“Moses took the bones of Joseph with him” [Exodus 13:19(NIV)]

“Moses took the bones of Joseph with him”. Moses’ life, like any one of our lives, was making history.
He demonstrated his belief in the prophetic last words of Joseph years before. The bones of Joseph represented the hope of Israel.
Could the bones of a premier who died years before live again? The hope they expressed never died and as Moses packed them the hope became a reality. Many years later Ezekiel saw a vision of the valley of dead bones and that God could make them live again. Job said though worms destroyed his body, yet in his flesh would he see God.
We are part of a long line fulfilling the purpose of God: just be careful that the bones you carry are not merely relics. Take God’s promise: go forward in His Name.
