Why Did Moses Say: Let My People Go, That they may Worship ME?

Why Did Moses Say: Let My People Go, That they may Worship ME!?

1. For Worship, for Blood, and for Work. Egypt was the empire of the day. They demanded extreme amounts of idolatry and false worship, and they were stealing it from God. They also demanded a lot of innocent blood, and lot of profits for free labor. Those are two things that cry out to God from the earth according to James chapter 5. God wanted the Hebrews to be a kingdom of priests that worshipped Him. And he wanted their labor to be paid for.

2. For Liberty. If Moses had never said let my people go, God would have never had the opportunity to destroy Egypt with plagues and glorify himself. You have to demand liberty in order to walk in power. This is why Jesus said proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prisons to them that are bound. Within those proclamations is a challenge to the oppressor. Luke 4

3. For Protocol: No matter how spiritual you are, you will never have control over anyone else’s will. If you seek to control someone else’s will, you are a sorcerer operating in witchcraft, not in the Holy Spirit. So God sent Moses to ask Pharoah to change his heart and his will and his desire for worship and free labor from the Hebrews. Pharaoh hardened his heart, and only then could Egypt receive the plagues.

4. For Others: The Bible commands us to speak up on the behalf of those that are opressed and ready to die. It does not tell us to be comfortable in our prosperity and ignore the needs of the poor because they don’t have all the power that we have. This is why Moses left the palace to help his people. And later he left a comfortable position as a shepherd to go back to serve his people at 80 years old. Also See Proverbs 31.

To Summarize: worship and freedom are closely connected. Thats why God told Moses to say: “Let My People Go – THAT THEY MAY WORSHIP ME!” If you are not leading people into true worship you will not lead them into true freedom. And if you don’t have the heart to proclaim liberty to the captives, healing for the broken-hearted, and justice for the oppressed,  they will never follow your example in worship.

the failure of pride and power politics 

Humility and righteousness are much more Powerful Forces than pride and power politics. So when you see the wicked gaining ground… its not because the wicked are strong. Its because there are not enough of the righteous. 
Sometimes its because too many of the righteous have been killed, or may have died without duplicating their obedience in their children or followers. Many times its because too many of the the righteous have fallen into pride and power politics instead of humility and obedience.

the American false Jesus

“Go ye into all the world, Steal, Lie, Kill, and oppress others to create profits, then ye shall forever be my righteous nation founded on conservative biblical principles.”
Which Jesus preached this?

Say it with me: “the empire will end, and that’s okay…”

I love Italians, but I’m so glad that the Roman empire is over. I love the people of Iran and Iraq, but I’m so glad that Persia and Babylon no longer rule the world. I love Egyptians, but I’m really glad that I am no longer a slave to Pharoah. 

God loves the people of every nation, because he created them. However all of man’s empires will come to an end, and that’s OK. Empires end – not because we want them to, but because God brings them to an end. 

Say it with me: “The empire will end, and that’s okay…” Just because you hate the evil deeds of an empire of man (empires are violent by nature, because it takes violence to establish empire), doesn’t mean that you have hatred for the people of those nations.

be a DOER and be with DOERS of Gods Word

So many people who think they are speaking for God are speaking for the devil and don’t even know it. These are perilous times.
Fall in love with truth and obedience. You won’t fully know the truth until you obey God. Until your obedience, you are subject to deception.
John 17:7

If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
This applies to your fellowship also. Stay away from the actors and performers of Gods word. Get close to the doers.
Matthew 23 1Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: 2 “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. 3 So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.

dig up the past, look back, go back in time

When you talk about the past, if  negative things happened, a lot of self-righteous people will get convicted, and respond to you with a hardened heart, as if bringing up the past is a sign of bad character.

Name one prophet in the bible that did not dig up the past in order to link it to what was going on in the present and what was going to happen in the future… History is HIS-Story. Your testimony is your TEST!

You have a right to Defend Life

Let’s Keep it Real and Make it Plain:

Anyone that speaks against your responsibility to defend the paint does so because they want you to get dunked on and die:-) Ok… not literally die playing basketball, but you get the point.

However, more seriously:

Anyone that speaks against your responsibility to defend the unborn does so because they want babies to be killed and die.

Anyone who speaks against your responsibility to defend family does so because they want your family to be vulnerable to criminals and die.

Anyone that speaks against your responsibility to defend the church does so because they want the church to become corrupted, weak and suffer spiritual death.

Anyone who speaks against your responsibility to defend your people does so because they don’t want your people to exist, they want them to die out or go away.

Anyone who speaks against your responsibility to defend your nation, does so because they want your nation to come to an end and eventually die.

Who is the one that doesn’t want you to defend? For the first example, it’s a bad referee. But all the rest point back to satan, whose plan is to steal, kill, and destroy.

But Jesus came to give us abundant life! So Defend life!

THERE ARE PEOPLE IN HELL THAT LOVE YOU

There are people IN HELL THAT LOVE YOU and do not want you to arrive there with them. Hell is so painful that I guarantee there is someone there today that wishes they could send you a message not to come.
 
The only thing you can do to COMFORT your brother if he’s in hell – is not to go there. The only thing you can do to COMFORT your great great great grandfather if he’s in hell – is to not go there with him.
 
There might be someone in hell praying for you more than the people on earth are!
 
Luke 16
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
 
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
 
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
 
26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
 
27 Then he said, I PRAY THEE therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:
 
28 For I HAVE FIVE BRETHREN; that he may testify unto them, LEST THEY ALSO COME TO THIS PLACE OF TORMENT.

teach Servanthood

Teach your son to be a leader, and he’ll probably lead himself and others astray… Teach your son to be a servant and he will end up being the greatest leader also. (1st & 2nd Samuel).

I fear I am integrating my people into a burning house

“I’ve come upon something that disturbs me deeply. We have fought hard and long for integration, as I believe we should have, and I know we will win. But I have come to believe that we are integrating into a burning house. I’m afraid that America has lost the moral vision she may have had. And I’m afraid that even as we integrate, we are walking into a place that does not understand that this nation needs to be deeply concerned with the plight of the poor and disenfranchised. Until we commit ourselves to ensuring that the underclass is given justice and opportunity, we will continue to perpetuate the anger and violence that tears the soul of this nation. I fear I am integrating my people into a burning house.”Martin Luther King
Revelations 18

4 I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Many leaders have made the same mistake, not realizing that sometimes persecution is a form of Gods mercy, separating you from those who will receive eternal judgements.
