Exodus 2:23-25, 3:1-10
They were in bondage for years and years and their calling to God was not a characterized one. It could have been that they were hiding the pain or they were suffering with a smile. Also, it could have been that they could not see where God wanted them to see. As a result of the death of the King of Egypt, the story of the Israelites changed. Exodus 2:23, ÒNow it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out: and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.Ó The point here is, pray to God that anything, situation or any person that is representing King of Egypt (King of Bondage), should die a permanent death in your land. When the king of Egypt died in the land where the children of Israel have been in bondage, they were able to see the need to groan and cry for freedom. You need to be freed into GodÕs service, but with bondage that has been keeping you down, you remain stagnated. When the king died, the children of Israel moved God with a characterized call–a call that made God to act. Exodus 2:25, ÒAnd God looked upon the children of Israel and God acknowledge them.Ó GodÕs acknowledgement is all that will terminate your entire struggle from bondageÑeven bondage from over four hundred years. Ask God that whatever has taken reign over your life, whatever is not of God, whatever is representing the king of Egypt should die just as it was for the children of Israel.
