Moses Prepares to Go to Pharaoh

27The Lord said to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness to meet Moses.” So he met Moses at the mountain of God and kissed him. 28Then Moses told Aaron everything the Lord had sent him to say, and also about all the signs he had commanded him to perform.
29Moses and Aaron brought together all the elders of the Israelites, 30and Aaron told them everything the Lord had said to Moses. He also performed the signs before the people, 31and they believed. And when they heard that the Lord was concerned about them and had seen their misery, they bowed down and worshiped. (Exodus 4:27-31)

Thoughts: Moses got his father-in-law's permission to go back to his people.  Moses got his wife's permission- and showed it by her willingness to circumcise their son.  Moses then met his brother Aaron who would help him speak to Pharaoh.  Then he met the elders and got their backing.  You see that Moses will go through the due process.  The momentum is building and will batter down the gates of Pharaoh's hardened heart.  The Lord is at work. 
    Sometimes to do God's work we have to jump through the hoops and visit the right people. For something important, we need to do things the right way. 

Prayer: Lord, help me to know how to do your will in the best way possible.  Help me to get going and do your work.
