BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ezra 3, Ezra 4, Ezra 5, Luke 17, Luke 18.
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Exodus 2:1-10 (KJV)
1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
2 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
3 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river’s brink.
4 And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.
5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river’s side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children.
7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother.
9 And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it.
10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
We see God’s faithfulness and might in all of Jochebed’s trials. The master planner saw to it that all through the three months that Jochebed was hiding Moses, no one detected despite the fact that the baby was crying and sometimes they were having visitors who might come greeting, no one detected they had a boy. I want you to recall those moments you were at your wit’s end and you thought you will be put to shame, but Jehovah came through and the thing you thought would end in shame ended in testimonies.
Again, God began to move upon the heart of the pagan daughter of a pagan king, so that at the exact time the baby Moses lay by the river’s edge, Pharaoh’s daughter came to this very place to take a swim. There was something supernatural and marvelous taking place here. This was God responding to the faith of a mother who dared to trust in Him. And when the little crib was brought to Pharaoh’s daughter, she saw that it was a little Hebrew baby. We must remember that the young woman was the king’s daughter, and that the hatred for the Israelites was bred into the very core of her being. The expected thing for her to do was to have the little boy tilted over into the water. But once again we see God behind the scenes! The Scripture says, “And, behold, the babe wept” (Exodus 2:6). God saw to it that the baby should weep at this very moment. Probably an angel had pinched the baby. Pharaoh’s daughter, although a heathen princess, had a mother’s instinct, and one thing that touches a woman’s heart is a crying baby. Something happens when woman’s heart meets a baby’s tears. At any rate, Pharaoh’s daughter was determined to adopt and protect this particular Hebrew baby. God’s purpose in redeeming Israel depended at that very moment on the helpless cry of a little baby. The cry of the little child aroused the maternal instinct of Pharaoh’s daughter, and baby Moses was spared.
Beloved, God works in mysterious ways far beyond our logic. God can be relied upon and I pray that God will make us mysterious wonders, in the Name of Jesus.
