He urges the congregation to transition from living by principle to experiencing God's promise.

Message
Pastor Brandon Clack begins his sermon by expressing gratitude for Dr. Rod Parsley and his wife, Joanie, for creating a space where people can encounter God. He reads from Exodus 17:11, focusing on the story of Moses holding up his hands during the battle against the Amalekites. Clack emphasizes the importance of having people like Aaron and Hur to support and steady one's hands during times of weariness. He argues that the contextual word of God is the biblical basis for all prophetic claims. He explains the historical context of the children of Israel and Moses' encounter with the burning bush, highlighting God's sovereign timing and the need for prayers to align with God's will.
Pastor Clack continues his sermon, explaining that God's greatest protection is sometimes saying "no" to our desires. He emphasizes that God is committed to His sovereign plan and does not apologize for disappointing our expectations. He connects this to the story of the Israelites facing the Red Sea, where God used Moses' staff to perform a miracle. Clack highlights that obedience turns common things into supernatural events. He discusses the internal conflict of the Israelites and the external war with the Amalekites, noting that warfare often begins when one takes obedient steps toward God. He stresses the importance of spiritual discernment and maximizing one's lane, whether on the ground like Joshua or on the hill like Moses.
Pastor Clack continues his sermon, emphasizing that Moses did not go to the hilltop alone but took Aaron and Hur with him, illustrating the need for support and stability in spiritual warfare. He connects this to the typology of Jesus as the rock and the need for friends to help stay stable. He highlights the importance of intercessory prayer and rebuking fear and accusations. He references the death and resurrection of Jesus, emphasizing the doctrine of ascension and the need to take the blood into the holy of holies. He encourages the congregation to hold each other's hands, rebuke fear, and declare victory through the power of the Holy Spirit. He concludes by leading a powerful prayer for breakthrough, healing, and deliverance.
