So the Lord responded to the sound of the groaning of the Israelites in Egypt. He declared that He would deliver them and bring them out of their enslavement.

God showed His ability as a Deliverer to them. He is that same Deliverer today. He hears the groaning of those who cry out to Him from their captivity.

Psalm 61 says, “Hear my cry O God and attend unto my prayer. From the ends of the earth will I cry unto Thee. When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the Rock that is higher then I.” That Rock is Jesus.

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, hear the cries of so many in slavery to their sin. Bring a great deliverance to their lives. Make me sensitive to be a minister of reconciliation to them.

DAILY READING: Ex. 4-6
