Exodus 6:1-13

"Therefore, say to the people of Israel: ‘I am the LORD. I will free you from your oppression and will rescue you from your slavery in Egypt. I will redeem you with a powerful arm and great acts of judgment. I will claim you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God who has freed you from your oppression in Egypt. I will bring you into the land I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as your very own possession. I am the LORD!’” v6-8
The Israelites where so mad and worked that they refused to listen to Moses when he came to declare Gods message. It is easy to get caught up in the things going on around us and miss the message God is trying to give us. Or better yet, refuse to listen. How receptive am I to the things of God. Is my life so loud that I don't hear him, or when I do, do I listen intently or refuse to believe what He is saying?
