The Lord God established the sons of Israel in Egypt so He could reveal Himself to them, His chosen people.

As the first chapter of the book of Exodus begins, there are many people who are not yet a nation…but they were “family.”

This “family” was made up of husbands and wives, children and servants, and livestock and material possessions.

The twelve sons of Jacob made up the “family.” (Exodus 1:1-6)

They were in Egypt hundreds of years, in fact, they were there just over four hundred years.  Can you imagine the size of that “family?”  They were “fruitful and increased greatly, and multiplied and became exceedingly mighty…” (Exodus 1:7)

Where God has placed you, this day, is a preparation for your tomorrow.  Did you know that your today is not wasted in God’s sight?

~ Take it to heart ~

  God’s faithfulness to the sons of Israel is something I do not always understand.  His faithfulness to me is also something I do not always understand.

People fail to be 100% faithful ~
But God never fails to be faithful ~
God is the Head of His family!
Are you one of His children by faith in Jesus as your Savior?
