This is a small group that was following the plan to read through the Bible one chapter at a time with Good Morning Girls. Good Morning Girls is on an indefinite break. But will we continue reading through the Bible.
Each Monday go to the Weekly Reading Plan or the Bible Study Thread for our current book to see the introductory post for the week and the weekly reading passages, discussion questions, and memory verse.
Be sure to come here each day to see what the members of the group are sharing. Try to participate in the discussion with a post at least once each week to share with us what God is teaching you. Posting on the forum helps motivate all of us to keep reading by seeing the others persevering and it provides additional insight and learning.
Each Friday we will attempt to share a Friday Devotional that addresses some of the topics we have read that week.
Please also take time to read the Group Overview post that provides some ideas on how to get the most out of your study here! You can find this post in the the "Bible Study" section of the board.

Re: Exodus Overview
Exodus 2:24-25. This passage reminds me of the Parable of the Persistent Widow who never gave up when she wanted something from the Judge. She remained Persistent. The Isrealites continued to pray and God remembered them. This passage in the scriptures is meant to encourage us to pray for whatever it is we want without ceasing. Being persistent does not mean unending repetition or painfully long prayer sessions. It simply means keeping our requests constantly before God and always remember that delay is never denial. God will always have his eyes on us!
My prayer is that I be patient with God when I want something from him and always remember he has my best interest at heart

Exodus 1.17: the midwives however, FEARED God and did not do what the king ofEgypt had told them to do.They let the boys live.
Proverbs 9:10- THe fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom. Fear can mean so may things, terror one feels in frightening situations, Respect or an Awe someone feels in the presence of Greatness. The Fear of God is a mixture of all of these things. In order to develop fear for God, we must have a great awareness of who he is, reverence him deeply and Sincerly commit to Obey him. That is what the midwives did. They did not obey their king, instead they obeyed the King of Kings and the Lord of LOrds. In return,God rewarded them. (God rewards those who diligently serves him).
My prayer is that the Holy Spirit will help me always remember and see how great and big Our God is. That no matter what situation we find ourselves,let us always do what is right. God will always take care of us.

I just turned 32, married for almost 10 years and I have 3 boys. My Christian life has been like a roller coaster ride(sometimes I feel am taking the right steps and most times I feel I've missed my way) . I hope to find myself again in this group. Looking forward to learning and more especially being steadfast.
