- The Redemption from Egypt - no matter how difficult life may be, remember that HaShem loves you and will redeem you from all your hardship. You aren't alone.

- How we angered God in the desert - When everything is going great, that's when we make the biggest mistakes. Be simple. Do the right thing because it's the right thing to do. Be humble. Don't let things go to your head.
- What became of Balak and Bilaam's plots - They wanted to destroy us, and HaShem intervened to prevent it. We don't need to worry about our enemies, that's HaShem's job. We do need to work on ourselves and worry about our own.
- Miriam's punishment - Especially when our motivations are righteous, we must be careful, if a Tzadeket like Miriam failed through good intentions, we need constant reality checks.
- HaShem gives us strength for mighty deeds - Don't shy away from a task because of its shere size. HaShem has no limitations, and He's got our back.
