Prayer of Moses - Seeking God
What caused Moses to pray?
After decades of undergoing severe bondage and slavery under the Egyptians, two million people freed from slavery danced in victory and worshiped the Living God. They journeyed to their homeland under the leadership of Moses. The once grateful and content people soon changed their song to a tune of murmur and discontent because they missed the merger rations that Egypt provided. In spite of the Lord commanding the people of Israel not to worship any other gods, they in the absence of Moses urged Aaron to build an idol and worshiped it. God was so angered by this that He threatened to wipe them out completely. Moses experienced a huge challenge leading this group of difficult and rebellious people and became a mediate between God and them. This caused Moses to pray and seek God’s help.

About this Plan
Haven't we all started a relationship with a word, maybe ignited by a thought or an action? Haven't we also wanted to be heard in a group or in one on one interactions? In this plan, you will be shown how different people in the Bible shared personal relationships with God and therefore approached Him for different reasons. In addition to hearing their prayers, God answered them and blessed their lives, and a new relationship begins with God and so does a new journey with God!
