Deuteronomy 6:21
We were slaves to the king of Egypt, but the Lord brought us out by His great power.
*****************
In this Exodus story, Pharaoh was a powerful oppressor of the Hebrew slaves. Moses was tasked with the assignment to secure freedom for a group of people who could not speak for themselves.
Detachment from an oppressor can be filled with chaos, conflict, and self-doubt. Moses encountered all this, yet remained firm in his commitment to secure freedom for God’s people.
Regardless of the century or the civilization, oppression is present whenever the powerful and the vulnerable co-exist.
Without excuse or explanation, you decisively detach from groups or organizations who exhibit little concern for social injustice or the negative impact it has on society.
You do not join those who belittle or diminish another’s worth. You remove yourself from environments which are darkened by oppression, hate, disrespect, or intolerance.
You speak for those who have no voice. You use the Lord’s words to bring freedom to those in bondage, healing to those in pain, and deliverance to those in despair.
Like Moses, you have been called by God for a special mission. In spite of countless questions about what to say or how to fulfill your role, you choose to simply respond, “Here I am,” and then wait for God to reveal His plan, one step at a time.
