Come, Follow Me Moms Exodus 1–6 “I Have Remembered My Covenant” Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms, where we take the scriptures each week and break them down into the meat and potatoes so you can understand them, feel the Spirit, and apply them to real mom life. This week we are in Exodus 1–6, and I need you to hear this right from the start: 💗 God does not forget His people. Because if we’re being real… There are seasons where it feels like He has. When life is heavy When prayers feel unanswered When things actually get harder, not easier This week’s story is for you if you’ve ever felt that way. 📖 The Story (Meat and Potatoes) Let’s break it down simply. The Israelites are multiplying in Egypt. A new Pharaoh comes who does not know Joseph. He becomes afraid and puts them into bondage and slavery. He even orders that baby boys be killed. But God starts working… and He works through women. The midwives, Shiphrah and Puah, fear God more than man. Moses’s mom hides him. His sister stays close and watches over him. Pharaoh’s daughter shows compassion and raises him. Then Moses grows up, flees Egypt, and has an experience with God at the burning bush. God calls Moses to deliver Israel. And Moses responds in a way that probably feels familiar: “Who am I?” “I’m not good enough.” “I can’t do this.” And yet… he goes. Moses obeys. He goes to Pharaoh. And things actually get worse. The people are upset. Moses feels discouraged. And then God says: “I have remembered my covenant.” (Exodus 6:5) The Purpose This is not just a story. It is a pattern. Bondage Crying out God calls Resistance Deliverance And here is the truth: God is working even when you cannot see it yet. The Women Don’t skip this part. This is powerful. God did not just use Moses. He used women in quiet, brave, everyday ways. Midwives who chose God over fear A mother who trusted God with her baby A sister who stayed close and watched A woman who showed compassion and made a difference You do not have to be the main character to be part of God’s plan. You are shaping your home. You are raising leaders. You are part of something bigger than you can see. 🤍 Motherhood Connection This whole story is motherhood. Protecting your children Trusting God when things feel unsafe Doing small things that feel unseen One line that stood out so strong: “The same place that saved Joseph’s family… became the place of their affliction.” Sometimes the place that once felt like a blessing now feels heavy. And you find yourself asking: God… why am I here? 🙏 How God Shows Up God shows up in Exodus long before the big miracles. Through people Through small acts Through timing Through protection we don’t even recognize He was working before Moses ever saw the burning bush. And He is working in your life right now, even if nothing looks different yet. 📖 Powerhouse Verses Exodus 1:17 The midwives feared God This is reverence, trust, choosing God over the world Exodus 2:24 God remembered His covenant He did not forget. He never forgets Exodus 3:11 Who am I Moses doubted himself just like we do Exodus 3:12 Certainly I will be with thee That is the answer. Not that you are enough, but that God is with you Exodus 4:10–12 God does not remove weakness. He works through it Exodus 5 Sometimes obedience makes things harder before they get better Exodus 6:6–7 I will redeem you God delivers in His timing 🔥 The Refining In affliction, they grew. Growth does not happen in comfort. It happens in the hard seasons. God was not punishing Israel. He was preparing them. And He is doing the same for us. 💬 Personal Stories I shared how this podcast took me five years to start because I felt unqualified. God was patient with me. Moses did not feel ready either. And I love this real-life example from a friend: She shared that being willing to get pregnant again has been a huge act of faith. It has been scary, unknown, and she does not even have the ending yet. And that is faith. Faith is not know

Isaiah teaches us something every overwhelmed, exhausted, worried mama needs to hear: You were never meant to carry everything alone. Isaiah prophesied of Jesus Christ as “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” He didn't just come to save us from our sins—He came to bear our griefs and carry our sorrows. He understands the worry, loneliness, exhaustion, heartbreak, mom guilt, and seasons when life looks completely different than we thought it would.

This week in Isaiah, we see warnings about pride, worldliness, and turning away from God—but we also see an incredible message of hope, healing, and restoration through Jesus Christ. Isaiah describes broken walls, barren ground, heavy burdens, wandering people, and things that seem beyond repair. But that isn’t where the story ends. He also describes the wilderness blooming, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, sorrow disappearing, and God’s people being restored.
