God did it!

One of the latest cliches you hear around Christians today is "its a God thing".  Now that is a phrase that I cannot stand.  Of course it is a God thing but what does that really mean.  Moses doesn't use that phrase but rather he lets you know directly or indirectly that whatever happened God did it.  He didn't see God as a mischievous elf sneaking around doing things to delight His people but rather Moses saw God as sovereign and whither it was intended for good or not God was in control. 
Take for example his birth.  Satan tried to destroy Moses as a baby but not only was Moses saved from Pharaoh's schemes but he was raised in Pharaoh's court so that when he returned to free his people he knew how to behave in the court of the king.
