Lord God my Father,
Thank you for your protection in my life, help me to trust you more. If I am to be stubborn, may it be for your alone. Help me to live a pleasing life for you.
In Jesus name I pray,

For your presence among us sets your people and me apart from all other people on the earth.”

“Be sure that you make everything according to the pattern I have shown you here on the mountain.
The Lord said to Moses, 2“Tell the people of Israel to bring me their sacred offerings. Accept the contributions from all whose hearts are moved to offer them.
Lord God my Father,
Help me to be still and not change your desire to suit me, but to follow your desire to please you. Your plan so much better than I can even imagine.

“You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind
“Remember to observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
“Don’t be afraid,” Moses answered them, “for God has come in this way to test you, and so that your fear of him will keep you from sinning!”
Lord God my Father,

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
“How long will these people refuse to obey my commands and instructions? 29They must realize that the Sabbath is the Lord’s gift to you.
So once more the people complained against Moses. “Give us water to drink!” they demanded.
“Quiet!” Moses replied. “Why are you complaining against me? And why are you testing the Lord?”
So Moses struck the rock as he was told, and water gushed out as the elders looked on.
Then they stood on each side of Moses, holding up his hands. So his hands held steady until sunset.
He also told about all the hardships they had experienced along the way and how the Lord had rescued his people from all their troubles.
“This is not good!” Moses’ father-in-law exclaimed. 18“You’re going to wear yourself out—and the people, too. This job is too heavy a burden for you to handle all by yourself.
Lord God my Father,
Soften my heart to follow your desires above my own. Help me to live by your design more that by my decisions. Keep me from judging the world with my understanding and allow your plan to play out as you desire. Help me to accept your help and not be proud.
In Jesus name I pray,

And once again I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will chase after you. I have planned this in order to display my glory through Pharaoh and his whole army. After this the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord!”
We said, ‘Leave us alone! Let us be slaves to the Egyptians. It’s better to be a slave in Egypt than a corpse in the wilderness!’”
The Lord will reign forever and ever!”
Lord God my Father,
Your plan is perfect even when I don’t see it. Help me to know you enough to represent you well in confusing times. Keep me from being enslaved by fear and trust your Peace as my guide. Your way leads to a delightful life.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
I have made him and his officials stubborn so I can display my miraculous signs among them.
Pharaoh’s officials now came to Pharaoh and appealed to him. “How long will you let this man hold us hostage? Let the men go to worship the Lord their God! Don’t you realize that Egypt lies in ruins?”
Never come back to see me again! The day you see my face, you will die!” 29“Very well,” Moses replied. “I will never see your face again.”
The Lord caused the Egyptians to look favorably on the Israelites, and they gave the Israelites whatever they asked for.
On this night the Lord kept his promise to bring his people out of the land of Egypt. So this night belongs to him, and it must be commemorated every year by all the Israelites, from generation to generation.
Lord God my Father,
Soften my heart so your will is stronger than mine, help me to plea for your way alone. Keep me steadfast in your desire and not in mine. Help me to trust in your plan even when I don’t understand it.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
So Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord commanded them.
And the Lord did just as he had said.
So Moses left Pharaoh’s palace and pleaded with the Lord to remove all the flies. 31And the Lord did as Moses asked and caused the swarms of flies to disappear from Pharaoh, his officials, and his people.
Because his heart was hard, Pharaoh refused to let the people leave, just as the Lord had predicted through Moses.
Lord God my Father,
Stay close and keep my heart fixed on you. Allow obedience to become a strength and help me keep gratitude first in my thoughts.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
