[Today: Exodus 3] Moses Meets God on the Mountain: In Exodus 3, Moses agrees to tend flocks for his father-in-law Jethro. On the backside of the desert, he sees the burning bush and encounters God in all His glory. The Father commissions Moses to return to Egypt and lead the people back to worship on this very mountain. We see then that the time Moses spent in the wilderness prepared him to lead the people of Israel through that same experience.
