Exodus 3: 5-20

 

Who was the stuttering man that saved 600,000 men, women and children from slavery? Moses.

 

1. UNIQUENESS: He was born a Hebrew slave.  His mom didn’t want him to die so she wrapped him up and sent him down the river. Pharaoh’s daughter found him in the river and took him in.  He was raised up as royalty.  Years later he saw a Hebrew slave being beaten and something stirred up in him so he killed the guard then he fled into the dessert.

 

YOUR STORY MAKES YOU WHO YOU ARE.  IT DOESN’T MATTER THE UPS AND DOWNS ALL OF IT CAN AND WILL BE USED FOR YOUR PURPOSE.

 

1. YOU WILL EXERIENCE THE STIR: There always comes a point when you feel the stirring.  It’s forcing you to make a choice
2. Moses answered it but the he fled out of fear. For 40 years he hid in the desert.  He lived a quiet life, married, as a shepherd.

 

1.   YOU WILL EXPERIENCE THE CALL: He was minding his business and God spoke to Him from a burning bush.  Told him everything he needed he already had in his hands and was already fully qualified for saving the slaves.
2. Yours may not come to you in the form of a burning bush but there is a call over your life. 

 

2. QUALIFIED: Let’s talk about what he didn’t have?  As a peasant, shepherd, old man, with a speech impediment, lack of training, no money, no team, no connections. He was considered a killer, liar, slave.
3. HE TRUSTED GOD: God told him what to do and he did it
4. God gave Him everything he needed: Staff
5. God told Him everything to say: 10 plagues
6. God never left him
7.       Pharaoh let everyone go!
8. Even if I was Moses today and literally freed you right here and pushed you into your purpose, unlocked your destiny. Placed the calling inside of you. Ignited the stirring—only a few of your would say YES.

 

Moses led 600,000 men, women and children out of slavery without sneaking out in the middle of the night.  They were released after hundreds of years in captivity.  After a while of walking and hiking they started to get mad a Moses.  They started to want to go back.

 

MANY OF US HAVE FELT THE STIRRING.  WE’VE HEARD THE CALL BUT WE WILL NOT MOVE BECAUSE WE RATHER STAY IN OUR OWN COMFORT.

 

Your burning bush moment will find you.  Stay committed to a season of YES. Trust God and walk in faith.
