While we were still at our South Tulsa Campus – we trekked along with the Israelites on what we termed “Alltogether” Family Nights – we compared our journey to this place with those of God’s People in Egypt. We watched them as they traveled and learned from their lives -- We had pivotal lessons that we saw as parallel to the times we were in as a Church Family. We “floated boats on the Nile” “endured the plagues” “had a contest to create burning bushes”– “tried to get water from the rock” –“tasted something like manna” -- celebrated a Passover Meal and built shelters as we celebrated the Feast of the Tabernacles together.
These were verses we committed during those Exodus Lessons
— Lord YOU have been our dwelling place throughout all generations –Psalm 90:1
— I have been with you wherever you have gone. I will provide a place for my people Israel and will plant them so that they can have a home of their own and no longer be disturbed. 1 Chron 17 :9
— I will establish them and increase their numbers, and I will put my sanctuary among them forever. My dwelling place will be with them; I will be their God and they will be my people. Ezek. 37:26
We praise God for the journey of Life we have traveled up to this point – Lord, we are so blessed to come to this point – we are so very blessed to be Family together. Thank you for all the sacrifices each and everyone has made. Thank you Father that we are a FOREVER FAMILY.
