Pick Up the Snake

And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The Lord hath not appeared unto thee. And the Lord said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod. (Exodus 4:1, 2 KJV)

ThemLord immediately asks Moses a question. "What is that in thine hand?" Moses said a rod.
One more hesitation or excuse and once again another revelation of God and His power. Faithful is He that calleth you and He will do it. The awesome God is behind His Word to perform it. It will not return void unto Him after He sends it out to accomplish His purpose.

Throw down the rod Moses. It turned into a snake. God told Moses then to pick up the snake by the tail. You never do that it will bite you if you do under normal circumstances but Moses did as instructed by God and it became a rod again. God also gave him several more signs to demonstrate that it would be revealed that Moses had indeed talked with the God they had cried out to and that He had heard them.

Signs and wonders WILL follow them that believe. God always backs up the truth when His vessel acts in obedience to Him to accomplish the desired end that the Lord has in mind. Remember He knows the end from the beginning.

Be blessed
