The Iowa Conference hosted the first planning session of The Daniel Project, designed to organize a group of spiritually motivated young people to reach their generation with the grace and truth of Jesus Christ.
The key verses are:
” … but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits [take action]. And those of the people who understand shall instruct many … And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them wait, until the time of the end …” Dan 11:32b–33, Dan 11:35
In the above passage, we see five great undertakings of faithful believers in the end times. To be accurate, this passage is speaking specifically of Jewish believers during the Tribulation Period. However, we have every reason to adapt it to these closing moments of the Church Age.

Life of Moses #9

By faith Moses kept the Passover (Heb 11:28). 9th plague was darkness with spiritual implications -- Egyptians were afraid to even move (Exo 10:20-29). Pharaoh hardened his own heart 7 times, then finally God hardened it (Exo 10:27). Pharaoh was deluded that he was still in control (Exo 10:28). Entire duration of the plagues was likely only about 30 days. The last plague is surpassed in the Tribulation period (Rev 16:2-14) -- the purpose is redemptive. At 40 Moses thought he was adequate, but at 80 he knew he wasn't (2Co 2:16) -- humility is God's measure, learned by knowing Him (Rom 12:3, Psa 18:34, Num 12:3). Moses is great in Egypt because he completely surrendered to God (Exo 11:1-3, Mat 5:5, Psa 37:11). The curse of sin envelops the world in darkness (Exo 11:4-10, 1Co 15:22, Col 1:15). First born is significant: rights were recognized in Egypt (Gen 43:33, Gen 49:3). The curse has a cure -- redemption illustrated by the Passover (Exo 12:1-25). 1500 years before the cross, the Jews applied the blood of a lamb to their door posts in the form of a cross by personal decision (Joh 6:54). Israel left in haste with booty (Exo 12:29-39). We have riches in Christ; one day we will possess them based on the decisions we make (Eph 1:8). Redemption: purchased from the slave market of sin -- then let go. All men have been bought, but not all enjoy the benefits -- personal faith is necessary.

After 40 years in the Egyptian palace then 40 years in the desert then 40 years leading Israel to their land Moses' life can actually teach us about living in the time we live.
