HEFEHENCE MATERIAL Deuteronomy 1:23-11, Psalm 114 23-46; Matthew 17.3, Acti 7:17-44; Hebrew* U:HB-a» PRIMARY TOPlC—Moire the Boy Whom God Saved. JUNIOR TOPlO—Moiri Lead* lirael Through the Red Bra. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC- Moeri the Great Ix-ader. YOUNG PEOPLE! AND ADULT TOPIC—The Character of Moier I The Birth, Preservation and Education of Mosoe. (Exodus 8:1-8). 1. His Birth (vv. 1-2). His pa rents were of the tribe of Levi. 2. Hia PreaervatUMi (vv. 3-8). The faith of his parents caused them to ignore the comiuaud of the king and ihey hid him for three months (Hebrews 11:23). His mother discerned In him a proper child, or a child fair to <<od (Acts 7 :20), and believed him to be the deliverer of his people. Perhaps led by the story of Nonh's ark. she made him an ark of bulrushes and placed Moses In It and left It at the place where Pharaoh’s daughter would be attracted when site came down to bathe. Miriam, his sister, was placed where she could watch the affair, and at the opportune moment she came with a suggestion of a nurse for the baby; securing her consent, Miriam brought the child’s mother. , 3. Uls Education (vv. 0-10). He was educated first at bls mother's knee, the place where his character was formed. He was also educated at the Egyptian court, where he became acquainted i with the wisdom of Egypt (Acts 7 :22). 11. Ths Call of Moms (Exodus 3). 1. The Lord Speaks From the Bush (vv. 1-6). In the desert the Lord appeared in the vision of the burning bush. When Moses stepped aside to behold this strange thing God taught him the lesson of proper approach unto himself. , 2. The Lord Commissions Moses (vv. 71V). God assured him of his active Interest In his people, having seen their ufflictlou, heard their cry. and known their sorrows, and that he had come down to deliver them from the hand of the Egyptian through Moses as His I gent. 111. Moms’ Contut With Pharaoh (Exodus 5-12). The ten plagues reveal the contest carried on between Moses und Pharaoh before the people were set free. The tenth stroke from the strong hand of the Almighty made Pharaoh willing to let Israel go. IV. Israel Crossing the Red Sea (Exodus 14:10, 13-22). 1. Israel's Straitened Circumstances (v. 10). At the Lord's direction they changed from their first course nnd were npparently in great difficulty. The Red sea was before them; the mountains on either side. Pharaoh with Ills chariots of war was closing In upon them. In their distress they cried to the Lord. 2. I sin el's Miraculous Escape (vv. 13-22.) (1) Moses’ words to the people (vv. 13-14). (a) "Fear not." Since God was leading them by day and by night with the pillar of cloud und fire they had no need of fear, even If they were In straitened circumstances, (b) "Stand still.” Standing still in such a trlai Is faith taking hold of God’s promise. (c) "See the salvation of the Lord." "The Lord shall fight for you.” (2) God’s words to Moses (vv. 15-18). i (a) "Go forward.” No use to pray longer when God says “Move forward.’’ (b) "Lift up thy rod.” This served as something tangible upon which their faith could rest. They were to go through the sea on dry ground. But the symbol of God's presence now passed to the rear to hold the enemy at bas. (3) The divided sea (vv. 2122). As they went forward the very thing which they reared became n wall of protection on either side. 3. Overthrow of the Egyptians (vv. 22-27). Having seen the Israelites go across dry shod the Egyptians Immediately pursued them, Insanely thinking that they could follow in the wake of God’s children. That which was a protection to God’s children became an Instrument of destruction to the Egyp- . tlans. 4. Israel's Song of Triumph (15:1l 21). They attributed their deliverance and the overwhelming defeat of their enemies to God. They could well sing their song of triumph, for they were on tiie other shore. V. The Law Given (Exodus 20:1-17). [ God gave through Moaes to the world a ’ I complete eoS* of laws setting forth ' duties to God and man.
