Moses the Leader

I am going to be talking about Moses and the law it was written in the book of exodus. Moses was born a Hebrew in Egypt. Hebrews we're an Israelite slave in Egypt at the time when Moses was born Hebrews started to expand so large that the Egyptians started getting terrified and saying what if the Hebrews outgrow us? If they outgrow us that means the Hebrew will out number the Egyptians so therefore if the Hebrews wanted to take over they will be able to because they outnumber the Egyptians. Pharaoh came up with this idea If he killed all Hebrew baby boys at birth he wouldn’t have to worry about that problem so Pharaoh ordered that all Hebrew baby boys are to be put to death at birth.

There must be a strange feeling Moses experiences and I’m sure he probably did feel inadequate to this great task. Many of us would have questioned God in his choice. Look at “Moses as he says that, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee. Does this sound like something you may of been through, I have and I’m sure you may of you felt the same way also? Moses is like many of us, caught in our feelings and emotions and leaning on them in a critical time in our life.

Ramses the Pharaoh wouldn’t let the Israelites out of Egypt, so Moses stepped in and led the Israelites out of Egypt, which we know as the Exodus. If I were an Israelite, I would join Moses out of Egypt. I would do this because being a slave would mean being tortured. Moreover, Moses had powers from God, so it was save to be with him. He had the Ten Commandments, so people would know how to live their daily lives.

Moses: Moses was born in a time when his people, the Israelites, an enslaved minority, were increasing in numbers and the Egyptian Pharaoh was worried that they might ally with Egypt's enemies. God sent Moses back to Egypt to demand the release of the Israelites from slavery. Moses said that he could not speak with assurance or eloquence, so God allowed Aaron, his brother, to become his spokesperson. After the Ten Plagues, Moses led the Exodus of the Israelites out of Egypt and across the Red Sea, after which they based themselves at Mount Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments

~ The Jews, were being used as slaves in Ancient Egypt and were looking for their promise land. Moses was the one who brought them to their freedom to bring them forward to their promise land, sent forth by God.

God narrative flow hears the Israelites moaning and groaning, so He emergence Moses an Egyptian to be the leader of faith in Egypt. God narrative plan continues perfectly for Him that His promise for every generation is fulfilled in the earth and among covenant with Abraham, Jacobs, and Isaac families. Fretheim study highlights the main events of God structure plan for Israelites journey through Exodus concerning Moses as their leader. God engage His divine plan for the covenant law, “the Ten Commandments on Mt. Sinai” (106). Exodus flows with several phenomena events taken place “the Passover and the feast of unleavened bread, the Red Sea crossing, and giving of the law at Mt. Sinai” for the people of Israel to recognized God constitutive foundation establishment for ongoing communities of faith (101-102). God capture Moses attend through a burning bush. Moses, Moses, God calls take off your sandals you are standing Holy ground and Moses reluctantly said this is I God informs Moses to go and demand Pharaoh to let the Israelites go free. Fretheim reflects that “God actions are because of Pharaoh disobedience to the will of His creation of a

Exodus 7- 14 begins with Yahweh’s people under the authority of Pharaoh and Pharaoh won’t let them go. Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Moses’ brother, Aaron, and told them to tell Pharaoh to let His people go. Throughout the chapters, Yahweh will strengthen Pharaohs heart letting His signs and wonders multiply throughout Egypt. The land of Egypt will experience many acts of judgements resulting in death and in the freedom of Yahweh’s people.

Moses grew up in royalty, but was disliked by the Pharaoh, the egyptians, and even his own people. While he tried to be nice, his people were bitter and had once even said “‘Who made you a price and a judge over us?’”(110) His people may have hated him, but they had no idea his intentions. So the hatred from the Israelites pushed him to leave Egypt and meet God.

So he goes on another journey and leaves his family to rescue the Hebrew people from Egyptian oppression. He creates an army of Hebrews to fight back the Egyptian army. This is not successful in the movie, God brings about the plagues. His hometown of Egypt gets riddled by a plague and Ramses is killing families until they find Moses. Then the horrible plagues happen in Egypt, because of Ramses hardened heart.

“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” – Author John C. Maxwell. It is very important for the President of the United States to have sound leadership qualities because we, as citizens, look up to him. He is a role model and represents America as a whole. Three characteristics that would make an outstanding President would be honesty, patriotism, and commitment. Without these characteristics, a candidate would lack the ability to represent America, much less run the country properly.

The religious function of the Exodus story introduces the major characters that play a role in this myth. Moses, a descendant from a long line of Israelites, becomes the main character in determining the fate of the Israelites in Egypt. He first experiences the voice and wisdom of God in the form of a burning bush (Ex. 3:3). While in the physical form of a fire, the Lord instructs Moses to “rescue them (the Israelites) from the hands of the Egyptians and lead them out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing

: It wasn’t until Moses was eighty years old when he received his commission to deliver Israel out of bondage. Through Moses, God begins the plan of answering the prayers of the Israelites. God does this through an unknown foreigner working as a shepherd. Through this understanding, Moses learned about life in the desert and the ways of the people, he would one day lead out of bondage. Moses didn’t realize that this was God’s way of preparing him to free the people of Israel from Pharaoh’s control.

The last major wide screen rendition of the Moses story was The Prince of Egypt (1998), which was additionally the initially energized film created by DreamWorks (however it was the second enlivened film they discharged, after a very late change to the discharge date of Antz). This was the first film to envision that Moses and Ramses may have been companions at to begin with, as opposed to adversaries—an idea obtained by Exodus: Gods and Kings (see CT 's survey)— and it was additionally one of the first significant movies in late memory to forcefully court the religious business sec

By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, choosing rather to suffer affiliation with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season, esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt; for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward. By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the King; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. (Hebrews 11:24-27)

This paper will point out three major events in the life of Moses, the son of Amram and Jochebed. He was known as the friend of God. “And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God” (James 2:23 King James Version). The events will then be related to timeless principles such as completely breaking ties to the world, taking on the desire and will of the one true God, having complete trust in God. And finally this paper will explain how these events and principles can be applied to human lives today.
