What did Pharaoh command to be done to the Israelite baby boys? Did all the women delivering babies obey that command? What does that tell us about who they feared more—God or Pharaoh? How should we be like these brave women? Takeaway: Like the women who helped to deliver babies, we should “obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29). 2. What bad things could have happened to baby Moses? How did God protect him? God protects all his people. How do you feel knowing that God protects you? Takeaway: God protects his people, just like he protected baby Moses. 3. What do you think it means when God calls himself “I am who I am” (Ex. 3:14)? How is that different from any other person in the world? Why do you think Jesus used the same phrase to describe himself? Takeaway: Jesus is the great “I AM,” which means he is the always-and-for- ever God.

What are some of the hard things that happened to Joseph? How did God use those things for good? What does this show us about God? Takeaway: God works all things according to his perfect plan. 2.
