the BEST of everything

Exodus 2:7 & 8
"7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother."

Their plan, if not inspired by GOD, definitely guided by GOD, is working! His family hid him from the Egyptian Slave Masters. They would kill baby Moses if they found him. The family made the ARK basket and sent Moses on his perilous journey down the Nile river. Moses' older sister, Miriam, kept watch from the river bank.

THEN! THE ONE person who can save baby Moses has him PULLED from the WATER; Pharaoh's Daughter. Baby Moses cried and she fell in love. In today's verses, Miriam comes forward; "Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a NURSE of the Hebrew women, that she may NURSE the child for thee? And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called THE CHILD'S MOTHER."

Now baby Moses will be cared for by his birth mother AND protected and raised by his adopted mother; Pharaoh's Daughter!!! Moses was saved from death and placed in the BEST situation possible. He will grow up in the lap of luxury and receive the world's best education! He will have the BEST of everything the world has to offer!
It's amazing!

I will make you

Matthew 4:19&20 "19 And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed Him." In our "Follow Me" series, we study Jesus calling His disciples in the Gospel of Matthew. By the Sea of Galilee, a thriving fishing hub, Jesus saw Simon and Andrew casting nets as humble fishermen. His disciples were ordinary workers, not wealthy or educated elites. Jesus approached them and said, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Remarkably, they immediately left their jobs to follow Him. This brief exchange conveys a profound truth: Jesus says, "I will make you." Only God can transform us to accomplish His purpose. We should often pray, "Help me, God," seeking Jesus' guidance to follow His plan for our lives.

God’s patience

2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." God did not immediately punish King Solomon when he allowed his foreign wives to build altars for false gods. Despite multiple compromises, God remained patient. Over time, Solomon’s endorsement of idolatry defied God’s covenant, leading to divine judgment, including the loss of the kingdom for his son. Some mistake God’s patience for indifference or inaction, but He follows His plan in His timing. If our nation, culture, church, or we ourselves stray like Solomon, we can repent and return to God’s path. And, should do so sooner than later! Amen!

God’s purpose

1 Kings 19:17&18 "17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay. 18 Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him." God shows Elijah his true impact and future plan. He commands Elijah to leave hiding and anoint three figures: Hazael, Jehu, and Elisha. These appointments signal judgment and renewal, as Hazael and Jehu will help overthrow the Omride dynasty, including Ahab and Jezebel. God provides not just succession but a plan to purge Baal worship. His work persists through new agents beyond Elijah. The passage stresses that God’s purpose depends on no single person; Elijah is not alone—7,000 in Israel remain faithful to God, unbowed to Baal. This remnant upholds God’s covenant amid apostasy. Elijah’s story teaches: our isolation and despair are illusions. Focus on God’s greater,...
