The story of Israel by John Hagee
Philippians 3:13—Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead.

The story of Israel and their Exodus from Egypt is a classic study of human nature and how people respond to change.  Look very closely and you will find yourself!

That night all the people of the community raised their voices and wept aloud.  All the Israelites grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and the whole assemble said to them, “If only we had died in Egypt!  Or in this desert!  Why is the Lord bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword?  Our wives and children will be taken as plunder.  Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?  And they said to each other, “We should choose a leader and go back to Egypt” Numbers 14:14. 

The Exodus is a classic story of how people respond to change. The children of Israel were slaves in Egypt.  They had been beaten with whips like animals.  They had been abused, starved and worked beyond endurance.  They were living in shacks, dressed in rags.  The Egyptians had taken their male babies and drowned them in the Nile River.  Do you see a need for change here?  The children of Israel prayed one prayer for 400 years.  “Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, send us a deliverer.  Set us free from Pharaoh.”  There was a great need for change, and a great desire for a change.  But with change comes challenge.  And challenge comes the ability to overcome in Christ Jesus:

“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.  Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
