Exo 5:22 | MHM | STEP | v. 22-23 : Moses was very upset and went back to God to pray. He asked, “Lord, why have you brought this trouble on your people? Why did you send me?” Moses struggled to understand why God’s promise of deliverance seemed to make things worse for Israel. He wanted to know what he should do next, since his efforts only seemed to increase the people’s suffering. This shows that when we are confused or disappointed in our service to God, we should go to Him in prayer and seek His guidance ( v. 22, 23 ).
