Exodus 23:30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land. It is always little by little that God will do the ministry. If he does too much too quick we could never deal with the success and never keep up with the work. […]

Exodus 19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. What a time in history! Israel was to be a kingdom of priests, people who could talk to God. Yet at the same time they were […]

Exodus 17:2 Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD? When the people got thirsty and tired they got mad. They blamed Moses. They wanted to see Moses perform. Moses had […]

Getting right only in the minute

October 15, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

Exodus 9:34 And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants. So many people act like Pharaoh. In the middle of the calamity and problem they cry out to God to forgive them. They get right with […]

Saving the persecutors

Exodus 1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive. Egypt decides to kill the male children born to the Jewish women.

Hardy plants do not grow in greenhouses.

October 11, 2013 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

The more the children of Israel are mistreated and the more miserable they make their lives the more they grow. Hardy plants do not grow in greenhouses. They were afflicted but they grew strong. No matter what Egypt did to them they continued to grow and that caused great concern for Egypt.

 There is a […]

Exodus 36:6 And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary.
