Don't Go Back (Exodus 3:7-8)

"... and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey”

We enter the story with God telling Moses about the land of Canaan… the land flowing with milk and honey… 

But as we continue through the story in their journey to the promised land, we see a common theme, “Moses, we are over it out here in the wilderness, let us go back to Egypt… because at least in Egypt there was certainty.”

Now that’s crazy work.

Let us go back to bondage, because at least bondage had certainty.
And every time I read this story, or even reflect back on it I get mad at them because I am baffled by their mindset…

… but then I realize that, so many times, we hold this same Egypt mindset.

We prefer the comfort of certainty over the discomfort of uncertainty, even when certainty comes in the form of bondage… because at least we know what to expect.

How many times have you chosen a situation you KNOW was wrong for you over the freedom of the blessings God has for you?

In today's episode, I want to dive into how God calls us to let go of Egypt, and walk with Him to the Land flowing with Milk & Honey.

... and with that being said, let's dive right in.
