"Ask not what GOD can do for YOU but what YOU can do for GOD."

In other words, instead of ASKING God for something all of the time perhaps it's time for you to start GIVING something.

But I'm only poor and I have little or no money to give you might ask! A very honest and understandable question. We seem to have this pre-occupation with money and that everything will be alright if only we had enough money. There is an often mis-quoted phrase from THE BIBLE that states "money is the root of all evil" when the correct phrase is "for the love of money is the root of all evil." Money alone will not cure the world's problems!

You GIVE according to your means and abilities. However much, however little. It doesn't always have to be money of course. It can be your time serving others in whatever capacity you can.

Chapter 17

1: And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the LORD, andpitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink.

2: Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said untothem, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?

3: And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?

4: And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me.

5: And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of theelders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thinehand, and go.

6: Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. AndMoses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.

7: And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?

8: Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

9: And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.

10: So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to thetop of the hill.

11: And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

12: But Moses hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands,the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands weresteady until the going down of the sun.

13: And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

14: And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.

15: And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:

16: For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.

The Hebrew Masoretic text contains verse endings as an important feature. According to the Talmudic tradition, the verse endings are of ancient origin. The Masoretic textual tradition also contains section endings called parashiyot, which are indicated by a space within a line or a new line beginning. The difference of the text reflected in the parashiyot is usually thematic. The parashiyot are not numbered.
