Praying Exodus

Praying Exodus invites readers into the drama of liberation, not as distant history, but as a living journey of the Spirit. Part of The Living Word Series, this devotional guides readers through every chapter of Exodus, offering prayers that move from groaning to glory, from bondage to belonging, and from wilderness fear to covenant trust. Each prayer wrestles honestly with oppression, resilience, idolatry, justice, and divine presence, helping readers walk the long road from Egypt's chains to the wide-open spaces of freedom. In these pages, the burning bush still blazes, seas still part, manna still falls, and God still chooses to dwell among wandering people.

Written for personal devotion or communal worship, Praying Exodus opens a path of prayer shaped by Scripture's rhythm: invocation, confession, lament, hope, petition, commitment, eschatological longing, and praise. Through this sacred pattern, readers learn again that deliverance is never only an event but a formation. And at every step, they discover the God who hears, who leads, and who brings us home.
