A WORD FROM PASTOR MARK
Following God’s directive, Moses went to Egypt to bring God’s message of deliverance to the Israelites. At first the people were excited, but, because freedom was not “instant,” they quickly fell back into pessimism. Exodus 6:9 says, “…they did not listen to him [Moses] because of their discouragement.” The good news is that the Israelites ended up trusting God and leaving the life of slavery. Let us remember: God’s power can and will deliver us from sin’s bondage. Our part is to listen to His Word, trust Him, and not give in to discouragement because of present circumstances. The Lord has great plans for us!
