Baby in the Nile
This powerful message takes us back to one of the most dramatic moments in biblical history—the story of Moses' birth during a time of genocide in Egypt. We discover that children are not burdens but blessings, described in Scripture as 'a heritage from the Lord.' The sermon walks us through Exodus 2, where Moses' parents defied Pharaoh's murderous edict by hiding their baby boy for three months, then placing him in a basket among the reeds of the Nile River. What could have been a tragic ending became a divine setup—Pharaoh's daughter discovered the baby, and through God's providence, Moses' own mother was paid to nurse him. This story reveals profound truths about parental faith in dangerous times. Amram and Jochebed's faith rose above their fear, and though they couldn't see the future, God was orchestrating every detail. The message challenges us to recognize that we live in similarly dangerous times for children, where cultural forces seek to undermine godly values and confuse young minds about identity and truth. Yet just as Moses' parents fought for their child through faith, we are called to fight for our children with prayer, biblical teaching, and unwavering commitment to God's truth. The early years matter tremendously—children are 'wet cement' that hardens quickly, and what we instill in them during those formative years will shape their entire lives.
