Quiet Time Notes

In It Together

Then they stood on each side of Moses holding up his hands until sunset - Exodus 17:12

Moses' part of the battle was to provide spiritual support for his army

The hold up his staff represented Israel's dependence on God:

• When held up the staff, the Israelites soldiers had the advantage
• When became tired and dropped it, the Amalekites gained the upper hand

Israel ran into problems when Moses became tired

Quick thinking from Aaron and Hur - held his hands up

The problem was solved through cooperation
