Exodus 1-5 [The Message]

All mothers think their children are special. If they don’t, they should. But when others notice that special IT factor in a child, this may be evidence that God has a special calling or job for this child. This was said of baby Moses.

The circumstances of his birth were extraordinary. His survival was miraculous, as Pharoah had commanded the murder of all Hebrew boy births. No doubt God’s Holy Spirit was directing the actions of his family that led to his being placed in a floating basket where Pharaoh’s daughter would find him and adopt him.

Herein is a key. God will give you special instructions or challenges in raising this child. You may witness a miraculous way God preserves him/her and charts a distinctive path for their life. Pay close attention to God’s mandate and guidance.

George Frideric Handel was a special child. His parents were determined that he would be a doctor in the family tradition, but God had music in mind.
