(CHILD-FRENDLY) GET OUT OF EGYPT!

Bible Verse: “So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land…” Exodus 3:8

 

What Does “Get Out of Egypt” Mean?

In the Bible, Egypt was a place where God’s people were slaves. They worked hard, cried a lot, and were not free. But God loved them and sent Moses to help them get out of Egypt and take them to a better place.

Today, “Egypt” can mean anything that makes us feel stuck, sad, or far from God. It could be:

- Telling lies

- Being afraid

- Fighting with friends

- Not forgiving someone

- Doing things that we know are wrong

God wants to help us leave those things behind and live in freedom, peace, and joy.

How Can I Get Out of My Egypt?

1. Know what’s holding you back. Ask yourself: What makes me feel far from God?

2. Talk to God. Pray and ask Him to help you change.

3. Take small steps.  Say sorry, forgive, tell the truth, be kind.

4. Don’t go back. Even when it’s hard, keep moving forward.

5. Find good friends. Be around people who help you grow and love God.

Bible Story Reminder

When Pharaoh finally let the Israelites go, they left Egypt quickly! God opened the Red Sea and protected them. He didn’t just take them out—He took them into a better place.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

- Is there something I need to stop doing so I can follow God better?

- What is one good choice I can make today?

- Who helps me grow closer to God?

- How can I help someone else get out of their “Egypt”?

PRAYER: Dear Jesus, thank You for loving me and wanting the best for me. Help me to leave behind anything that makes me feel stuck or far from You. Give me courage to make good choices and walk in Your light. Thank You for giving me a new beginning. Amen.

Shalom

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
