In this episode we read and talked about Moses’ first confrontation with Pharaoh. Pharaoh refused to let God’s people. He then punished them by refusing to give them any straw to make bricks but ordered that the produce the same amount of bricks. Discouraged and upset, they blamed Moses. Moses takes their complaints to God. As bleak as it seems, Moses went straight to God. We must do the same when we are facing a problem…take it to the Lord in prayer. Someone once said, if it is worth talking about, it’s worth praying about. We also started Chapter 6 where God declared who He is and assured them He was about to keep His promises and deliver His people. God ordered Moses and Aaron to go back to Pharaoh and demand he let the people leave his country. As we see Moses make his excuses (I don’t speak well), it should remind us that when we have a call on our life, God is not going let us get away with not doing what He has for us to do. Remember how Jonah ran and was swallowed by a big fish. You can’t run and hide from God! He will find you and put some fire under you that will convince you to say yes to His will. (Note one correction: talking too fast, there were over 2 Million people who left Egypt, not 2,000) #4you #biblestudy #foryourpage #moses #pharaoh #aaron #deliverances #prayer #egypt #bondage #power @readingthroughthebiblewith3242
Note: One correction. There were over 2 Million people that came up out of Egypt (not 2 thousand...I was talking too fast, sorry.)
