GOD IS AWESOME
Exodus 1:15-22, 2:1-10

“Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah; and he said, “When you do the duties of a midwife for the Hebrew women, and see them on the birthstools, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.” (Exodus 1:15-16) There is no work of God that is accidental. After king Pharaoh’s command to kill all the Hebrew sons, a boy was born by a couple from the house of Levi. Pharaoh’s plot was to kill and to destroy while the hand of God was in place to heal and to deliver. Moses’ birth came in due season. However, his due season was a season of destruction yet he lived as a vessel of deliverance for his people. The kind of season you are will not determine or affect what God wants to do with your life. It does not matter how people see your situation, but it does matter for you to believe that the God who delivered Moses at the time of destruction will have a way of seeing you through. Moses, after three months, the parents placed him in an ark of bulrushes to protect him from the being killed by Pharaoh. As God will have it for Moses, the ark ended up in the hand of Pharaoh’s daughter and that called for a need to have someone to take care of Moses. “Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?” And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” So the maiden went and called the child’s mother.” (Exodus 2:7-8) Miracle working God placed Moses on the same ground where judgment was passed for the killing of Hebrew sons. He was also delivered into his mother’s hand and he did not have to miss the early infant age from his mother. When the mother took over the caring contract, “Then Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” So the woman took the child and nursed him.”” (Exodus 2:9) God did not only deliver Moses, but He also preserved him. The house of Pharaoh was responsible for all of Moses’ provision. God does have His own way of operating and no man or situation can derail the operations of God. God is an awesome God. He will deliver you and preserve you for His glory in Jesus name.
