Ang pananampalataya din sa Diyos ang nag-udyok kay Moises na lisanin ang Egipto kahit magalit ang hari. Matatag ang kanyang kalooban sapagkat para niyang nakita ang Diyos.

Mga Hebreo 11:27

Pagod ka na ba sa buhay at feeling mo na there is no way out of your suffering? Gaya mo, naghirap din bilang mga alipin ang Israelites sa Egypt sa loob ng 430 years. This was until Moses answered God’s call for him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt.

Despite being an Israelite, Moses grew up as the son of the Pharaoh’s daughter. He was trained as a royal growing up. Although he grew up in the ways of the Pharaoh, he had this compassion for the Israelites. So, one day, he defended one of the Israelites, and this cost the life of an Egyptian guard. Moses, in his guilt, fled into the wilderness and stayed there for 40 years. Doon, mga tupa lamang ang madalas niyang makasama. Kaya naman nang sabihin ng Panginoon sa kanya na he will lead the Israelites out of Egypt, wala na ang dating confidence ni Moses humarap sa Pharaoh.

But despite this, Moses looked to God. Sa kanyang pagsunod, ten plagues were sent to Egypt. And every time, it proved that the God of Moses is truly alive and powerful. When the Pharaoh finally let the Israelites go, he chased them again. With nowhere to run to, the Israelites were feeling defeated. But once again, Moses put his faith in God, and indeed, He parted the Red Sea and made a way for the Israelites to escape and finally be free.

Ikaw, mula saan mo kailangang lumaya ngayon? Feeling mo ba nasa dead end ka na? Tandaan, the God who parted the Red Sea can also make a way for you. Tiwala lang!
