Good to be back, and we are getting into some good stuff here today...
Moses tries to avoid God’s call on his life
“Excuses are tools of the incompetent, building monuments of nothingness.
People who use them seldom accomplish anything in life.” - Author Unknown
Moses had a few excuses… excu
Excuses are generally about self preservation and protection...
I can keep myself safe if I can just divert attention for a bit.
Get the spotlight off of me and on tosomeone else
Fear or being seen, of rejection, of being known, of not measuring up.
But fear and excuses also keep you form being the person God had in mind when he put the breath of life in you.
Moses has a series of excuses:
What if they do not listen or believe me?
two physical signs Staff/snake and Leperous hand
I am slow of speach.... “I don’t talk good”
“I will help you speak and teach you what to say!”
Send someone else (Vs.
God’s people exhisted to be a sign of God’s presences, Powers, and Grace.
Part of allowing them to be enslaved for 400 years was to show all othere religions and nations that he is.
Our freedom in a relationship with God is a testimony of his presence in our lives and the world needs to see it.
But we tend to make a lot of excuses when God asks us to believe him mre than our doubts and excuses.
that is not how I am
I am too ____________ for that
They (insert your favorite person or group) are too far gone to embrace this
Who other people see
What he thinks his ilimitations are
Who he sees
When we start telling God why somethign cannot happen, we need to slowdown and ask why:
Are my desires the same as God’s for me and others?
If not, guess who needs to change
Moses is telling God 3 lies:
Who other people see him as
What he thinks his ilimitations are
Who he sees
God already has an answer for all of Moses excuses ANd he has an answer for yours...
Have you been telling God Lies, excuses for why you cannot be someone he is going to use?
Let’s look at those lies agian today, adn let’s see what how we say these same things and Hod God dismantles our excuses with truth:
How other people see me
they are not going to believe me because...
I have already ruined my reputation because....
They will not trust me because....
they are narrow minded....
When you put your story in the hands of God, he rewites it to be perfect for his bigger story and the people he has you walking with
What you thinks your ilimitations are
Not enough money, time, friends, family
not seen as good, from the wrong place
not skilled, educated, experienced enough...
God does not call the equipped, he Equips the called.
Worried you have too many limitaitons?
Remember you serve an unlimmited God! Better than American express, membership in God’s family has real privledges.
Who you think you are
Not measure up
unworthy, broken, not ready
“Send anyone else!”
Perhaps you have said these same things, thinking you are not someone to be used by God.
You are too messed up, broken, ruined, addicted, shattered, angry, .... you fill in the blank....
God specializes in creating beautiful stories from broken lives.
Mosaics are made form shattered glass, brought together to reflect incredible light
If you are here today, and you have been telling God “Not me....
I am too broken, too little, too far gone, too damaged, too mistaken, too far off....” then you are believing Satan’s favorite lies...
And you are telling them to yourself
God told Moses He would be with him.
God is with you
He said he would be his answer.
God can be yours
God Chose Moses, and he Choses you!
To serve him in the church and in the community
Wait… I do not have any signs....
Fruit of the Spirit:
Beatitudes - Blessed Kingdom Attitudes of mearcy, meakness, Purity, Peace-making, mourning, a thirst for right relationships with God and Man, persecuted for pursuing righteousness....
Thes things do not happen on our own, they happen when God is with us… and then we begin to shine for him’
People believe you because the change they see in you
I cannot do it:
Send someone else:
