What does Exodus say about thriving? God gives the children of Israel the ten guidelines that are the basis of a 10-10 life. Rather than just a list of thou shalt nots, these guidelines specify heavenly values and reflect the character of God. And they are as meaningful to us today as they were to those newly free Hebrews thousands of years ago. Scriptures referenced include Matthew 22:37-39; Genesis 12:2-3; Exodus 20:1-17; Exodus 7:16; Exodus 8:1, 20; Exodus 9:1; Exodus 10:3; Matthew 4:10; Exodus 31:13; Deuteronomy 5:16; Matthew 5:22; Proverbs 12:22; John 8:32; John 14:6; John 16:13; John 17:17; John 4:24; 1 Timothy 2:15; and Ephesians 4:15.
