As Moses grows older and sees the iniquity of his people he lashes out, murders an Egyptian and flees to the land of Midian. It is here that he would meet his wife, have his first child, and meet the God of his fathers in a burning bush. It is here that God reveals Himself to Moses as the "I AM," the One above all, the One who has always been and always will be. Moses will see God's power and go back to lead the people as God's instrument of deliverance.
