Reading: Acts 26, and Exodus 4-5
Scripture: Exodus 4:10, 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.”
Observation: When God calls you what excuses have you used?
I know that I have probably used every excuse in the book, I’m busy, I can’t
speak in front of people, or I don’t know enough. Many people believe because
of this passage that Moses may have had a stutter or some other speech
impediment even though is sounded that God was going to heal that if he would
have just said ok lets go and not made excuses for himself. In stead God goes
ok fine you will tell your brother everything and he will be your mouthpiece as
you are mine.
Application: When God has a plan he will get it done even if
we are being silly and stupid about it. God will ether use us or go around us.
We need to choose if we are going to be apart of his plan or a hindrance. I
hope and pray that we all find that place in God’s plan and are willing to step
out despite our downfalls.
Prayer: Lord, you are the great orchestrator, you work all
things for our good even when we make excuses. I thank you for the blessings
that you have poured out on us and I long to serve you more. Lord, I ask you to
help us to stop looking at our shortcomings and know that when you call us to a
purpose that you will give us the strength to overcome any obstacles that me
come up. Help us to keep the right mindset of though you we can do anything.
