Read through Exodus 2:11-25 a couple times. What words or phrases pop out to you as you read? Moses obviously knew that he was a Hebrew. This is interesting being raised by Pharaoh’s daughter. He is angered by the injustice that he sees and takes matters into his own hands. What injustice in your world causes the anger to rise …

Let’s take this morning to sit with the Lord in some of the losses in our lives. We just read in Exodus how mother’s lost their babies. Who knows how many died at the whim of this Pharoah, but the loss was tremendous- individually and corporately. Read Psalm 6 and ask the Holy Spirit to bring up those things in …

From what I read, though the exact origin is unclear, it seems to have the meaning of “one who crosses over”- or went …

Read Exodus 2:1-4 I can’t help but notice that Moses’ mom coats the basket with pitch before she puts Moses into the water in it. Genesis 6 tells us that Noah was commanded by God to coat the ark inside and out with pitch. Perhaps pitch is a common coating for things? But it reminded me of God’s protection for …
