God’s people were still traveling in the wilderness and arrived at a place called Rephidim.  At Rephidim, they experience another time of wondering where they were going to get water. The people’s short memory leads to them threatening Moses, and God telling Moses to strike a rock. The previous passage ends with his people asking, “Is the Lord among us or not?” In this passage, God is about to answer that.

Big Idea: The Lord wants us to experience victory in life as our Banner. [end] (Exodus 17:8-16)
