  Aaron
  
  Aaron was Moses’ brother. When God called Moses to lead the Hebrew people out of slavery in Egypt, Aaron became his "official spokesman." Aaron ended up becoming the first high priest of the Israelites, but the beginnings of his ministry were questionable. He succumbed to the demands of the Israelites to worship a golden calf. I know you're thinking, "A golden calf?" but it's true.

  Pharaoh (Exodus)
  
  The Pharaoh was the leader of Egypt, and Egypt was the greatest civilization in Moses’ lifetime. During his lifetime, the Pharaoh had enslaved the Israelites. Eventually, Moses was called to face the Pharaoh and demand that he "let his people go." The king of Egypt was so proud that he refused these demands. The Pharaoh went up against the living God.

Q & A
- How does Moses' life show us that God can use us?
  God can use you to help others. Moses had done wrong and was full of excuses. But God had prepared him for the task of leading the Israelites out of Egypt. As prince of Egypt, he learned leadership skills. When he fled to Midian, he spent years learning about the land. He eventually led the people of Israel through this land.
  
  God can also use you to help people. If there is something you need to do for God, however small, don’t make excuses. Instead, trust that God will help you accomplish the task. For example, if you feel God saying you should speak to a lonely person at school, don’t make the excuse that you are shy or that you don’t know that person well enough. God will be with you (Exodus 4:12).

- Why did God tell Moses and Aaron to work as a team?
  Many people like to be independent and to work alone. Group work often requires humility, patience, and tolerance. As part of a team, you learn to work with others (1 Corinthians 12:27). By sharing and working with each other, Moses and Aaron were able to accomplish more (Romans 12:4-5). Remember to make God your team leader.

- What can we learn from Pharaoh's stubbornness?
  God spoke to Pharaoh through Moses and Aaron, but Pharaoh refused to listen. This caused Pharaoh to suffer. The Israelites listened to God's promise to deliver them from Egypt (Exodus 6:6-8), and He did. God gave the Israelites both a warning and a promise: “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you” (Exodus 15:26).
  
  You can trust God to do what He says. You can also believe in all His promises and warnings in the Bible. When God speaks, listen carefully.

- What do God's instructions to the Israelites teach us?
  God’s instructions teach us to do what is right. In the Bible, God has given us warnings and instructions for right living (2 Timothy 3:16). For example, God warns us against worshiping idols (Exodus 20:3-5), gossiping (Proverbs 20:19), using bad language (Ephesians 4:29), and telling lies (Proverbs 6:16-19). He instructs us to love Him wholeheartedly (Matthew 22:37), to be kind and forgiving to others (Ephesians 4:32), and to love our neighbor as ourselves (Matthew 22:38). Following God’s instructions will also display our love for Him (John 14:23). Most importantly, God promises to help you follow Him. God’s Holy Spirit lives in you and can help you each day (John 14:16, Ezekiel 36:26-27, Philippians 2:13).

- How do we handle seemingly impossible situations like Moses at the Red Sea?
  Trust God even when things seem impossible. The Israelites were in what seemed to be an impossible situation. They were caught between the Red Sea and the Egyptian soldiers! However, God is the God of the impossible. He rescues His people (Exodus 15:2). He also wants you to have faith instead of fear. Trust God to help you in every situation, no matter how difficult or impossible things look.
