Exodus 2 Fear vs Trust

If we were to look at a newspaper front page that told about this chapter, it might read: 

• “New Pharaoh, New Fear: Israelites Multiply, Egypt Enslaves!”

Thus begins the story of the nation of Israel from few to many and with it comes the fear of their multiplication from the new Pharaoh. Men fear many things, but one is certain, without God as the center of your world, what you see is multiplied in your eyes as fear. The new Pharaoh’s fear was his guiding factor. Kill the baby boys was his answer. 

Yet, what God has planned is not directed by humanity. What God says, He will do. Into this we find one newborn that will lead the nation back to God and to a land that God had set aside for them, but first this child must grow and the Israelites must learn to trust.   Thus we begin the journey of the Israelites through the life of Moses who was spared the death knell. Watch, read and see the hand of God as He orchestrates life and the movement of His people from Egypt to Canaan. 

Where has God directed you from eternity past to where you are today?
