A Covenant Renewed and Kingdom on the Move


This week we are looking at Moses and how God worked through him to lead the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt...
In the life of Moses, we see that God renews his Covenant commitment to Israel, & re-establishes her Kingdom calling.  God has used the trials of Israel’s time in Captivity to strengthen and form them into a people, and shows up in power to deliver them from their oppressors, which prepares them for the next era of their history; Conquest over the promised land. In order for Israel to successfully return to the land God has promised after 400 years, they must remain faithful to him. God’s people are forced to wander in the desert of Sinai as they waffle between faith & doubt.  Moses leads them during this time & raises up Joshua to lead God’s people into the next era of Israel’s history; to take Conquest over the Promised Land.
