And Moses said unto the Lord, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. And the Lord said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the Lord? Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say. (Exodus 4:10-12 KJV)
Once more as Moses makes an excuse and hesitates, God gives yet another revelation of Himself to Moses.
When Moses made the excuse God asked him a question and in the question is the revelation of who God is and His abilities. "Who made man's mouth" etc. -- If God who is the creator of man asks you to speak for Him, like Moses we must learn the same lesson. We must come to the understanding the it is not our abilities that God is looking for. It doesn't depend on our eloquence or ability to think of something to say. It depends on the one who made man's mouth.
He is looking for our availability and obedience.
Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say. (Exodus 4:12 KJV)
Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. (1 Thessalonians 5:24 KJV)
What is it that God is asking you to do? What are you hesitating for and How is God revealing Himself to you as you hesitate?
God bless
