When God told Moses to go to Egypt, He gave him the entire plan of how He was going to use Moses to deliver Israel. Moses, however, was hesitant asking what if they don’t believe me or what if they don’t listen to me.
God assured him that He will do everything and all God wants him to do is take that step of faith. (Read Exodus 3 & 4)
And that is how God will work in our lives.
We want God to intervene in our lives but there is something He is asking us to do. He is asking us to take that step of faith. Because without faith it is impossible to please God.
So if you are asking, “Why is God not working in my life?”, remember that before God intervenes into your situation, He will always invite you into a partnership with Him. He will ask you to take that first step of faith.
That is how God works.
Maybe you desire to do further studies abroad and you are asking how will this be? How will I meet the finances?
And if you are waiting for everything to be budgeted correctly and the money to first come into your account, that is you functioning by fear.
But by faith God wants you to take that first step of faith.
After God gave Moses all the details of how He was going to deliver Israel through him, He asked Moses what was in his hands. And Moses said he had a staff.
So the Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A rod.” Exodus 4:2
Later on when Moses took that first step of faith and left for Egypt with his wife and sons, the Bible says Moses took the rod of God.
Then Moses took his wife and his sons and set them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. And Moses took the rod of God in his hand. Exodus 4:20
The moment Moses took that step of faith, that rod was now no longer the rod of Moses. It became the rod of God. Now the authority of God was in the hands of Moses.
Whatever situation or fear you are facing, know that God is very passionate to make sure that you are not limited by it.
But, you can’t stay stuck in that situation or in that fear believing that one day suddenly something will happen.
It’s time to move out knowing who you are and who is with you.
You are anointed to break every bondage of fear over your life, only take that first step of faith.
