The Struggle before Breakthrough

When Moses and Aaron first appeared before Pharaoh, they asked him to release the Israelites so they could celebrate a feast in honor of the Lord in the wilderness. Still, the king of Egypt refused and made the Israelites work even harder.

Needless to say, before things got better for the children of Israel, things appeared to have gotten worse. However, in the grand scheme of things, God came through on his promise and glorified his name during the process.

In today’s world, slavery looks a lot different than it appeared in ancient times. Nevertheless, while institutionalized slavery has been outlawed in most civil societies, many people are still plagued and bogged down with doctrines, ideologies, and mindsets that keep them enslaved to sin.

Addictions, destructive habits, and negative thinking patterns are all oppressive agents used by the enemy to keep us in bondage. When we ask God to break us free from these chains, it is important to remember that improvement may not happen overnight.

Truth be told, most times, we are liberated from these things through a process where God proves to us and those around us just how powerful he is.
