LEAVE EGYPT

Exodus wow what a great study going on right now with First5.  If you haven’t downloaded the app do it today.  The study just began this week and today was the first weekend wrap-up video.  You can catch up by watching or you can go back through the archives. 

Exodus and First5 led me to this writing.

Are you struggling with a task that God has placed on your heart?  Do you feel you aren’t equipped to do the job He has given you? 

You question the same question that Moses did, who am I to do a great work?

When God has given you a task do not question.  God is God; the same God He was for Abraham, Jacob and Moses.  He is in control, He is wise and He is on time.  His plan is much better than our plan. 

God has equipped us with what we need and who we need to perform our jobs on earth.  We may feel ordinary, but God has a job for us that is extraordinary. 

While doing a task for the Lord we will encounter the same things Moses did.  We will be in the wilderness, be in Egypt and have a Pharaoh.  There will be struggles in our wilderness.  Our pharaoh will continually tell us we can’t and our Egypt will put up barriers trying to keep us held captive. Through all of this our Lord will rescue us, lead us and guide us.  He will speak to us through our burning bush giving us His wisdom.  Listen to Him. 

Feed yourself with the words of Exodus and leave Egypt and Pharaoh in your dust.  Put on your full armor of God and keep walking the journey in the wilderness with God.
