Hiding the Next Generation
Bible Reading: Exodus 1:22 – Exodus 2: 1-10
Introduction
Pharaoh King of Egypt Decreed Infanticide. Exodus 1:22.
- Egypt was afraid of the growth and potential power of Israel 1:9-10
- Male Hebrew children were thrown into The Nile River
- The same contract of destruction happened in Baby Jesus time
- Today there’s a contract out on the lives of the next generation
Today’s evil contract, Today’s Grace. Romans 5:20
- This generation is thrown into the Nile River of drugs, partying, illicit sex, alcoholism, internet porn, worldly music, dark themes, fellowship with demons etc.
- Mothers (like Jochebed) have the potential of being great deliverers (hiders)
- Mothers (like Jochebed) can save this generation from the damage of today’s evil contract
- Mothers especially those who know and love Jesus are a huge asset to the public
- Like Moses, those hidden from today’s “River of Death” will lead tomorrow
Not Easy, but Possible
- Jochebed must have had God’s grace. You have God’s grace for your race
- Take care of yourself in order to take care of the next generation
- Don’t dwell on the past.
- Kick discouragement in the guts and keep hope alive
- Jochebed had no idea but she was preserving a whole nation by her actions
Mother, Grandmother you are still in the game, Go, Win and WIn Big!!! Hebrews 12:12-15
Happy Mothers Day!!!!!
