Five Excuses Not to Serve God W/Answers from God

Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt. And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? 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. (Exodus 3:10-12 KJV)

Moses had excuses for not serving God at His calling unto him. Perhaps God is calling you to serve Him in some capacity and you have resisted. See how God dealt with and answered Moses over the next several entries in this blog.

The first of five excuses was "whom am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?"

Moses lacked in that he was not thinking of who it was that was talking to him and the power behind those words or calling. Moses was looking at himself, which is a tendancy we all tend to have. But it is not by power or by might on our part that wins the victory. It is God's calling and He will do it by His Spirit.

Be encouraged by God's answer to Moses, and some people miss this, "when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt you shall serve God on this mountain." what this speaks of here is an assured victory in the calling and service of God.

If God is calling you to a specific service, my only word for you is just do it. God is the same He changes not, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. He will be with you and do it!

Be blessed
