FAITH CAPSULE: He is the Unchanging changer and no one can hide from God.
Exodus 3:1-12
God alone is God. He is true to perform and He performs to perfect. Psalmist was talking about the Israelites journey to the Promise Land when it was stated, “He permitted no one to do them wrong; Yes, He rebuked kings for their sakes, saying, “Do not touch My anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.”” (Psalm 105:14-15) Going by the testimony of the psalmist, it is evident that God is in position to allow and disallow everything that happens under heaven. God can do and undo as He pleases; He is the Unchanging changer. There is no one that can actually hide from God.
At the time Moses was running away from Pharaoh God called to send Moses to Pharaoh, “Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.” (Exodus 3:10) Moses knowing who he was, responded to God, “…Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” (Exodus 3:11) Have you been thinking about who you are? On the journey of life, it is not about whom you are but who God says you are. God has a purpose for all His creation and there is no record of mistake in creation.Once, He told Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” (Jeremiah 1:5) As much as Moses tried to avoid his calling, God made Moses to realize that He would certainly be with Him. Stating, “I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.” (Exodus 3:12)
It was not important in regard to whom Joshua sees himself to be but it was important with regard to who God called him to be. After the death of Moses God spoke to Joshua, “Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given you, as I said to Moses.” (Joshua 1:3) Moving from convenience into commitment is not a cordial move. When it is time for you to be removed situations will force you and God will give you a formal announcement of who you are and what He wants for you to be. Moses relocated from palace to desert where he could not hide but to respond to what God called him to be.
Prayer for today: Ask God to guide you that you will live life to fulfill your divine assignment.
