"He leadeth me"

Day 16: Exodus 11-13

“The Lord went in front of them in a pillar of cloud by day, to lead them along the way, and in a pillar of fire by night, to give them light, so that they might travel by day and by night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.”

God freed the Israelites from slavery. He finally persuaded Pharaoh to let them go. And when they were freed, he led them.

God led the Israelites.

Just like God led the Israelites from their enslavement, he also leads us from ours. Not only does he free us, but he also shows us the way out. He leads us just like he led them. I find this very comforting.

And what's more is that he set the example for us on how we are to behave with new Christians. Not only should we show them how they can be released, but we should also lead them afterwards. We should show them how to live. He leadeth me/us, and now we lead others.
