The bible recorded, <strong><em>\u201cNow it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>So, God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.<sup>\u00a0<\/sup>And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them.\u201d (Exodus 2:23-25)<\/em><\/strong> Deliverance from bondage of years came to end because the hand of God is not short but will be extended for man\u2019s deliverance and preservation.
