“Moses stands in the gap between Israel and a holy and just God ... he stands there to keep God from destroying the people and ... as a mediator.”
Rev. Fitzgerald preaches from Numbers 14 about Moses' intercession, emphasizing that everyone 'stands in the need of prayer.' He urges believers to pray for God's glory and mercy, to remain dependent, thankful, and content, to confess sin daily, and to rely on Christ as the ultimate mediator.
“The leader like Moses can stand between God and the people and say, 'Lord, you gave them to me; do not kill them.'”
Pastor Todd Hall preaches from 2 Samuel 24, warning against counting on people or money instead of God. Using David’s sin of numbering Israel, he teaches that leaders must rely on God (and expect accountability), hidden sin brings consequences, and believers must repent, trust God’s mercy, and steward resources wisely. The message is delivered in the context of Passion Week/Easter with calls to worship, confession, and faithful giving.
