Once again we see God encouraging Moses as He
tells him exactly what to do as he and Aaron approach Pharaoh. He warns Moses that Pharaoh’s heart will be
hardened and he will not listen. God
tells Moses that He will increase his powers of destruction on Egypt and that His
people, the children of Israel, will be brought out of Egypt. Moses, 80 years old, and Aaron, 83 years old
did as God had commanded and once again were found to be obedient. I love how God continues to encourage both
Moses and Aaron while laying out His plan repeatedly. We see obedience and service even at ages we
would consider as being ‘seniors’. My
excuses of being too old, too tired, too goofy…too…too… too…whatever…do not
exemplify obedience. Think of areas
where you can serve and be a witness for Christ. What’s holding you back? Pray that God will show you how and where to
serve and trust that He will equip you to carry out His will.
