Lineage Journey


Moses and the Temple of God Season 2 Episode 3 Moses and the Temple of God Born amidst the country in turmoil to a people who were being persecuted under a law that demanded his death, Moses did not have the easiest start in life. At the time of his birth, the children of Israel had been living in Egypt for almost 400 years, and the Pharaoh at that time had expanded the country considerably. But it was a home where his tyranny was felt the most. He decreed that all Hebrew boys needed to be thrown into the river and killed. This was to prevent their continued growth and potential feared dominance.

🎵 music 🎵 In desperation, Moses' mother Jochebed came up with a plan. Weaving a basket of reeds, She made it waterproof and then put her baby inside and hid the basket in the reeds of the river. The Bible records that Pharaoh's daughter, believed to be Hattiput, came down to the river 1 day to bathe and saw the basket in the reeds, and upon finding a baby inside, she was so touched that a mother would go to such lengths to protect her child that she decided to adopt him. Miriam, watching from a distance, offered to find a nurse for the baby and promptly called her mother. The princess asked Jochebed to look after the baby until he was old enough to come and live in the palace as her son.

[♪ music ♪ For 12 years Jochebed filled her son's mind with the knowledge of God. At the age of 12 he was taken to the court of Pharaoh where he became the grandson of Pharaoh and was afforded the best education that Egypt had to offer. Growing up in the bewildering glamour of the Egyptian courts, Moses never forgot his roots. 1 day when he was out, he spied an Egyptian beating an Israelite and he killed him and buried him in the sand. The next day when he tried to arbitrate a dispute between 2 Israelites, he was astonished to find that they knew he had killed an Egyptian the day before.

🎵🎵 Moses now has to flee and he heads out to the Midian Desert located in modern-day Saudi Arabia where he tends sheep for 40 years. He gets Married, has children, and 1 day whilst in the desert he sees a bush burning and he hears the voice of God calling, saying, Moses, Moses! He instructs him to go back to Egypt to deliver his people, to take them to Canaan. Moses is reluctant to go, but he is reassured that his brother Aaron will go with him, that the power of God will go with him, and he finally agrees to go. 🎵 Entering Egypt with Aaron at his side, Moses stood before Pharaoh and said, Let my people go.

His request was angrily refused as Pharaoh challenged him and God, saying, Who is God that I should obey him? Moses and Aaron then demonstrated the power of God using Aaron's rod, as it was miraculously turned into a snake and then back into a rod. Still, Pharaoh was unimpressed and refused to release his slaves. It was then that God began to rain down plagues on Egypt, but Pharaoh stubbornly refused to yield. As the rivers turned to blood, and frogs, lice, and flies covered the land, boils afflicted the people, and locusts and hail decimated the crops and herds, and finally darkness covered the land, yet still Pharaoh's heart hardened more decisively.

🎵🎵🎵 Moses was a man who had a great foundation in life with his mother's education, who then learned in the courts of Pharaoh for nearly 30 years where he was trained to lead military campaigns. However, instead of all of this, he went to the wilderness for 40 years where he tended sheep, but this was exactly what he needed. God knows what's best for us. Sometimes we think we're prepared for the great challenges in life, but we grossly misjudge ourselves and our circumstances. Just like Moses needed time away in the silence and solitude of the desert, so sometimes God withdraws us from the heat of life to prepare us for something else great down the line.
