Today: [Exodus 5] Pharaoh Refuses to Let the People Go. Moses and Aaron petition Pharaoh to take the people Israel into the wilderness to hold a feast unto the Lord. Pharaoh responds that the people are idle in asking such a thing and refuses to comply. What about your life? I the Pharaoh in your life refusing to let you go? When Moses and Aaron met with the king’s refusal the plan of God hung in the balance. When you face initial setbacks what you do next makes all the distance between defeat and victory.
