Scripture:
Ex 5:20 Then, as they came out from Pharaoh, they met Moses and Aaron who stood there to meet them. 21 And they said to them, ""Let the LORD look on you and judge, because you have made us abhorrent in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us.""

And now, Admonition, brought to you by the Collierville Church of Christ.
Have you ever thought, if I just do what God says, everything's going to work out, everything's going to get better every single start looking up. Sometimes that's true, but not always. Sometimes we might be getting a little ahead of ourselves because sometimes when we obey God, things start getting worse before they start getting better. In Exodus chapter five we read this: Then, as they came out from Pharaoh, they met Moses and Aaron who stood there to meet them. And they said to them, Let the LORD look on you and judge, because you have made us abhorrent in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us. The Israelites were mad at Moses and Aaron who they were just being thankful for a chapter earlier because now their life was worse because Pharaoh was making their life harder. They said you're here to kill us. They weren't, but it got worse before it got better. When things go wrong in your life, but you're being faithful to God. Stay faithful.
