6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews’ children.
7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child’s mother.

MFM Daily Devotional 24 March 2024 MESSAGE
Miriam was a loving and compassionate sibling. She stood up for her weak and helpless brother. She didn’t display the nonchalant attitude that most Christians display in our days. She strengthened the feeble knees. She became a voice for her helpless brother in the presence of Pharaoh’s daughter. She forbade it that her brother would be sacrificed to an Egyptian river god. As young as she was, she insisted that the will of God be done and it was done. She fought for her brother and she won.
Beloved, are you a loving sibling like Miriam? When I say sibling, I mean both your biological and spiritual siblings (your fellow Christians and those of the household of faith). Have you ever become a voice of rescue for anyone in your life? Who in this life have you stood for? When a brother or sister is in a mess, what do you do about it? Is it not that you go about mocking and taunting him or her? Even the so-called prayer meetings that some people call to pray for them usually end as a gossip-meeting. These days, we are quick to rubbish ourselves on the social media and the unbelieving world is watching and laughing the children of Abraham to scorn.
READ MFM Daily Devotional 23 March 2024 – Lessons From The Life Of Miriam (I)
In the early church, believers carried each other’s burdens on their heads; they covered each other’s nakedness (Acts 2:44-45, 4:35). In those days, it was hard to see Christians commit suicide but these days, even some pastors do. Why? It is because no one was there to encourage them when they reached their wits’ end. No one was available to share and bear their burdens. These days, no one is standing up for anybody again; everyone is now on his or her own. This ought not to be so, beloved. Some of us are well to do but our biological parents and siblings have never tasted part of the wealth.
In the last two weeks, how many people have you checked on to see if they are truly fine? Today, make a call to someone; put a smile on someone’s face; send a thank you note to your boss, pastor and parents. You might, by so doing, be lifting a burden, or even saving a soul or an entire generation.
