Hi Mike,

Thank you. Your letter really explained very well. I also read “A very present help” on the website and I read the following scripture shortly after emailing you:

Job 2:10  But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.

I immediately realized I was that foolish woman!! So I will repent of such foolish and uninformed thinking and talk!
I have been thinking about Moses being accepted in the house of Egypt as a baby despite the princess’ realization that he was the enemies’ child (but not forseeing how he would be used to free their slaves, she only saw the cute baby!), and the way the church embrace the idea of “baby Jesus” and even though she recognizes Him as the enemy of the flesh, she does not forsee what happens when Christ within a believer matures. I thought it is the same, God “hides” Christ in the church by introducing Him in the gospels as a “helpless baby”, and in believers as a “babe in Christ”, that is the only way He will be accepted. However in due time, like Moses had to flee a believer will also be forced to leave. Have been thinking about this, just thought to share with you even though you may have thought about this yourself.
Love from your sister in Christ,

Hi U____,
This is wonderful!

You are exactly right. Pharaoh’s daughter is a type of the the woman who brings forth the “manchild”. She nurtures Him as a “babe in Christ” totally unaware that one day He will be the instrument of her destruction.

Rev 12:5  And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
Rev 12:6  And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

Of course we are all “in the wilderness” before we are given to become the manchild, simply because “all things present and to come are ours”, and because “mankind shall live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God”, and because “there is one event to all men”.

Ecc 9:2  All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.
Mat 4:4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
1Co 3:21  Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;
1Co 3:22  Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;

If there is any Truth to any of those verses then we are all that woman as well as that ‘man of sin’.
God bless you as you continue to come to see that “all things are yours”.
Your brother in Christ,

Mike
