Day Fourteen
Exodus 5 - 8
Bible Time Period: Egypt and Exodus
You freed your people from slavery in Egypt so they could worship you. Free me from sin so I can serve and worship.
Reflection
You freed your people from slavery in Egypt so they could worship you. Free me from sin so I can serve and worship.
Reflection
In Exodus 4:23, God said to Pharaoh, “Let my son go [halak]
that he may serve [obed] me.” Now in
5:18, Pharaoh replies: “Go[halak] now
and work [obed].” The battle here is not
between Pharaoh and the Hebrew people but between Pharaoh and God. Whose people are they? To whom do they owe
service and worship? Watch the
interaction between God and Pharaoh as the drama unfolds.
Prayer
Lord, your promise has always been that you would be with
those who seek you and strive to live according to your will during our journey
to eternity. You never promised,
however, that the journey would be without struggles and sufferings. The struggles and sufferings of the Israelites
under Egyptian bondage in Exodus, and your mighty works to bring them to
salvation and freedom are a comfort to us in our daily journey as we struggle
with our personal sin and our desire to be freed from all suffering. Just as you persevered to bring the Israelites out
of Egypt, so too do you persevere with us, Lord, giving us strength when we are
weak and resolve to make the right choices when we waver under the pressures of
worldly wisdom. (Exodus Lesson 4 Agape Catholic Bible Study)
