INTRODUCTION: He’s bringing you out! We serve a God that picks us up when we are down and brings us out when we are in. If you’re in trouble, He’s bringing you out! If you’re in a depression, He’s bringing you out! If you’re in despair, He’s bringing you out! If you’re in sin, He’s bringing you out! No matter what situation you are facing, He’s bringing you out! Psalms 136:12 says that with a strong hand and an outstretched arm His mercy endures forever so even if you put yourself in the predicament you are in, His mercy will bring you out. He’s bringing you out! God wants to bring you out, so He can bring you up, so He can bring you over, so He can bring you into the 30, 60, 100 fold blessing. He wants to bring you out, so He can bring you up, so He can bring you over, so He can bring you into His good, acceptable, and perfect will. He wants to bring you out, so He can bring you up, so He can bring you over, so He can bring you into the good, the better, and the very best. He wants to bring you out. Some of us have been in sickness too long. He wants to bring you out! Some of us have been in debt too long. He wants to bring you out! Some of us have been in sin too long. He wants to bring you out! We need to get to know our Lord and Savior and what He wants. It’s alright to get intimate and personal with Him. It’s alright to get on a first name basis with the Lord. His name is Jesus. Mt 1:21 - Show Context

Jesus Christ came out of Nazareth to let you know He’s not afraid to come down to where you are to bring you up or to come into what you are in to bring you out. He’s bringing you out! He’s bringing you out! That’s what the book of Exodus is about. It’s to give us pictures of people and principles that set the precedence for Jesus bringing you out. I’m not going to read every verse in the book of Exodus, but I do want to talk to you about the subject matter of the chapters of the book of Exodus to let you know He’s bringing you out.
Chapter 1 – The Israelites’ Oppression – Their oppression led to depression. It started with Joseph the draught. Seven year of plenty followed by seven years of famine. The children of Israel moved to Egypt with their brother for a little while and a little while turned into 400 years. If you don’t move from good to better then a good thing can turn bad. If you don’t move from better to best then it can become the worst. Don’t let your last success be the obstacle to your next success. Let God bring you out!
Chapter 2 – Moses is born / Moses flees to Median – Moses was born into oppression but God brought him out. Then, after his first sign of confrontation when trying to make a change, he ran and hid. For 40 years, he tried to pretend the problem wasn’t’ there. For 40 years, he tried to pretend the problem wasn’t real. The reason he was born into the problem for God to bring him out was so he could help someone else out. Sometimes, God pleasing faith with put you right in the face of confrontation. Sometimes, your faith won’t get you out of trouble. Sometimes, your faith will get you into trouble for God to bring you out!
Chapter 3 – Moses and the Burning Bush – The bible says as Moses turned to see, that God spoke to him out of the burning bush. Heb 9:28 says Jesus shall appear unto them that look for Him. If you look for Him, He will show up. If you seek His face, you may not see His face but, you will hear His voice. He’ll speak to you out of a burning bush. He’ll speak to you out of that thing that has you bewildered and befuddled. He’ll speak to you out that situation that has you bamboozled. Why? So He can bring you out!
