:02.17\00:24:06.24 with you some of the elders of Israel. Also take in your hand 00:24:06.27\00:24:10.85 your rod with which you struck the river, and go. Behold I will 00:24:10.88\00:24:15.45 stand before you there on the rock in Horeb and you shall 00:24:15.48\00:24:19.15 strike the rock and water may come out of it and the people 00:24:19.19\00:24:22.59 may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the Elders of 00:24:22.62\00:24:25.99 Israel. So he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah, 00:24:26.03\00:24:29.30 because of the contention of the children of Israel and because 00:24:29.36\00:24:32.60 they tempted the Lord saying is the Lord among us or not? 00:24:32.63\00:24:36.10 Mmm. So God provided again for the children of Israel. 00:24:36.17\00:24:39.57 He brought water out of a rock. Enough for the whole encampment. 00:24:39.61\00:24:44.81 So let's go over what God did for the children of Israel 00:24:44.85\00:24:47.35 today. First He turned the bitter waters into the sweet 00:24:47.38\00:24:49.82 waters. Then he gave them manna every day, every morning to eat. 00:24:49.85\00:24:55.29 And thirdly He preserved the manna that they collected on 00:24:55.32\00:24:59.23 Friday so it was fit to eat on Sabbath so they could keep the 00:24:59.26\00:25:04.20 Sabbath holy and fourthly, He brought water out of the rock. 00:25:04.23\00:25:09.17 Do you know God loves us despite ourselves. We can be 00:25:09.20\00:25:10.91 ungrateful, we can complain and 00:25:10.94\00:25:13.44 we can forget the many blessings that God provides for us each 00:25:13.48\00:25:16.88 day, but God bears long with us. He is so patient. What do you 00:25:16.95\00:25:20.32 think? Do you think He's a patient God? Yes. He is. 00:25:20.35\00:25:23.39 Thank you boys and girls for studying with us today. 00:25:23.42\00:25:26.35 Remember God loves you so much. Pray and ask God to help you 00:25:26.39\00:25:29.29 to be more thankful for what God does for you each and every day. 00:25:29.32\00:25:33.40 We have a seven day devotional that expands on what we've 00:25:33.46\00:25:35.93 studied today.

So hop online today. 00:25:59.09\00:26:04.63 Keeping the Sabbath week by week helps strengthen our faith in 00:26:04.66\00:26:08.60 trusting God. One way to build our trust is to read and study 00:26:08.63\00:26:12.97 our Bibles. The Bible's filled with wonderful faith-building 00:26:13.00\00:26:16.97 stories that help us with our walk with the Lord. We want to 00:26:17.01\00:26:20.44 encourage you to read your Bibles, not just on the Sabbath 00:26:20.48\00:26:23.85 day, but every day. Auntie Nat, would you tell us about what we 00:26:23.91\00:26:28.75 are going to study next week. 00:26:28.78\00:26:30.12 Yes, I'd love to. Next Sabbath we're going to study in the 00:26:30.15\00:26:33.72 Bible about some very, very special laws that God gave to 00:26:33.76\00:26:37.26 Moses and to the children of Israel. Don't miss it. 00:26:37.29\00:26:40.70 We want to see you back again next week. Auntie Cecily, shall 00:26:40.73\00:26:43.77 we go over our memory verse with the children that we learnt 00:26:43.80\00:26:46.80 in our study today. 00:26:46.84\00:26:48.47 Yes, let's do that. 00:26:48.50\00:26:50.07 Philippians 4:19- And my God shall supply all your needs 00:26:50.11\00:26:57.28 according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 00:26:57.31\00:27:01.88 Children are you ready to sing our blessing song?
