The Israelite foremen knew they were in trouble, because the king had told them, “You must make just as many bricks each day as you did before.” As they were leaving the meeting with the king, they met Moses and Aaron, who were waiting for them. So they said to Moses and Aaron, “May the LORD punish you. You caused the king and his officers to hate us. You have given them an excuse to kill us.” Then Moses returned to the LORD and said, “Lord, why have you brought this trouble on your people? Is this why you sent me here? I went to the king and said what you told me to say, but ever since that time he has made the people suffer. And you have done nothing to save them.”

As we look at this story and witness God’s response to the plight of his people, how can we respond with courage and compassion in prayer and petition for people who experience modern slavery and human trafficking?

We all have excuses as to why we cannot move when God tells us to. “I’m not qualified” or “I’m still getting training in that area”. We think that our limitations are God’s limitations and we stop moving. In Plan 4 of Learning from the Old Testament Greats, we see Moses’ journey from fearful to faithful. We learn from his life how one “grows as they go”.
