STUDIES IN THE BOOK OF EXODUS
TOPIC: ISRAEL IN EGYPT
Exodus 1:1-7
INTRODUCTION:
Our God is a God of plan and design. He knows the end from the
beginning. Whatsoever He does is for our good and the
furtherance of His purpose for our lives. As we will be learning
from the Israelites today may our lives also become a source of
good lessons for the world, Amen.
A. Why should Israel be in Egypt? God spoke to Abram on the day He
entered into covenant with him that his seeds will be in Egypt for a
specific period of time. To Israel, Egypt was a school, the cauldron to
bring the best out of God's children.
Gen. 15:13-21, 12:10, 37:28, Exo. 2:5-10, Gal. 3:22-29, Exo. 1:11-
14, Heb. 5:8, 12:5-13.
B. A family can enter into bondage through the activity of one person.
Circumstances pushed Jacob to move into Egypt, and all his children
moved with him. Some families are in bondage today because of the
activities of one person.

ll Kings 20:12-18.

It was God's mercies that brought out Israel from Egypt. We all need
His mercies everyday.
