God called Moses to deliver the people of Israel from the slavery and oppression they were suffering in Egypt. He gave Moses powerful signs to demonstrate his power and convince the sons of Israel that he had met with God and God had sent him to be their deliverer.

When Moses met with the Hebrew leaders and demonstrated the power of God they did believe that God had sent Moses, that He was concerned about them and that He had seen their affliction. The people then bowed low and worshipped.

Moses, and Aaron, his brother, then appeared before Pharaoh with the message God had given them, “Let my people go that they should celebrate a feast to Me in the wilderness.”

Some suggest this was a bit deceptive since God’s ultimate plan was to completely free the Hebrews, not just give them a long weekend of rest from their labors. But God instructed Moses to begin with this small request and thus the hardness of Pharaoh’s heart would be revealed in that he would not let them go for even such a small thing as going three days in the wilderness to celebrate a feast and worship God.

Pharaoh responded to Moses with a question that makes perfectly good sense, “Who is Jehovah that I should obey his voice? I don’t know this God Jehovah.”

That question is still being asked today, “Who is God that I should listen to His voice?” It is the most important question you will ever answer because it will determine the outcome of your life. If God created the heavens and the earth, we most certainly should want to know Him and listen to His voice.

I. One Day Everyone Will Know Him

 Pharaoh had never heard of Jehovah, though he had heard the names of more than 100 Egyptian gods. There were so many Egyptian gods you could hardly count them. They often had the body of a human and the head of either a human or some kind of creature.

 Each of the gods had their own appearance and most of them imitated some aspect of creation. There was a lion, a jackal, a hawk, a crocodile, a cat, a frog, even flies.

 There was Osiris, Isis, Set, Horus, Ra, Thoth, Anubis, Hathor, and on and on. The Egyptians believed that they themselves were the descendants of gods and superior to all other races on earth.

 From the perspective of Pharaoh, the God of Israel could not have been very powerful if the people of Israel were slaves to the superior Egyptians. Therefore, Pharaoh’s response was reasonable, “Who is Jehovah that I should obey his voice? I do not know this God Jehovah. And besides, I will not let Israel go.”

A. Creation itself reveals the glory of God

 The heavens and the earth that God created declare the glory of God.
