When the Israelites were in Egypt, a new king who does not know Joseph came to power and realise that the israelites where out numbering them, so he oppressed them but they continued to increase, so he decided to kill the male newborn, he ordered the midwives to kill the children at birth but these mid wives(Shiprah and Puah) feared the lord so that they disobeyed the king and also defended them before the king. So God was kind to the midwives.(Exodus 1:8-21) God gave them families of their own.
We can shine our light where we work and do God's will as the midwives, we should be saving lives and not destroying lives. No matter the work or career we do, in a country were corruption and decadence is predominant, we must live for our God and do his will and not the will of men or evil rulers.
God is the rewarder and he sees, just as God blessed these midwives to give them their own families, God will bless us as we live to obey his will. May we fear the lord in all we do.
Well done Toyin! Ku ise Oluwa!
