Practical Bible Principles for Life
Who Will Go Down
To Egypt?
Read - Exodus 5-7
By J. L. Caldwell, Pastor
New Jerusalem
Baptist Cathedral
An uninformed people will
always lend to lepd themselves
to slavery of some kind. Be it
intellectual, social, or behavioral.
John, the Revelator. was isolated
and imprisoned for 18 months on
the Isle of Patmos, but be refused
to allow his mind to be enslaved,
his mind remained free, thus he
was able to pin God's vision in
the Book of Revelation for all to
gain a perspective on the coming
future.
The descendants of Abraham
(Hebrews) were in the slave
pits of Egypt for more than 400
years: their bodies were worn
and tied from making hand
made bricks, their travel was
limited, their daily routine was
stressful, and their worship
opportunities were nonexistent.
Simply pul. the Hebrew people
were enslaved in just about all
aspects of their lives. Their
bodies were physically owned
by the Pharaoh, but their minds
remained free enough to reason
and cry out to the I ord for relief
from slavery (Exodus 3:7-8).
Imprisonment truly lakes its toll,
in full measure, when the body
and mind becomes enslaved lo
its master. The master may be
a tyrant, but not limited lo hale,
anger, envy, ignorance, lies,
drugs alcohol, and uncontrolled
passion.,
As long as the mind is not
enslaved along with the body and
one slill has freedom lo think on
his her ow n. then that person is
not truly imprisoned or enslaved,
t he man who has been in prison
for many years and attempts
to escape after ten or so years
behind steel bars is not totally
enslaved (i.e. nun ie-" Twelve
Years A Slave") loday's prison,
just like the devil, is designed
to totally enslave a person. We
need lo put on the whole armor
of (iod as we care not lo be
enslaved (Ephesus 6:11-13).
fhe Black man is no
longer living on the plantation
because ofthe long fought battles
and victories for civil rights by
those who have gone on before
and refuse lo allow anybody or
anything lo enslave their minds.
Regardless ol the circumstances,
the mind always strives to be free
- free from oppression, loday
there is a strong mind set tending
to put the Black man back on
the plantation, so lo speak. If
not back on the plantation then,
behind the "new-day plantation”
-which is the prison, dropping
out of school, or leaving the
church. However, a strange
thing is happening today among
our Black people, especially
among our young black men
women. Ihey arc enslaving
and imprisoning themselves
by returning, lo the "old
camp ground" - the master's
plantation, that is whatever they
have allow cd lo enslav e them, be
it crime, but not limited lo no-
educalional. unacceptable social
behavior, ignorance of Gods
love for them.
It is for the above
reasons that Jesus came down
from heaven lo set to captives
free and to set free
who have been bruised
enslavement (Luke 14:18-
Today’s Egypt i$
place of enslavement. Wli;
and wherever it is the
the need for somebody i
down ‘and deliver the me
of freedom and hope to
who have allowed them!
to be imprisoned for wh;
reason(s). This messaged
first must go into our home
then spread abroad. Who
go? Who will go down to
brother's house, your si
house, y our friend's housed
will go down and far away
your home and talk to as
people about the forgh
God offers, hope in the
power in the Blood. Grat
Mercy being abundantly p
out on life's hurts and ensl
behavior. Who will go,
among the hopeless and !«
demand, in the name oil
that the evil forces of lit
our brothers and sister go,
w ill go down to Egy pt lain
tell "the enslavement" Pha
wherever and whatever!
" Io let your people go!"
Speak no 1110:1
freedom for others, or yo
unless you are willing to
up" the roof in order to
a "needy, enslaved soul"
before Christ for 11
(Mark2:3-5). Who will go
lo Egy pt?
