“Confidence Collapse” Numbers 20:2-13 Greg Meyer

        



                                                    Sermon Discussion Questions


1) Quote from the sermon: “Leaders are not exempt from needing God’s grace/help in their lives.” Do we realize that in our lives? (That we need just as much grace today as the day that we became believers?) Are we quick to give the leaders in our lives that space to ask for help? Or do we put them on pedestals?

2) This was the 2nd generation of Israelites traveling to the Promised Land. They had seen God provide for them over and over previously. How does God respond to their collapse of confidence?

3) What did God command Moses to do in in verses 6-9? Ultimately, what was God wanting Moses and the Israelites to remember about Himself?

4) Where in our own lives have we faced “confidence collapse” in God? What is the underlying cause of that collapse? How can we respond to that doubt? How can we change those moments when we start to doubt into moments of opportunities to exercise our faith instead of collapsing?

“We need to remember that God responds with paternal love and moves towards us to make a way for relationship and we see that evidenced in Christ.” (Sermon quote)

Application:
5) Ask yourself, “What needs am I feeling parched for in my life?” Take a moment to pray and ask the Holy Spirit to help you trust Him in those areas.
