Day 30: Exodus 1-3

Today on Meditating the Word, The Children of Israel are opppressed in Egypt; Moses is born and adopted by Pharoah's daughter; Moses kills and Egyptian and flees to Midian; and God speaks to Moses from a burning bush.

This is Day 30. Today we are reading Exodus Chapters 1-3.

Father God, Just as you heard the cries of the children of Israel, we know you hear us today. You are the same God today as you were yesterday and as you will be tomorrow. You are I AM who I AM. Help us, Father, to not act rashly. While Moses's heart was in the right place, wanting to save his brothers, his actions were wrong, and likely delayed the freeing of the children of Israel. But you always make a way. And while we sometimes wish we had a burning bush in the physical showing us the way to go, we know we have your holy fire, Holy Spirit within us every day. Thank you, Father. There could be no better gift. May we listen to and follow his direction today and every day. Amen
