Scripture Reading Exodus 4:18-31 Today’s Key Verse: Exodus 4:21a The LORD said to Moses, “Now that you are going back to Egypt, be sure to perform before the king all the miracles which I have given you the power to do.” Reflect Why do you think the LORD tells Moses that he will make the king of Egypt stubborn (verse 21)? What is Moses told to say in response to the king’s stubbornness (verses 22 and 23)?

Why is this significant in relation to the situation involving Egypt and the Israelites at this time? Pray Sovereign God, you are supreme over all creation. Your steadfast presence and faithfulness revive my spirit each day. I praise you for all your mighty deeds. Amen. Tomorrow’s Reading Exodus 5:1-21: Moses and Aaron go before the king of Egypt.
