Sunday School Week 3
Exodus 3
7 The Lord said, “I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering.
8 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, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites.
TITLE: Rescued For A Reason
1. To Fulfill His Promise
Exodus 6
8 “I will bring you to the land I promised to give to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I will give it to you for your own. I am the Lord.”
God loves people who leave a legacy.

16 But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.

3. To Kneel With Praise
Exodus 3
11 But Moses protested to God, “Who am I to appear before Pharaoh? Who am I to lead the people of Israel out of Egypt?”
12 God answered, “I will be with you. And this is your sign that I am the one who has sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God at this very mountain.”
Praise was proof that they had been rescued.
