This week we will be looking at Moses on Wednesday night. I will not give away all that we will be talking about cuz you needs to be here on Wednesday night… J
Moses was a very interesting person. To be saved from sure death he was put in a basket and set free to float on the Nile River. This would seem that he was put into a very dangerous situation that could claim his life to save his life. Sound ridiculous? Well to any normal person it would, but to a devoted mother that had the faith in God that could move mountains it wasn’t. Exodus 2:1-10
Moses grew up in Pharaoh’s
house. He was to become a prince and rule over Egypt, but when he found out his
roots, the time was right for God to make His move.
As we live our lives we can
find ourselves in a lot of precarious situations. Sometimes we may be in a life
threatening situation. Some of us may live a normal life with nothing ever bad
really happening. The most important thing in our lives is what we do with them
when God calls.
In Exodus chapter 3 we find
Moses in Median tending sheep when God calls him. This was after he almost
perished in the dessert. It was not all
easy getting where he was at this point. It was hard work and he needed to be
broken down from his lofty stature; to be humbled to the point that God could
use him in a very mighty way.
What does it take for us to
come to the point that we will humbly serve God. You see, it goes beyond coming
to church and attending Sunday school. Even beyond extra Bible studies. It
starts with our bending of knee to humble ourselves before Him. Letting Him do
His will and letting God shape us and mold us no matter how much it hurts.
Moses, I am sure, was very nervous. He didn’t speak well. “Lord you have the
wrong person” you might say, or “I am no good at teaching!” In Exodus 3:12 it says “I will surely be with you…” That
was God’s promise to Moses and us.
