In this message we learn what it was like to be living in Egypt at the time of the Exodus. It was exciting to be in Egypt during this time. We live lives that are rich compared to the actual lives of the people living in Egypt. This makes it easy for us to forget that if we want to be a part of God’s Kingdom we must come out of our Egypt. The slaves in Egypt could only be freed by God Himself. You and I can only be rescued from our lives in this world by this same God.
