06/11/2025 – The Beauty of Our New Birth
Scripture: Hebrews 11: 23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king’s command.
Reflection: Six women conspired to be instruments of life, and God blessed them and their households. Here we find the second team of women who are instruments of salvationJ Jochebed and her daughter Miriam. They decide to trust God for the salvation of the child. They conspire against the command of the power of this world, and they work to provide a means of salvation. The river that was intended to be an instrument of death, God turns into an instrument of salvation!
Jochebed implemented God’s plan for the salvation of her child. God has not only commanded our salvation. He has revealed a plan to save us. Jochebed received this plan from God. The Spirit of God must have revealed it to her in prayer. It was a wise and detailed plan based on the way God had saved Noah and his family: an ark. We have the mind of Christ- we should be able to outsmart the world. They only know to do evil. We know to do what is good.
A mother’s perception may be flawed, but God sees the true beauty He has placed in you! His own image! He sees the plans He has for you and your potential! He is keeping you from the plans of man, for they are only to harm you! He is using people to protect you.
