Bible Reading Plan

Upon hearing what God was doing through Moses, Moses’ father-in-law, Jethro, decided to visit. During the visit, Jethro saw the inefficient way Moses was handling the people’s disputes and so he advised Moses of a better way. Jethro’s plan was simple—get help! Jethro’s advice was for the good of Moses and the people. There are…

They were hungry. God sent manna. They were thirsty. God sent water gushing from a rock. Another time He made the bitter waters sweet again, so they could drink. Every day there was a miracle right before their eyes. Over and over, God provided for their needs. And just as the people of Israel had…

As the Israelites got closer to the sea, it must have looked bigger and deeper. Their eyes focused on the problem and they forgot about the bigness of their God. But God did not forget about them. He split the sea in two so that His people walked through on the dry ground. God never…

The book of Exodus, in many ways, is a book about waiting.

The Apostle Paul taught us that there are two different mindsets that we can have in our approach to God—we can approach Him as slaves in spirit of bondage or as adopted children of God. The Bible presents a high view of adoption and uses it to parallel the relationship God wants to have with…
