Exodus 1 - Finding Jesus in Exodus - Part 2 "The Tension Between Promise and Deliverance"

Join us today as Dr. Becker continues through Exodus 1 in his sermon titled, "The Tension Between Promise and Deliverance.Q1. Will you trust the sovereignty of God in political upheaval? - Regimes change. Policies shift. Cultural climates grow hostile. But the church does not rest upon the favorable legislation. It rests upon divine decree. Your confidence must not be in princes, but in providence. Q2. Will you refuse the idolatry of control? - Pharaoh's sin was not merely cruelty - it was usurpation. He sought to control what belongs to God: growth, life, destiny. When we attempt to secure ultimate control over our careers, families, reputations, we mirror Pharaoh more than we realize. Repent of the illusion of sovereignty . God alone reigns.Q3. Will you cultivate a reverent fear of God, above the fear of man? - If you do not cultivate reverence for the holiness of God, you will inevitably bow to cultural pressure. A diminished view of God always produces compromised obedience. Recover a robust, trembling awareness of divine majesty. Q4. Will you understand that opposition does not signal abandonment? Israel's suffering did not contradict God's promise - in confirmed its significance.
