Yes. 02:30 That we can know that God's gonna fight for us. 02:33 He'll always be there no matter what. 02:35 Uncle Aron, do you have a story something about that? 02:38 I do. 02:40 Are you, boys and girls, ready to hear a story 02:41 about the man, Moses? 02:43 Yes! All right. 02:45 Well, Moses was born. 02:49 Where was Moses born in the Bible? 02:51 Who knows? Cate? 02:54 In Egypt. That's right. 02:56 Moses' story begins in Egypt. 02:59 And Moses was born there, but his people, 03:02 the children of Israel or the Hebrews, 03:05 they weren't living too good of lives. 03:08 They were slaves. 03:10 They were in bondage in Egypt. 03:12 Do you guys want to be slaves? No. 03:15 No, but they were born as slaves. 03:18 And as they're growing up, and eventually, 03:22 the Pharaoh there sent. 03:24 There are so many of these slaves 03:25 they're getting so great in number we need to, 03:28 we need to reduce their number, 03:30 we need to kill some of them. 03:31 But fortunately, Moses was able to escape 03:34 and he was raised in the house of Pharaoh himself. 03:38 Now eventually, when Moses got older 03:40 he did something bad and he had to run away. 03:44 And this is where we're gonna pick up 03:45 our story today. 03:47 There was Moses, 03:48 he was out in the land of Midian. 03:51 And when he was out there, he was a shepherd. 03:53 What do shepherds do? Who knows what shepherds do? 03:56 Okay, Hannah, right here. 03:58 Take care of sheep. That's exactly right. 04:01 Moses was taking care of sheep. 04:04 Really, the Lord was preparing him for a work 04:07 that he would do very soon. 04:09 One day, as he was preparing for sheep, 04:11 he came across a certain bush, 04:14 but there were something very special about this bush. 04:17 Who knows what was special about this bush? 04:19 Let's go right over here. 04:21 It was burning. 04:22 It was burning, but it wasn't burning up. 04:27 It was a very special fire. 04:29 And this intrigued Moses, this caught Moses' attention. 04:32 Will this catch your attention? 04:34 If something was burning without being destroyed, 04:37 and Moses went over to check it out. 04:40 And the closer he got, all of a sudden, 04:42 he heard a voice. 04:44 It was the voice of God, 04:46 the angel of the Lord was there. 04:48 And God told him, "Hey, Moses, 04:50 the place where you're standing is holy. 04:53 And you need to take off your sandals." 04:55 And so that's what Moses did. 04:56 He took off his sandals, and he approached God. 04:59 Now, this is one of the most amazing interactions 05:02 in all of scripture. 05:04 God there began to speak with Moses and say, 05:06 "Moses, I have a special mission for you to do. 05:09 I want you to go back to Egypt, the place where you fled from, 05:14 and do something amazing 05:16 for your people for your family." 05:20 Who knows? What did God want Moses to do? 05:24 Yeah. 05:27 Free the slaves. 05:30 That's exactly right. 05:32 God wanted to use Moses to free the slaves 05:35 because the Hebrew people were in bondage. 05:38 And so there Moses at first, he didn't really want to, 05:42 he thought, "Well, my voice, my speech, 05:46 I can't speak very well. 05:47 I'm a little bit scared. 05:49 I don't want to do this." 05:50 But God spoke to Moses and he made sure that 05:53 he knew that it's not anyone who has special abilities 05:58 that God can use, but God can use anybody. 06:01 Did you guys know that that God can use anybody? 06:04 That's right, Uncle Aron. 06:06 Do you believe that God can use you? 06:08 Who thinks that God can use you? 06:09 Raise your hand. 06:11 That's right. God can use you here. 06:13 And, boys and girls, at home, God can use you. 06:15 It doesn't matter if you're really smart 06:17 or really strong, 06:19 God can take whatever you have and use it for His service. 06:23 So there was God calling Moses. 06:25 And Moses said, "Okay, God, as long as You call me, 06:28 I believe that I can do what You asked of me." 06:30 And so Moses went back to Egypt. 06:34 And when he went back to Egypt, 06:35 he got a little bit of help from his brother 06:38 and who knows what Moses' brother's name? 06:42 I'll give you a clue. I know. 06:44 It has to do with my name. Okay, right over here. 06:47 Aaron. That's right. 06:49 Me. My name is Aron too. 06:51 I'm Uncle Aron. 06:52 And Moses had a brother named Aaron. 06:54 And God brought Aaron and Moses back together. 06:57 You think Aaron was glad to see his brother? 06:59 Yeah. 07:00 They hadn't seen each other in 40 years. 07:02 Whoa, 40 years a long time. 07:05 I'm not even 40 years yet myself. 07:07 Now when Aaron and Moses got back together, 07:10 they teamed up and they said, "Okay, 07:12 we're gonna go before Pharaoh 07:13 just like how God asked, and we're gonna ask him 07:16 to let my people go." 07:19 God's asking Pharaoh to let My people go. 07:21 Moses and Aaron went into Pharaoh. 07:24 And was Pharaoh ready to let them go 07:26 right then and there? 07:28 No! No! 07:30 They talk things out, and Pharaoh was being stubborn. 07:34 He wasn't ready to move. 07:36 And so God knew that this would happen. 07:38 And so God told Moses and Aaron to do certain miracles 07:42 that would catch Pharaoh's attention. 07:44 Would miracles catch your guys' attention? 07:46 Yes! 07:48 Has anyone here ever seen a miracle before? 07:50 Anyone. I've experienced some miracle. 07:53 That's awesome. You have? 07:54 Well, the first miracle that God called Moses and Aaron 07:58 to do was actually involved a staff. 08:01 Now, since my name is Aron, I think I've got a staff 08:04 lying around here somewhere. 08:05 Let's see. Oh, here it is. 08:11 Is this a good staff for me, right? 08:13 Aron staff. 08:14 So God came, excuse me, Moses came and Aaron came 08:18 and the first thing that he told him to do was what? 08:23 Oh, he said to let my people go, 08:25 but in order to show that God was really powerful, 08:27 Aaron cast his staff to the ground like this. 08:31 Whoa! 08:33 And what happened to the staff? 08:34 It turned to a snake. That's right. 08:36 It turned to a snake. 08:37 Now, wouldn't that grab your attention? 08:39 Yeah, snakes. 08:41 Scary at times. 08:42 So there it is. It turned to a snake. 08:44 But Pharaoh, what did he do in response to that? 08:51 I heard over here. 08:52 He got his magicians to turn their staffs 08:54 into snakes as well. 08:56 But what happened to the Pharaoh snakes. 09:00 They were eaten and were eaten by Aaron snake. 09:03 Then Aaron grab the snake by the tail. 09:05 And what happened to that snake? 09:08 It turned right back into a staff. 09:10 Wow! Amazing. 09:12 I bet Pharaoh let them go now, right? 09:14 Well, you'd hope he did. 09:16 But he still wasn't convinced. 09:19 God had to send through Moses using Moses and Aaron, 09:23 a number of plagues. 09:25 Who knows how many plagues were sent upon the Egyptians? 09:28 Let's go right here. Ten. 09:30 That's right. Ten plagues. 09:32 How many fingers do you guys have on your hands? 09:34 Ten. Ten. 09:35 Yeah, most of us have 10 fingers. 09:37 God sent 10 plagues to try to grasp 09:40 hold of Pharaoh to say, "Come on, man. 09:42 I mean, business. I'm serious. 09:44 I really need my people to get out of here." 09:46 And so God sent these plagues, one after another. 09:50 Who knows a few of the plagues? 09:53 Let's see. Let's go right here. 09:55 Eva? 09:57 Name one or two. 09:59 The frogs and the flies. 10:02 That's right. God sent some frogs. 10:04 God sent some flies. 10:05 Let's go over here to Hannah. 10:08 God sent locusts and darkness. 10:12 Oh, that's good. Locusts and darkness. 10:16 He turned the water into blood. 10:18 And He sent death upon everybody, 10:22 upon every firstborn child. 10:24 Oh, yeah, these are some scary plagues. 10:26 That's right. 10:28 The first plague was actually turning the water into blood. 10:31 Whoo! 10:32 But eventually the last plague was where God said, 10:34 "Man, Pharaoh, you've been wishy-washy this whole time." 10:37 Okay. 10:39 Said, "Okay, I'll agree and then he backed out of it." 10:40 And so finally God said, 10:41 "All right, here's the last plague." 10:43 Unfortunately, unless your family 10:46 has the blood of the Passover lamb 10:49 above their doorpost, 10:50 that the firstborn in the household is gonna die. 10:54 Yeah. 10:55 But all the Israelites, what did they do? 10:57 Did they obey God? Yes! 10:58 Yeah. 11:00 And they put the blood right over the doorpost. 11:01 So did any of the Israelite children die? 11:04 No. 11:06 No, 'cause God loves the children. 11:07 God want to protect them. 11:09 Those who would put their faith in an awesome powerful God. 11:12 And finally, after the 10th plague 11:15 Pharaoh finally said, 11:16 "Okay, you guys can get out of here." 11:20 Then the Israelites, 11:22 do you think they were celebrating? 11:23 Yes. 11:25 Yeah, let's hear a little celebration. 11:26 Woohoo! 11:27 We get to leave Egypt finally. 11:29 And so they begin to make their way out. 11:31 And as they were making their way out, 11:33 they came to a certain body of water. 11:35 What was this place called? 11:37 Who knows? Any? 11:38 So gonna point in the back here. 11:40 See, Ben, what was this body of water that they came to? 11:44 The Red Sea. That's right. 11:45 The Red Sea. They came to the Red Sea. 11:48 And once they were there, 11:49 they realized that Pharaoh's army, 11:51 Pharaoh once again changed his mind. 11:52 Oh, no. And he came... 11:54 Yeah, he came with his whole army 11:55 to catch them there. 11:57 You guys have heard of about 11:58 being between a rock and a hard place. 12:01 Well, this is between a sea and an army, 12:04 not a place you'd wanna be. 12:06 And there the Israelites thought, 12:08 "There's no way that we can escape." 12:10 And they begin to doubt God and doubt Moses and say, 12:13 "Oh, you brought us here to die, 12:14 and, oh, God is mean." 12:17 But God had a plan to deliver them. 12:19 Didn't He? Yes, He did. 12:21 He split the Red Sea. Wow! 12:26 Hey, guys, let's make a Red Sea ourselves. 12:29 Let's stand up and see what God did. 12:30 That's pretty cool. 12:31 And then they walked through it. 12:33 Then they walked through it. 12:34 All right, so let's make a Red Sea. 12:35 Let's split that Red Sea. Okay. 12:40 All right. 12:42 So there was the sea all below, and then God said... 12:46 Moses put his rod into the water 12:49 and split the Red Sea 12:50 so that the water stood straight up, 12:53 put your, put the waves, straight up, everyone. 12:55 Good. 12:56 Now let's begin to walk through it 12:58 just like how the Israelites did. 13:01 Good. 13:02 Whoa! 13:04 Are you guys dry in there? 13:07 You're dry in there? 13:08 Yeah, just like how God delivered His people 13:11 by performing a miracle 13:13 and separating the waters apart. 13:17 Awesome. 13:24 Wow, boys and girls, as you can see 13:26 we have had a good time on Bible Gems. 13:30 Remember, to search the scriptures 13:33 and find your Bible Gems till next time. 13:36 Bye.
