The Businesspeople of the Exodus
Exodus 4:18 Moses went back to Jethro his father-in-law and said to him, “Please let me go back to my brothers in Egypt to see whether they are still alive.” And Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.”

Pharaoh commanded to kill all Israelite male infants after they were born. At that time, God used church officers who were businesspeople who were inside the covenant. They knew what God desired, and they saw His plan toward the field. What did the businesspeople of the Exodus do?
1. Jochebed (God’s glory) and Jethro (renowned and superior)
Jochebed was the wife of Amram the Levite. While serving as the nanny for her son Moses who was adopted by Pharaoh’s daughter, Jochebed relayed all the messages to Moses and raised him as a leader. Jethro was the father-in-law of Moses. As the priest of Midian, he also played the role of Moses’ supporter.
2. Rahab (broad and large)
Rahab was a prostitute in Jericho. She was the source of all information within the city. She confessed to the spies that the land of Canaan was already in a state of collapse and victory was absolutely found in God’s covenant. Later, she became the wife of Salmon from the tribe of Judah and gave birth to Boaz. Boaz begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David. Like so, the businesspeople of the Exodus blocked disasters.
If you are within the correct covenant, you will experience God-given answers that are beyond your imagination. You will make your small belongings, your field that you regard as difficult, and your insignificant church into spiritual masterpieces.
[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me to constantly remain inside Your covenant, see what You desire in the field, and discover Your plan. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

[Deep Questions]
Q. What Should You Do?
Someone sent me a text message.
It read, “My pastor is giving me a really hard time. What should I do in this situation?”
At that time, this was my response, “I was in the same situation as you for forty years. You must become your pastor’s right arm even though he gives you hardships. By doing so, you’ll see the mystery of evangelism before you.
However, that isn’t important. What God creates afterward is more crucial. You’ll save the world if you understand what I’m saying.”
If you look at problems accurately and respect people, it’ll take place.
