Have you ever been called to a task that you are certain you cannot accomplish? Moses experienced that feeling and convinced God to have someone else be his spokesman (Aaron). Praise God for brothers and sisters who are obedient to God. They help us when we are unable to trust God’s ability for ourselves. Moses relied on Aaron and on his wife (to abate God’s anger at Moses’s disobedience). Together, as those who follow God and His Son, Jesus Christ the LORD, we are able to be part of God’s will on earth. It is no wonder the mystery of being one with the saints reveals such great riches, spoken of in Ephesians 1:18 “having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints”. Truly, in our flesh we are humbled before Him and certain that we are inadequate. In Christ, we are aware of His glorious inheritance, more valuable than money, fame or riches- a right standing with our righteous judge. Do you understand the love of the Father for you?- Teresa #awe #wonder #Mercyandgrace #truth #readCaseforMiraclesbyLeeStrobel
Exodus 4:10-14 (ESV)
10 But Moses said to the Lord, “Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue.” 11 Then the Lord said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? 12 Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.” 13 But he said, “Oh, my Lord, please send someone else.” 14 Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses and he said, “Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Behold, he is coming out to meet you, and when he sees you, he will be glad in his heart. 15 You shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth, and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth and will teach you both what to do. 16 He shall speak for you to the people, and he shall be your mouth, and you shall be as God to him. 17 And take in your hand this staff, with which you shall do the signs.”
