"Rough Start" || MelVee Sabbath School Lesson 3 - Q3 2025

📖 SABBATH SCHOOL LESSON 3: ROUGH START
Welcome to the MelVee Sabbath School Panel Discussion. This week, we study Lesson 3, Rough Start, from the book of Exodus 5–7. Moses obeyed God's call, but instead of smooth success, he met resistance, disappointment, and rejection from Pharaoh and even his own people. What happens when following God's will leads to more hardship? Why does God allow such rough starts in our faith journey?

Join Elders Melusi and Bruce as they unpack powerful lessons on obedience, spiritual resistance, divine assurance, and leadership under trial. This is a must-watch lesson for anyone facing a rough patch despite being faithful to God's call. 💥🔥

📌 KEY THEMES COVERED
Why divine missions can start off rough; Moses’ confrontation with Pharaoh; Dealing with disappointment in ministry; God's silence doesn't mean His absence; Learning to trust God's timing
When leaders themselves are tested; How pain and discouragement distort purpose; The power of returning to God in crisis

🔗 Recommended Scripture Readings:
Exodus 5:1–2; Exodus 6:1–8; Psalm 73; Revelation 17:14; Hebrews 11:24–27;

👥 Who Should Watch This?
Leaders facing ministry setbacks
Christians walking in obedience but seeing no fruit
Young people starting their journey with God
Anyone needing courage to keep going after a rough start

🙏🏾 "Don't go back to Jethro — go back to God." -- This lesson reminds us that we're not called to be successful, but to be faithful. Stay the course. God’s plan will prevail.
