Part 3: The Epic Story Begins – Exodus 1:1-14
THE BIG IDEA: The story of Israel is the story of a Holy God and
sinful people who are the object of God’s choice and mercy.
He draws
us out of our sin, our bondage in Egypt, and draws us into His presence
and a relationship with Him.
Exodus 1:1-14
1 These are the names of the sons of Israel who came to Egypt with
Jacob, each with his household: 2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
3
Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin, 4 Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.
5
All the descendants of Jacob were seventy persons; Joseph was
already in Egypt.
6 Then Joseph died, and all his brothers and all that
generation.
7 But the people of Israel were fruitful and increased greatly;
they multiplied and grew exceedingly strong, so that the land was filled
with them.
8
Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph.
9
And he said to his people, “Behold, the people of Israel are too many
and too mighty for us. 10 Come, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they
multiply, and, if war breaks out, they join our enemies and fight against
us and escape from the land.”
11 Therefore they set taskmasters over
them to afflict them with heavy burdens.
They built for Pharaoh store
cities, Pithom and Raamses.
12 But the more they were oppressed, the
more they multiplied and the more they spread abroad.
And the
Egyptians were in dread of the people of Israel.
13 So they ruthlessly
made the people of Israel work as slaves 14 and made their lives bitter
with hard service, in mortar and brick, and in all kinds of work in the
field.
In all their work they ruthlessly made them work as slaves.
Foundational Truths for God’s People

§
§
God’s plan is always for His Glory and for our Joy.
His plan is Redemption.
2. God’s Plan is built upon His Promises.
Genesis 3:15
Genesis 12:1-3
Genesis 15:5-6
Genesis 15:12-16
3. God keeps His Promises
2 Corinthians 1:20 “For all the promises of God find their Yes
in him.
That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to
God for his glory.”
2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some
count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any
should perish, but that all should reach repentance.”
Romans 10:9 “because, if you confess with your mouth that
Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him
from the dead, you will be saved.”
1 Corinthians 10:11 says, “Now these things happened to them as an
example, but they were written down for our instruction, on whom the
end of the ages has come.”
Lessons for All of Us:
1. God is Faithful – He Keeps His Promises on His Own Timetable
–You Can Trust Your Life to Him.
2. Hardship always accompanies walking with God.
Hardships are
constant opportunities to call on the God who is always there,
even when we’re waiting on His promise or we’re living in
Egypt.
3. God Calls Us Out of the Darkness of Our Bondage and Into the
Light of His Presence – Redemption is His Plan
4. Moses Points Us to the True, Better, and Ultimate Deliverer –
Jesus.
