Life in the Penalty Box
7-11-10 The Desert Acts 7 / EX 2:11-25
Acts 7:22 Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action.
Ex 2:11-14
Acts 7:25 Moses thought that his own people would realize that God was using him to rescue them, but they did not.
Ex 2:15 When Pharaoh heard of this, he tried to kill Moses, but Moses fled from Pharaoh and went to live in Midian, where he sat down by a well.
Big Ques: What are we to learn in the penalty box?
Lesson 1) The Lesson of S !
V17-22
A) Point: God was teaching Moses to be faithful even in obscurity, when no one noticed!
2) The Lesson of T & P !
3 verbs… 1. God H : V24a God heard their groaning and
2. God R : V24b he remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob.
3. God S : V25 So God looked on the Israelites and was concerned about them.
3) The Lesson of O !
Ex 3:11 But Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?" …Moses was a different man!
V12a… And God said, "I will be with you.”
Ex 4:1 Moses answered, "What if they do not believe me or listen to me and say, 'The Lord did not appear to you'?"
Point: The tools to lead were not found during his success but in the desert, penalty box!
Moses learned: God delights in making
S not Pharaohs!
