“Jochebed’s heart must have
suffered bitterly as she walked her
little boy into the unknown world
within the palace gates…”

“She offered him one last kiss, one
last bit of instruction, and one last
prayer- then off he went presumably,
to never see her again.”

14. one question:
Moses was called from the womb,
but what did he lack that 40 years
in the wilderness gave him?

15. the wilderness
It took one day to take Moses out
of an evil culture, but 40 years to
take the evil culture out of him.

Salvation takes a moment of belief,
but transformation takes a lifetime
of discipleship.

19. “He made known His ways to
Moses; His acts to the children of
Israel.”

20. our legacy
To be saved sees all that God does.
To be transformed is to know why
God does it.

21. our legacy:
To be saved may involve conditional
love that always wants for more.
To be transformed is unconditional
love that wants for nothing but God.
Psalm 106:7-15

22. our legacy:
To be saved may express thankfulness
when circumstances are good.
To be transformed is to express
thankfulness at all times.
Psalm 106:7-15
