Exodus 11-12 is about the last plague, a foreshadowing of the reality of Christ.

In Exodus 7 thru 10, we discover nine plagues that deal primarily with God showing both the Hebrews and Egyptians that the gods of this world are false, empty and worthless.  3 points jumped out of the text at the 30,000 ft level.

Exodus 6:1-13;  Moses doubts God's goodness & promises; God gently rebukes him and let's Moses know that He will keep His promises.

In Exodus chapter 5, Moses is surprised when God's children suffer and he blames God. He accuses God of not keeping His promises. Young children are surprised when a Jack-in-the-box pops up; people young in their faith are also surprised when suffering pops up in their lives. 

Moses in Exodus 4:18-31 is still suffering from his crisis of faith; in this text is revealed 5 steps to come back to God.

Moses is still struggling with his failures and self-focus; When God calls him to go to Egypt in Exodus 4:1-17.... he doesn't want to go.

Moses is not sure of God's command to go back to Egypt; Moses learns it is not about himself, it's about the great "I AM"!

Moses finds a burning bush in Exodus 3:1-9. God, up until this moment has not revealed that much about what kind of God He is, but He declares 3 powerful attributes to Moses through the burning bush that answers the haunting question everyone asks: Does God care about my suffering?

Moses flees Egypt feeling like a failure. God will do 6 things to him in the next 40 years to untie the knots in his soul so that he is useful to God.  We learn in God's power structure that failing doesn't make you a failure!

In Exodus 2:11-15, Moses hears God's calling on his life, but determines to be a deliverer in his own strength.  Great lessons to learn for our lives today from Moses!
