The Story of the Exodus
Life is hard. Sometimes very hard. Whether we’re contending with grief or sickness, temptation or trial, we are challenged and find ourselves in challenging situations. Trouble comes in many forms: financial stress, parenting issues, marital conflict, relationship woes, or workplace ethics.
We need a deliverer. A redeemer. A Lord who wins the victory for us, and gives us the hope and the strength to not only carry on, but to thrive and grow.
The Israelites needed a deliverer when they were enslaved by the Egyptians. The book of Exodus is the story of that deliverance. God rescued them from slavery, won the victory over the evil that oppressed them, and claimed them as His own people as He led them to the promised land.
The Exodus is the premier redemptive event of the Old Testament. But it also is a signpost pointing to the ultimate deliverance in the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is the one who delivers us and wins the victory for us, dwelling with us as He leads us to the promised land of resurrection in the new heavens and the new earth.
Our worship series this fall will be on the story of the Exodus. Each week we will walk with Moses and the people of God on their journey of deliverance. And we will see how these events point to Jesus our deliverer and His work in our lives today.
