*Exodus 3:21
"21 "And I will make the Egyptians favorably disposed toward this people, so that when you leave you will not go empty-handed."Empty handed: bringing nothing
*Exodus 11;2
"2 Tell the people that men and women alike are to ask their neighbors for articles of silver and gold."Borrow: bring back wages
"It's payback time."
"God could never forget the injustices done by the Egyptians to the Israelites."
Why?
1. God is just that he wants us to receive what is due to us.For masters:
*Leviticus 19:13
"13 " 'Do not defraud your neighbor or rob him. " 'Do not hold back the wages of a hired man overnight.*Do not withhold the wages of our workers/laborers.
*Colossians 4:1
"1 Masters, provide your slaves with what is right and fair, because you know that you also have a Master in heaven.*Pay them what is due to them.
*James 5:4
"4 Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty*Colossians 3:22-23
"22 Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to win their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord.
23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men,"God is a good and just 'employer'."
*Exodus 11:3
"3 (The LORD made the Egyptians favorably disposed toward the people, and Moses himself was highly regarded in Egypt by Pharaoh's officials and by the people.)*Exodus 12:35-36
"35 The Israelites did as Moses instructed and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold and for clothing.
36 The LORD had made the Egyptians favorably disposed toward the people, and they gave them what they asked for; so they plundered the Egyptians.2. God can move and touch the heart of other people to bless His people.
*Exodus 12:40-41
"40 Now the length of time the Israelite people lived in Egypt was 430 years.
41 At the end of the 430 years, to the very day, all the LORD's divisions left Egypt.*Genesis 15:30
"14 But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will come out with great possessions.Promised Fulfilled: 1876-1446 BC

Moses & Israelites left Egypt.3. God's Promises are not bounded by time.
