Sermon: 4/19/26- Monday's Devotional

When Paradigms Collide
Reading: Exodus 1:8-22

The Hebrew midwives faced an impossible choice: obey Pharaoh's murderous decree or honor God's value for life. Their decision reveals a foundational truth—when human authority contradicts God's Word, our allegiance must be clear. Today, we face similar collisions between cultural expectations and biblical truth. Social media, political affiliations, and popular opinion often function as our primary filters rather than Scripture. The midwives "feared God" more than Pharaoh, and this reverence shaped their courage. What paradigm currently shapes your understanding of reality? When the world's values clash with God's commands, will you have the courage to choose faithfully? God honors those who honor Him, even when the cost seems high.
