Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, so that they may worship me.”
Exodus 9:1
Make no mistake from the beginning God pursued us for the purpose that we were designed - WORSHIP.
Yes, the people in Egypt were slaves, but there release from slavery was not because the captivity was so bad (remember how they got themselves into this situation?).
God's purpose in releasing them from captivity was so that they might worship God freely. Their captivity was a barrier to their ability worship.
The call is not only "Let my people Go!" - you need to finish the sentence "so that they may worship!"
If God were to release you from that which keeps you from worship, what would you be released from?
What holds you captive today?
