Observations

• While Moses grew up in Pharaoh’s house, he never lost his association with God’s people (2:11).
• Moses’ intention to deliver was admirable, but his plan was unacceptable as he relied on his strength (2:12-15).
• God gradually developed Moses to confront injustice and protect the vulnerable (2:16-21).
• Moses began to realize something that had been true all along: he struggled because he wasn’t home (2:22).
• God never lost track of their suffering and never wavered from His plan for deliverance (2:23-25).

Applications

• God has prepared you all your life for the opportunities before you.
• You feel restless in this world because you were built for another.
• You never need to awaken God’s heart to the world’s agony.
• God sees your situation and knows what He’s going to do.
• A righteous passion accompanied by a self-reliant strength will never accomplish the will of God.
