TOPIC: SECRETS TO SUCCEED IN LIFE: Assurance Of His Presence (5)
ONE YEAR BIBLE READING
Exodus 18 - 19
Matthew 21: 1 - 32
MEMORY VERSE:
Romans 8:30.
"30. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified."
BIBLE READING:
Exodus 3:12.
"12. And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
Thinking Point:
The call of God upon us is an assurance that He will be with us all the way. Be encouraged to do what He says.
Let me share a story to portray my topic today. There was a man of God who was presenting his 'wife to be' to God in his prayers. He was asking God if this woman is God's will for him, and God responded by saying, "She will give birth to two children and these are their names, so so so and so so so." You may feel like, “what does that mean?” That's what God does, when we are confused about responding to His call, He shows us what's ahead of us in response. He may not say "Yes, I am calling you, you must go,." He will just encourage us by showing us what's ahead if we yield to his call. Many times when we feel like “I'm not sure”, He comes around to give you proofs that you are called, that was what God did to Moses in his confused stage.
Remember, Moses was complaining, “why me of all people?” I expected God to say, "because you know the in and out of the palace”. “You are linked to the princess”. You understand their language as well, so you are the best, experienced person to go on this mission" but No, God told him what will happen in the future if he embarked on this mission. "... When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain." Confused by the presence but He is speaking of the future, what a determined God. When you are confused by that calling over your life, that's when He makes it scary again, telling you what you never thought you could do. In Judges 6, the story of Gideon was a clear example. The angel visited him and called him names he never thought could be ascribed to him.
Judges 6:12-14.
"12. And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him, The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valour."
"13. And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if the LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites."
"14. And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee?"
Before God calls we are empowered and endowed to do what He's calling us to do. Brethren, it's time to buckle up to what you are called to do. You have the power right inside of you to go on that mission. Be assured that He is with you on that journey. Pick up your mat and walk as Jesus said.
