Read and Meditate on Today’s Daily Guide Devotional for 15th January 2023. May the Lord bless you as you study!

TODAY’S TOPIC: GOD IS IN COMPLETE CONTROL!

Opening Prayer: May my heart, O Lord, be receptive to your word as I meditate on it.

SCRIPTURE: EXODUS 2:1-10

Question(s) for Reflection
• Q 1: What does the passage teach about God the Father, or God the Son or God the Holy Spirit?

• John Hagee 13 January 2023 Daily Devotional – John 4:24

OUTLINE FOR TODAY: There is a saying in Yoruba about the person who demonstrates he is stronger than you by using your own hand to slap you.

Pharaoh was ruler of the world’s only superpower of his time, but the Almighty God of Israel was about to teach him a lesson. God had chosen someone to free the children of Israel from his mighty power and Pharaoh was going to train that man. From the milk he drank as a baby to the full cost of his elite education, Pharaoh was to pay the costs in full. What is more, Pharaoh’s own decree that boys born to his Israelite slaves should be drowned in the Nile (1:22) was the tool God used to make this happen (vs.5-10).

This should give us encouragement as believers in this amazing God who is able to use even the plans of the enemy to accomplish His own purposes. Supremely, this is what He did when He used the betrayal of Judas, the false charges of the Jewish leaders, and the injustice of Pilate which put Jesus on the Cross of Calvary to work out His salvation for us!

Practice/Word Application
And so: Meditate on v.9 again, is there any child God is calling you to take away and nurse for Him? Do not hesitate any further!

• Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?

Closing Prayer
Pray that the truth of Romans 8:28 will be evident in your life today and always.

Offer a prayer of faith in line with 1 John 4:19
