Today’s Jethros
Jethro Bodine
Leroy Jethro Gibbs
Fathers Day gives us a unique opportunity to look at a passage of scripture through from a slightly different perspective as we look at what Jethro’s purpose was and how he lived this out as a father.
Point
First
Jethro embraced his role as a father.
Modern day Jethro: Leroy Jethro Gibbs (fatherly role to his team)
Embrace our role as fathers!
Consider that our purpose may not be to achieve greatness as a father but to play a role in helping our children be great.
Second
Exodus 18:7-
Exodus 12:13-
Jethro spoke out according to the Wisdom he was given
Jethro recognized God’s Greatness
Another name used to refer to Jethro in Exodus Chapter 2 is, Rueul.
Reuel means “friend of God”.
It is clear that Jethro came to live up to this name through his recognition of God’s greatness.
Recognize God’s greatness!
Ways that God is great...
Reality is that how a person describes God reveals more about the person than it reveals about God.
Struggle between greatness and suffering.
The presence of pain does not mean the absence of God’s Greatness.
Third
Exodus 18
Jethro spoke out according to the Wisdom he was given
Modern Day Jethro: Jethro Bodine
If we have advise, give it.
If the advise comes from someone (of authority or recognized spiritual leadership) and lines up with what God commands, follow it
Consider that our purpose may not be to achieve greatness as a father but to play a role in helping our children be great.
Recognize God’s greatness!
Ways that God is great...
Reality is that how a person describes God reveals more about the person than it reveals about God.
Struggle between greatness and suffering.
The presence of pain does not mean the absence of God’s Greatness.
Seek Wisdom!
Wisdom comes from God
Proverbs 2:
Bottom Line:
Pursue God’s Greatness!
Every day let us fulfil our purpose and go on our way
