Jochabed
Imagine being a pregnant slave whose baby could be killed upon their birth if they were male thanks to the current king of Egypt? Jochabed did not have to imagine. She lived in this reality—not knowing for months if she carried a boy or girl. As her labor began, the time came for Jochabed to put her Faith in God to the test. Would he protect her son?
When the baby boy Moses, arrived she kept him hidden for three months. The time soon came when he could no longer be hidden. She constructed a basket made of bulrushes, dabbed it with pitch, and then placed Moses in the basket. With a supernatural bout of courage, she floated the basket into the reeds at the river's edge. Can you imagine setting your baby afloat in a basket that you constructed? What faith she showed us women and mothers by this simple act.
1. Is there an area of your life where you need to trust God and step out in faith?
Prayer: Lord, I ask you today to strengthen me to step forward in complete faith to fulfill the tasks that you are calling me to do.

Eve and Mary may be the most well-known in Scripture, but the Bible is chock-full of women with rich character, bold faith, and powerful testimonies. Join us as we briefly study 30 “Women of the Bible” and learn about the ways God used them, sustained them, emboldened them, and provided for them. Women have been a part of God’s plan from the Garden of Eden until the present day. We pray your faith is encouraged and strengthened by spending some time getting to know these women’s accounts.
