“The midwives said to Pharaoh, ‘The Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife can get to them.’”
Exodus 1:19
devotion
The Hebrew midwives feared God more than they feared Pharaoh, showing incredible courage to do what was right despite the king's orders. Their story is a powerful reminder that God honors those who live out righteousness even when faced with overwhelming pressure. They risked their lives to preserve life, and in doing so, demonstrated what it means to trust in God’s way, regardless of the earthly consequences. Our commitment to God's righteousness can be a light to the world, especially in dark times.
What is one area in your life where you are being called to stand up for righteousness, even if it may come at a cost?
