Bible in 90 Days – Day 5

Bible in 90 Days – Day 5
Exodus 1-15


Words
Poor speaker (Literally “Uncircumcised lips”) – a Hebrew idiom for any imperfection that interferes with efficiency.

Wonders
Exodus 8:6 Where did the frogs go ‘up’ from?
Exodus 8:18 This is the first one the magicians could not copy- the gnats. At this third plague, they acknowledged the power of God.
Exodus 9:18-21 By the seventh plague, some of Pharoah’s officials feared God.
Exodus 9:27 Seventh plague Pharaoh admits sin and acknowledges God, but in 9:34 when it got easy again he sinned again. This time, too, he hardens his own heart – up until now it’s been God hardening his heart.
Exodus 12:38 Ethnically diverse crowd – does this mean that some Egyptians came with them?

Principles
Exodus 14:4 Sometimes my path may be longer/harder because God wants to do a work in someone else.


Hugs
Exodus 10:1-2 So that I may do, and you may tell. (Don’t we often miss the first part? Or reword it so that we are the doers? He’s so got this.)

Exodus 14:14 The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still.


Mirror
Exodus 6:9,12,30 The peoples’ spirit was broken and their hard labor kept them from listening to Moses, but he thought it was his own lack of skill. Pharaoh wouldn’t listen either and he again thought it was his own lack of ability, but it was his hard heart.
how often have we made the same conclusion? That because of some imperfection of our own we ought not do something, even if it’s something God has asked us to do

Exodus 14:21, 23:15 Moses stretched out his hand, and the Lord _____.  Are my hands available for the Lord to ______? Am I offering what I have?
