Exodus 2:10
10 When the child grew older, she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, “Because,” she said, “I drew him out of the water.”
Anxiety wrecks so many lives as we worry over what tomorrow will bring. In Scripture, God commands us not to worry, but how? We get lots of advice that will never work. Closing our eyes and breathing or pumping ourselves up with positivity won’t hold up for the long haul. We need to see the God who has all things under His absolute control.
The name Moses means “to draw out”. As Moses was pulled out of the water of the Nile, so God would use Moses to draw His people out of the misery and death of slavery in Egypt. God used the rescue of a single baby to show how He would rescue a whole nation. He used His rescue of a nation to show how He would rescue the whole world through Jesus. Look to your Father and let your worry go.
Prayer prompt: Lord, teach me to remember the way you saved me so I will trust that you still love me.
