Daily Bible Reading – July 2023, God’s Saving Word: Mercy and Forgiveness預覽
July 9
Introduction
Moses and Aaron are unsuccessful in their attempt to have the king of Egypt free the Israelites. The Israelites are forced to work harder, and they blame Moses and Aaron for their increased oppression.
Scripture Reading
Exodus 5:1-21
Today’s Key Verse: Exodus 5:1b
“The LORD, the God of Israel, says ‘Let my people go, so that they can hold a festival in the desert to honor me.’”
Reflect
Why does the king of Egypt refuse to free the Israelites? How does he intensify their oppression? The king says that he does not “know the LORD” (5:2). What does it mean to you to “know the LORD”?
Pray
Lord God, when hardships and trials come my way, keep me strong in faith and close to you. Trusting in your love and mercy, I entrust myself to your care. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow's Reading
Exodus 5:22—6: 13: Moses complains to the LORD.
