About this listen
In Exodus 4:18–31, Moses begins the long road of obedience by “going back to Egypt.” Called by God at the burning bush, he now returns to the very place of his failure and fear. This passage reminds us that God’s call is not theoretical—it sends us into real obedience, real danger, and real dependence. The Lord reassures Moses of His sovereign purpose, declaring that He will harden Pharaoh’s heart and redeem His “firstborn son,” Israel. Even the shocking episode of a quick bloody circumcision on the way teaches us that covenant obedience matters; the God who saves by grace also demands holiness from His servants. Yet throughout, the emphasis falls on God’s faithfulness. He provides Aaron, confirms His promises, and moves the elders of Israel to worship. This story proclaims God’s sovereign grace, covenant faithfulness, and missional heart. The God who sends also goes with His people—calling us to trust, obey, and worship as we go back into the world He intends to redeem.
