Events in Moses’ early adult life show that he has the makings of a great leader, but that isn’t enough. He’s been raised in privilege, and he has a passion for justice, but pride and self-sufficiency must be rooted out of him before he can be used by God.
We often make cost benefit calculations about our obedience to God. We say things like, “I don’t think it’ll make that much difference anyway,” or “I did everything God wanted and it still didn’t work out.” This message looks at a person who was extraordinarily faithful and yet it didn’t seem to ‘work.’ It didn’t seem to change much. His life challenges us to reconsider why we do what we do.
Fog and uncertainty can bog us down and keep us from moving forward. But God is not finished with us. In today’s message we look at the help He gives to press on in the life He calls us to through the images of the athlete, the imitator and the citizen of heaven.
