FAITH CAPSULE: Know yourself in the calling assignment for your life. 

Exodus 4

God introduced Moses to Moses so that Moses could know what was in his hand.
Do you know yourself in the Lord? 
Know yourself in the Lord to know what the Lord has deposited in you. 
How you know yourself in the Lord will determine how far you will go in the calling of God.
Do you know yourself in the Lord? 
Psalm 49:20 states, “A man who is in honor yet does not understand is like the beasts that perish.” 
Not knowing self in the Lord will not know how to engage the calling assignment. 
Above all, knowing what the Lord has put in your hand. 
Do you know what is in your hand? 
When God was about to raise a giant among the giants that glorified His name, the excuse of not knowing self was an agent of disruption for Moses. 
In the calling of Moses, every attempt of God to get him on assignment encountered several reasonable excuses. 
Moses did not know what the Lord had for him to realize what the Lord deposited in His hand for the calling assignment for his life.
God will not call for an assignment without empowering the called.
At the time He called Moses, Moses did not know himself. 
God introduced Moses to Moses so that Moses could know what was in his hand. 
Exodus 4:2-4 records, “So the LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A rod.” And He said, “Cast it on the ground.” So he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent, and Moses fled from it. 4 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Reach out your hand and take it by the tail” (and he reached out his hand and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand),”  
A rod of God in hand is the power of God at hand. 
Moses could not have missed the assignment if the Lord had not shown him what He had deposited in him. 
In your calling, know this day that God has put a fitting rod in your hand for the assignment.  
Among all the disciples who walked with Jesus while He was on the face of the earth, none contributed to the assignment of the Kingdom of God like the apostle Paul. 
Apostle Paul did not walk with Jesus on the face of the earth he knew himself in the Lord more than any of the disciples. 
Paul testified, “But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.” (1 Corinthians 15:10) 
Know yourself and take off in the direction of your calling.

Prayer for today: Ask God to open the understanding that will enable you to know yourself in the calling assignment for your life.
