I actually wanted to start another
series today, but the Lord told me otherwise. He said I must do a
series on Moses. Now at the start of all these devotions I did some
writing on Moses, but now the Lord wants me to do a detail
walkthrough about his life. And I hope it will be a wonderful
blessing to you as it was to me!
Now Moses was an amazing person, a
wonderful leader and someone to look up to. Even today the Jews and
Christians view him as one of the greatest people who ever lived!
But having said that his life certainly didn't look as if it will
reach any area of greatness to start off with. He actually had a
very bad beginning in life.
He was just another ordinary Hebrew
boy, one of thousands. And not just that, he was the son of slaves
in Egypt. He was a nobody and was destined to fade in with all the
other desperate faces around him. The only future he possibly had
was to be a slave for Pharaoh, to work to build the empire of
Pharaoh, nothing else. His people had been doing that for 400
years. He had no prospects of achieving anything great in his life,
absolutely none. Except for one thing, he had the Creator of the
Universe at his side. But other than that, his future looked quite
bleak.
Do you maybe also look at your life
and wonder if anything good will ever come from it? Do you
sometimes feel part of the system, wondering whether you will ever
be able to make a difference? Do you sometimes feel trapped in a
structure, not knowing if things will ever change? Do you sometimes
feel like a nobody, on the road to nowhere?
Then remember to look at Moses. He
was also trapped in a seemingly impossible situation. He was
trapped in a system that looked like it will never change. But God
was on his side and He used Moses to break free and to do mighty
miracles. And He could use you too. He has the power to turn your
life around. He has the mighty strength to raise you up. He has the
authority over your life to help you achieve your purpose. All you
need to do is to let Him.
Invite Him in and allow Him to work
in your life. Give Him access, He would love to be part of your
life. Spend time with Him, you won't be sorry.
Lord, thank you that You have a
wonderful plan for our lives. Help us to walk in Your perfect plan.
You are more than welcome in our lives. Fill our beings with Your
Spirit. We know that true life is only found in You. Thank you Lord
Amen
