Today’s devotional opens with a dramatic retelling of Jesus being transfigured and his encounter with Elijah and Moses. Then we explore the parallel experiences of Moses and Jesus and their roles in God's redemptive plan. Both Moses and Jesus had extraordinary births, faced rejection from their own people, served as mediators, performed remarkable miracles, and experienced moments of transfiguration.
