Reading: Acts 25 and Exodus 2-3
Scripture: Exodus 2:12, He looked this way and that, and
seeing no one, he struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
Observation: There are things I have failed at, keeping
myself pure for my wife, and walking away from God for a time. Because I have
fallen down in things like these I feel like “How can God use me?” I struggle
with the idea that even though my failures God can use me.
Application: This is a great reminder that God can use
anyone. God used a Murderer to lead his people to freedom, and a King who was
described as a man after God’s own heart was an adulterer. Some times I just
need to remember that just because I have failed in the past or have found
walking away God can still use me and has redeemed my life. We are of God.
Prayer: Lord, thank you for your forgiveness and the redemption
of our lives. Knowing that you can use even murderers to fulfill your will and
plans give hope to use who have failed. I ask you to help me to keep my eyes on
you and stop looking behind myself and asking questions like can you really use
me. Help us to grow and honor you in all that we do.
