Immerse: The Daily Bible Reading Experience - Day 104

In Day 104 of 'Immerse: The Daily Bible Reading Experience,' the focus is on the interactions between Moses, Pharaoh, and the Lord as narrated in the Book of Exodus. Moses protests to the Lord about the increased brutality of the Egyptians towards the Israelites. God reassures Moses of His promises, stating that He will free the Israelites from their oppression with powerful acts of judgment. Moses and Aaron deliver God’s commands to Pharaoh, who remains stubborn despite witnessing miraculous signs like Aaron's staff turning into a serpent and the Nile River turning into blood. God continues to harden Pharaoh's heart, showing His power through plagues, including a swarm of frogs. Despite initially agreeing to let the Israelites go, Pharaoh’s heart hardens again once relief comes, continuing the cycle of resistance. This episode highlights the persistent faith of Moses and Aaron amidst ongoing challenges.

QUICK START GUIDE
3 ways to get the most out of your experience

1. Use Immerse: Beginnings instead of your regular chapter and verse Bible. This special reader’s edition restores the Bible to its natural simplicity and beauty by removing chapter and verse numbers and other historical additions. Letters look like letters, songs look like songs, and the original literary structures are visible in each book.
2. Commit to making this a community experience. Immerse is designed for groups to encounter large portions of the Bible together
   for 8 weeks–more like a book club, less like a Bible study. By meeting every week in small groups and discussing what you read in open,
   honest conversations, you and your community can come together to be transformed through an authentic experience with the Scriptures.
3. Aim to understand the big story. Read through “The Stories and the Story” (p. 483) to see how the books of the Bible work together to tell God’s story of his creation’s restoration. As you read through Immerse: Beginnings, rather than ask, “How do I fit God into my busy life?” begin asking, “How can I join in God’s great plan by living out my part in his story?”
