God had a perfect plan for Mose’s life, but as a baby, Moses might not have recognized it. For all, he knew he was an Israelite boy who was the outcast of his Egyptian family. Not only that, Moses was raised in Pharaoh’s house, only to be chased out by the only father figure he knew – the Pharaoh himself.
Moses ended up marrying and settling down. His new job was to take care of the flocks his father-in-law owned. It was here in the middle of an ordinary moment that God supernaturally showed up and changed Mose’s life forever.
God himself had chosen to use Moses in an extraordinary way, but at the time, Moses had no idea. Moses never had a plan to lead a whole nation to freedom from slavery, but God did!
Today you might be feeling insignificant, asking yourself, “does my life REALLY matter?”
“Has God forgotten about me?”
Things might be extremely difficult for you today like they once were for Moses. Even worse, you also might be feeling rejected by your own family. But let me remind you of this:
At just the right moment, THERE in your ordinary life, God can show up and change everything as He did for Moses with the burning bush! With God…every moment is pregnant with promise.
Moses had no idea of a ‘promised land;” all he knew was “pasture land.” But I know that the same God I serve took Moses from pasture to promise, and He will also demonstrate His faithfulness in your life if you’ll remain in faith!
Exodus 3:2a
“There, the angel of the Lord appeared to him (Moses) in a blazing fire from the middle of a bush.”
Be encouraged today because God is with you.
