Obedience
Exodus 7:6-7 “Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord commanded them. Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron was eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh.” All my girls got their wisdom teeth out when they were around high school age. After the surgery, all of them had very detailed instructions from the

Unworthy
Exodus 6:12 “But Moses said to the Lord, “If the Israelites will not listen to me, why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I speak with faltering lips?” If you played football as a kid then you most likely dreamed of one day becoming an NFL player. As you played in the backyard or for

The Proving Ground
Exodus 5:22-23 “Moses returned to the Lord and said, “Why, Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Is this why you sent me?

A Foreigner in a Foreign Land
Exodus 2:19 “They answered, “An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds. He even drew water for us and watered the flock.” In the movie “Rambo”, Rambo shows up in some small town in the mountains looking for one of his friends from the war. Finding out that he had passed away, Rambo is a man

Reactions
Exodus 2:11-14 “One day, after Moses had grown up, he went out to where his own people were and watched them at their hard labor. He saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his own people. Looking this way and that and seeing no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the

Exodus 2:10 “When the child grew older, she took him to Pharaoh’s daughter and he became her son. She named him Moses, saying “I drew him out of the water.” Identity is one thing we seem to struggle with now days. Whether is it your sexual preferences or your gender or the color of your
