Exodus 1-8

A new king arose who didn't know Joseph and therefore didn't respect his people. So how does he treat God's people? With suspicion and oppression. But as they were oppressed they grew stong, both in number, and you hope, spirit. They had to work harder, they had their rights denied them. BUt they were still God's people.

God heard their cry and He knew. God heard. God remembered. And we worship a God who breaks in. It was the LORD,not pharaoh, who would not let His people go! He speaks suddenly into the darkness, and all is different. Not fixed. Not easier. Not better, but different. See the great speaking, hearing, saving, knowing, merciful, acting int he darkness grace of our God, and don't lose hope.
