Exodus 2 · Grade 4
God Hears and Remembers
Read and Think
Moses' mother trusted God and protected her son. Hebrews 11:23 says that by faith Moses' parents hid him and were not afraid of the king's command.
God worked in amazing ways. The daughter of the very king who wanted baby boys to die rescued Moses. Moses' own mother was even paid to nurse him. God can turn the plans of the powerful upside down.
Moses tried to help his people in his own way and by his own strength, and it went badly. He had to run away. But God had not forgotten His people. He heard their cries and remembered His promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
