God's Purpose Accomplished by Unexpected Agencies
Exodus 2:5-6
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side…


The wheels in a clock or a watch move contrary one to another, some one way, some another, yet all serve the intent of the workman, to show the time, or to make the clock to strike. So in the world, the providence of God may seem to run cross to His promises. One man takes this way, another runs that way; good men go one way, wicked men another; yet all in conclusion accomplish the will and centre in the purpose of God, the great Creator of all things.
