In Exodus 6:28-29, God once again reminds Moses of his task, which is to stand before Pharaoh and deliver to Pharaoh all of the words that God has spoken to Moses. As usual, Moses gives God an excuse! He says, “Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips. How will Pharaoh listen to me?” (v. 30). Moses feels very unfit to accomplish this task. Will the king of Egypt listen to this old, stuttering Hebrew man? What unfolds next should provide us all with great encouragement and prove to us that God uses very unfit people to accomplish His perfect plan!

In chapter two, we zoom in to see how the crisis of the Israelites affects the family of Moses. We can imagine that Moses, the author of Exodus, heard this story more than once from the mouths of the three women involved in his rescue from Pharaoh’s murderous edict. Let’s meet these women, each one an instrument of God’s providence.
Exodus 2:11-25

Moses will be the rescuer God chooses, and His vessel of salvation for the Israelites. It is striking that the first major event in Moses’ life is an act of despicable sin. Nevertheless, God uses Moses to bring about the deliverance of His people. This is a stark reminder that God uses even the most shameful events in human history to bring about His good purpose.
