Before Your Obedience is Rewarded, Your Faith Will Be Tested

After Moses and Aaron obey God, the faith of them and their people is tested by Pharaoh. Obeying God means facing your fears again and again. Satan will keep testing your faith with persecution. Your own people will push against your faithfulness. You have to trust you are doing it right because God says so. God increases your faith by proving Himself faithful through your testing. Like Jesus, the Christian's cross comes before his crown. Before your obedience is rewarded, your faith will be tested.
