God; hence the lessons of this next
quarter concerning them will be
source of real Blessing to all who
need and seek God help.
The family of Jacob-or, as the
Bible calls them, the children of Is
rael-prospered in Egypt particular

who remembered him were alive.
But they soon learned one of LIES
bitter lessons, namely, that:
l. Prosperity Is Not Always a
Blessing Q:8-lD.
The Hebrews were peaceful,
laWabiding people. They were God s
chosen people, and as He blessed
them they prospered, and thus in
nocently they brought upon them
selves the hatred of the suspicious
Egyptians
prosperity Is never an unmlXed
blessing. We as a nation know that
to be true Not only does it lead to
a certain softening of the sineWs,
but all too often ii results in a weak
ening of the moral fiber, which
makes man easy prey TO lhe attack
oil lhe enemy OF our souls.

people suffer? Does he really care?
Yes, He does. They cried, and
God heard and remembered.
That's all we need to know The
groaning of His people had already
