(Of GOD's Heavenly Planned Workings)

STEP TWO

GROWTH & BUILDING OF HIS BODY OF CHOSEN PEOPLE

GOD does initiate the SECOND Heavenly Step of His Planned Workings for the growth and building of the small group of 'Chosen People' into an even more sizable and secure communal body of individuals!

GOD does take necessary action to cause His 'Chosen People' to become virtually enslaved within a slave-like bondage under another more powerful and secured community of people!

In doing this, GOD seeks to accomplish:
-1- To compound a much greater population growth of His initially created small (tribal) body of 'Chosen People'.
-2- To institute a much needed and more secure way to protect that 'Chosen People' from other larger surrounding communities, or forces! Thereby, building around that body of 'Chosen People' a more protective wall of security from the outside forces of destructive warfare, plundering, or any deep infiltration of influence from outside ungodly doctrine.
-3- To enable GOD to more readily employ a deeper Heavenly growth within a more protected and secure planetary conditions. Affording GOD an atmosphere where He can more ably direct His 'Chosen People' into becoming a Nation! A Nation that does become founded and indwelled within the true Personage of GOD, His Personal GODliness, and GOD's Heavenly desires, values, concepts and ideals within their own planetary mannerisms and attitudes!

The type of slavery-bondage which GOD does allow His 'Chosen People' to become subject to, is one that is not drastically oppressive and confining. It is one that does afford a deep degree of self-rule! Thereby allowing that 'Chosen People' enough freedom to combine GODly and nationalized ideals, or undertakings together within their maturing community! The early 'Chosen' Hebrews had a vast amount of freedom under their Egyptian enslavers!

GOD does bring this slavery-bondage about in a slow and peaceful way over a long period of time. Thereby allowing the Egyptian leadership to also be at ease with the ever growing numbers of Hebrews.
GOD does also see to it that the Egyptian rulers do also allow the Hebrews to govern themselves without much political, or social interference!

Though GOD's 'Chosen People' were growing in great numbers and prosperity under their captors, their personal ties with Heavenly matters were not yet firmly affixed enough upon GOD Personally and His Personal GODliness! Because of this fact, many of the early Hebrew children were seen to have become to greatly influenced and blinded by Satan! Many had begun to even look towards the acceptance of the Egyptian misconceptions of who, or what was truly GOD, and began to greatly neglect GOD! Many others would be found to forgo even paying any deep homage unto THE TRUE GOD OF THE WORLD, whom was and is the GOD of their forefathers! GOD knew earlier that this was likely to occur!

When GOD does feel that the time is right, He does then begin upon His Plan of not only altering their immediate prosperity, but most importantly their entire future!
GOD does then begin upon His Plan to bring His 'Chosen' Community of People more closely to His Personal Bosom of Knowledge and Acceptance of the Only Accurate and True Personal GOD and His Personal GODliness of the entire planet! The Only Accurate and True Personal GOD of the planet Who set and established the foundations of not only their own livelihoods, but also the existence of the entire Universe!

It is during this period that GOD does begin the final important task within His Ultimate Plan surrounding this SECOND Heavenly taken Step!
It is also a period of great hardships and demise of material wealth for GOD's 'Chosen People'! Most importantly, it was a period which does see them grow even greater in numbers (Exodus 1:12).
Because of their growing afflictions and bondage, those 'Chosen' children who had earlier looked favorably upon Satan's Egyptian blinding, do begin to see that blindness for what it really is, and begin to draw closer to the Light of the Only Actual and True GOD! The GOD of their forefathers, Whom is the Only and True Personal GOD of the entire world and Heavenly Universe! Most importantly for them, the Only and True Personal GOD who chose to create their existence as a most specially 'Chosen People' for Himself upon the planet!

GOD's beginning preparation and completion of this SECOND Step within His Heavenly Planned Workings upon this wayward planetary society is historically documented in GOD's infallible written Word (the Bible) in the book of Genesis chapters 37-50!
