(That is why the place is called Marah).”

He threw it into the water, and the water became sweet.
There the LORD made a decree and a law for them, and there he tested them.”
Exodus 15:25 (NIV)
 
·         What is the biggest “Marah” in your life, today?
·         Have you actually prayed about it and asked God for help?
·         Notice that God “____________” Moses a piece of wood that was already on the ground.
He did not create the answer, it was already there.
Moses simply hadn’t seen what God wanted to give him.
