7.  The Israelites began to become very upset. It was very hot in the desert and they were very thirsty.  When they found water they were still upset because the water was bitter!

8.  What do you think happened to the water when Moses cried out to the Lord and threw a stick into the water?  Do you like tests? Neither did the Israelites! God was testing them to see how they would react. The Israelites hearts were just as hard as the Egyptians!

18.  So as you can see God provided for the Israelites! In the evening God sent the Quail and in the morning he sent the manna!  God was showing that He alone will supply all of your needs, but we must obey God as well!

19.  Some of the people were greedy and gathered extra food. When they woke up they found out that the food had maggots in it……..

20.  It is important for us to listen to God!  God told the Israelites to gather twice as much food on the sixth day of the week.  Why did he want them to do that?

22.  God is the ultimate provider! We must obey Him and will supply all of our needs!  So the main point is what?  Would you rather sing and worship God or grumble and complain?
