ISRAEL WAS OPPRESSED

Exodus 1: 1-14

Introduction to the Book of Exodus in audio.*

Israel went down to Egypt during the reign of Joseph, where she led a weary life, but God's will is fulfilled.

1) All that generation died

All physical guards disappeared, but the Israelites children proliferated.

2) The bitter life of Israel

The power of the nation of Israel was a threat to Egypt. Egypt laid his hard labor to exterminate.

3) The more overwhelmed Israel ...

Israel disappeared? On the contrary, Israel filled the land, the more they afflicted. In the difficult situation, the Israelites could not understand the divine will, but there was good will of God. See Genesis 46: 3. When you cross an overwhelming situation, we grieve not, seek the will of God.

Prayer: Lord, I believe that the will that you had put on the people of Israel was very large, like the one you gave on French expatriates to proliferate

One Word: more they afflicted them, the more they proliferate
