Moses Story for Kids

Moses Story for Kids

Moses was chosen by God to lead God's chosen people out of slavery in Egypt. When Moses was a baby, his mother hid him because the Pharaoh in Egypt ordered that all the Hebrew baby boys were to be killed. He did that because he was afraid that the Hebrews would grow to become more and mightier than the Egyptians and take over Egypt. When Moses got too big to hide anymore, his mother put him in a basket and told his sister to float the basket in the Nile River. Pharaoh's daughter found the baby Moses, and raised him as her own son. When Moses grew older, he left Egypt, but God sent him back to help save His people. Moses led the Hebrews through the Red Sea when God parted the waters. He brought the Ten Commandments of God to the people when God gave them to him on Mount Sinai. Moses led the Hebrews through the wilderness for forty years, to the land that God promised to His people.
