Moses overcame his challenges whether in Egypt or the wilderness, in the middle of the Red Sea or on the edge of the Promised Land. Moses found the strength of God in the strain of life.

Hebrews 11:23-26

Mike Bowie

Reread Hebrews 11:23-29.

How has a time of adversity shaped your life?
Describe a time you either bloomed, or didn’t bloom, where you were planted. What were the results?
Moses didn’t conform, but transformed those in his realm of influence. I find myself:
__constantly conforming to please others
__conflicted between pleasing people and pleasing God
__positively influencing others towards God
Have you ever gotten into trouble or been “persecuted” for taking a stand against the system or prevailing culture? What happened?
Describe what distracts you from keeping your eye on Jesus and eternal things. What do you need to do to begin “thriving” in your current situation?
