Exodus 3:7 Then the LORD said, "I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters. I know their sufferings, 8and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians....So many of us know the story of Moses and Pharoah, where GOD let's Moses know that HE is aware of the suffering of HIS people, and desires that Moses would go and instruct Pharoah to let HIS people go. For several chapters a few things are apparent:
1. GOD is constantly pursuing us; His people!
2. While GOD could easily bat an eye, or wave a finger and immediately change a situation HE
delights in using His own people to bring forth His ultimate will.
3. When GOD calls us to a task, HE NEVER insults us by giving us an easy task.
Moses wasn't and hadn't been a public speaker or a deliverer but GOD called Him, and Moses learned to lean on and stay before GOD. Egypt is more than a place on a map, it's a mindset as well. We, many of us carry a slave mentality as it relates to being in financial bondage, abusive relationships, pesimism, need I go on.....and without really accepting the word of GOD as your final authority, and really listening to GOD given church leaders you may get left in EGYPT, or even worse dying in the wilderness due to your attitude regarding where GOD has brought you from.
TODAY: Check your attitude, see if it's one that HONORS GOD. What is your Egypt, what are you in bondaged to...that you desire deliverance from? Lastly, LOVE GOD enough to trust His instructions, and begin to really LOVE PEOPLE, and believe me....you will begin to experience TRUE DELIVERANCE and FREEDOM in your everyday living. LGLP
