26 The righteous should choose his friends carefully, For the way of the wicked leads them astray.
My mother used to quote this too me as she was forcing me to get up and go to church however; that is not what the verse means (even though it worked for her, she is a force of nature). What it means is that there is a well worn path inside each child. The path is well worn because The Heavenly Father put it there. When we train up a child in the way that he should go, you are helping them find what God Has called them to. Helping people find out how their Heavenly Father built them and what He built then for is also part of Discipleship.

What Does DISC Mean?
The DISC model provides a way of understanding how people interact with the world around them. There is no one size fits all personality, and the DISC personality styles help to understand that there isn’t just one type of person out there – everyone has different ways in which they operate based on their preferences. The letters of DISC stand for:
D – Dominant, Driven, Decisive, Direct
People with a high “D” personality type are typically risk-takers and self-starters. They’re usually extraordinarily goal-oriented, competitive, and in positions of authority or doing things their own way and on the terms they want to set for themselves.

I – Influential, Inducing, Impulsive
People with a strong “I” personality style are the life of every party. They thrive on being around other people and love to have fun experiences, so you’ll never be bored spending time with one!

S – Stable, Sincere, Sympathetic
People with an “S” personality are often described as a rock because they have the ability to carry things on their shoulders and take care of themselves when others can’t. This is why these people seek out routine in life where there’s stability so that they don’t get too overwhelmed by all the changes around them.
Learn more about the “S” style
C – Conscientious, Creative, Compliant
People with a strong “C” personality are described as perfectionists, and place great value on being accurate. The “C” personality takes great pride in his or her work and tends to think logically when trying to solve problems.

3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
We will all give an account for the work we do
We will all give an account for the work we do
The New King James Version Chapter 3
13 each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
All of these things combine to make us who we are under The Lords design.

26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.
For the remainder of our time together let’s look at Moses for the making of a leader.

1 And a man of the house of Levi went and took as wife a daughter of Levi. 2 So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months. 3 But when she could no longer hide him, she took an ark of bulrushes for him, daubed it with asphalt and pitch, put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank. 4 And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him. 5 Then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. And her maidens walked along the riverside; and when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it. 6 And when she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.” 7 Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?” 8 And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” So the maiden went and called the child’s mother. 9 Then Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” So the woman took the child and nursed him. 10 And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. So she called his name Moses, saying, “Because I drew him out of the water.”

He was born to the house of a Priest.
His mother was the daughter of a Priest.
Moses was called by the scriptures as beautiful. (we will get back to that shortly).
When she could no longer hide him She made an ark to put him in, she sent a sister of Moses to ghost Moses to see what would become of him .
5 Then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. And her maidens walked along the riverside; and when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it. 6 And when she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept.

So she called his name Moses, saying, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
God set it up for Pharaoh’s Daughter to pay Moses mother to raise him.
She raised him as she would have anyway except for pay.
when he was old enough Pharos daughter raised him as a prince of Egypt.
Moses was called to do two things.
Moses was called to do two things.
1) Deliver the children of Isreal from bondage.

2) Reestablish the nation, their relationship with God, their relationship with each other and the outside world through the law.

He may or may not have known His purpose but He went about it the wrong way because while He was made to deliver Isreal, He did not know how to wait on God. The next thing we see is Him trying to fulfill his purpose in the Flesh.

11 Now it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren. 12 So he looked this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. 13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the one who did the wrong, “Why are you striking your companion?” 14 Then he said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” So Moses feared and said, “Surely this thing is known!” 15 When Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well. 16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their father’s flock. 17 Then the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. 18 When they came to Reuel their father, he said, “How is it that you have come so soon today?” 19 And they said, “An Egyptian delivered us from the hand of the shepherds, and he also drew enough water for us and watered the flock.” 20 So he said to his daughters, “And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.” 21 Then Moses was content to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses. 22 And she bore him a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said, “I have been a stranger in a foreign land.” 23 Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. 24 So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them.
When Moses saw the burden of His brothers he killed the slave master.
The Person He sought to deliver did not respect him.
Pharaoh Sought to kill him.
He got out of town,
Moses was content to live with them
he married Zipporah.

God is setting up moses to walk in his purpose.
He had to be ready
Isreal had to be ready.
God is fixing to call moses out of obscurity.
Moses is about to use everything he learned to fulfill his purpose.
