Exodus 2:1-10, 6:20
1. Who is the worst person in the Bible to do arithmetic? Moses
2. Who among the biblical characters gets 100 points in all exams? Miriam
3. There are 66 books in the Old and New Testaments. So, how many letters are there in the Bible? 2 characters
4. The shortest Bible in the Bible is Psalm 117, verse 2. So where is the thickest sheet? cover.
We know these three great men very well: Moses, the leader of the great nation, his sister Miriam the first prophetess, and Aaron the supreme priest. If so, there must be people who have made them such precious people that God can use. Who was the great teacher who raised them?
The summer event ended well in the midst of grace. It was a precious feast where each of us tried to spread God's will with a good theme. One thing that was disappointing was that more friends were not able to join us. It would be great if we could participate in the precious feast together and be happy and rejoice, but as Matthew 22 says, there are many people around us who refuse because they are busy with worldly affairs and cannot participate in the feast. What comes first? How can I make great children? I hope we can share this time together through the Word.
Our life these days is truly a series of hardships (worst). Economic hardship is more difficult than ever. Why is it so difficult to educate children? But we know well that Jochebed was in more trouble than we did today. Even if they have children, they cannot raise them and have to kill them. It is a difficult time to live as a slave for generations. Like Jochebed, who dealt with God's precious work by coping with such difficult times and times of tribulation with faith, we too can understand the Lord's will, practice it, and wisely fulfill God's will on this earth, as well as our children. I sincerely hope that I will be able to move forward as a leader who leads the nation.
Jochebed was a special woman as the title suggests today. If we look at his name first, it means 'Jehovah is glorified'. Before Moses, Jochebed was the first to put ‘Jehovah’ in a person’s name. The reason he got such an honorable name is also the image that clearly shows how much he praised God and lived according to God's will. The Bible lists today's protagonist Jochebed, Samuel's mother Hannah, and Jesus' mother Mary as beautiful mothers and beautiful wives. Hence the name Hyeonmo (賢母) Three Musketeers.
Dear saints, Circumstances and circumstances do not matter to us. I hope that all the members of Onyang Church can turn the situation around like Yochebed.
Lastly, Jochebed was a man who put his faith into action. He studied what he was supposed to do and he also did it. Even in Pharaoh's palace, he plays the role of a teacher who bears witness to the word of God. The great French general, Napoleon, said, "If you sow the seeds of action, you will get the fruits of habit; if you sow the seeds of habit, you will get the fruits of character; if you sow the seeds of character, you will get the fruits of fate" Says. I totally agree with this statement. We became Christians because we believed in Jesus as the Christ and imitated the life of Jesus. Nevertheless, there are indeed many instances in which they do not testify of God's love and do not act. If I try to practice what I set out to do, and if I act, it becomes a habit, and when good habits are repeated, they become solid as my personality and develop into a beautiful life. Those who act can achieve beautiful fruits.
Holy Father God! Thank you for letting us know and understanding Jochebed, who raised Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, the leaders of the nation, as God's precious tools. He allowed us to live with faith looking to God even in difficult and difficult circumstances, and acted to bring out the glory of the Lord. We, too, have decided to look to God by faith and move forward, so please give us strength. Grant us the strength and courage to overcome and reform the circumstances we are given. So, lead our children so that they do not lack enough to lead this land and the nations as the great leaders you use. ...
