If we cry unto God like the Israelite did, He will answer us. He is indeed a prayer answering God and has compassion for his children; like a mother has for her children. I love God.
In every situation, God prepares us for the task ahead. Moses was not the only child born at the time. Because he (God) knew that Moses was the right person for the fight, he prepared him just like Samson from the womb. God will never allow his children to gnash their teeth in vain, he must make a way for escape and make a way where there is none.
Moses was 40yrs. old at this time, and he had been told that he was an Israelite, but Moses is trying to deliver Israel in his own might. We always fail when we try to do the Lord's work in our own ability. So God has to send him to train him 40yrs. on the back side of the desert to prepare him for his manifest destiny. After 80yrs of training God uses Moses to deliver his people. Moses rejected the passing pleasures of sin for a season and suffered affliction with the people of God for he had esteem of the reward. Humble thyself under the mighty hand of God, and in due season he will exalt the.
The indicated carefulness of Moses prior to the slaying, to be sure no man saw him, and the reference to his burying the victim; leaves little room forany conclusion but murder.
However, only God truly knows when our motives coincide with his plans...He only can judge, and He only can forgive!

I believe GOD knows the begining to the end and HE had Moses in his hands from conception. It was GOD who moved on Moses mother to place him in the river for the Pharoahs' daughter to find him. We are fre moral agents to chose the road we would take...GOD knew the faith and loyality of Moses mother and sister-and HE knew they would follow HIS leading.
12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that [there was] no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
It is sad that people search scriptures for justification of their acts. I once crossed paths with someone trying to justify MURDER and SIN. They used this passage of MOSES.
I explained the following passage: JOEL: 13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he [is] gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.
GOD knows our hearts. GOD knew MOSES heart. HE also knows everyone's heart.
Finding scriptures to justify SIN / MURDER is truly of the DEVIL. NO MAN HAS THE MIND OF CHRIST - Therefore, there is no justification of MURDER / SIN.
It is a mystery where the KJV and YLT get the translation Raguel, as they translate the name Reuel in other places (i.e. Exodus 2:18). I highly doubt the KJV and YLT both followed the Vulgate or LXX here.
