Moses is probably my favourite character in the Bible. He's such a cool guy!! Whenever I read his story I seem to get more and more little nuggets of information from it. And while reading it this week, I realised something;
Moses was obedient.
But only to God.
Moses was raised an Egyptian under Pharaoh's care, but turned away from his life of luxury when he realised that the Israelites, Gods chosen people, were being treated badly by the Egyptians. He turned away from all her knew to go and serve God.
Moses obeyed God when it was difficult, like when God asked him to asked him to go back to Egypt and speak to Pharaoh. He obeyed God when he had doubts about himself, like he had when God told him he was going to lead the Israelites. And most importantly, he obeyed God when the task ahead seemed impossible, like crossing the Red Sea.
Every time Moses obeyed God, it had a positive effect on him, his faith, and his relationship with God.
I pray that we can all have the strength and courage to stand up for God, to obey Jesus and follow the plan He has for us, even when it seems like the impossible thing to-do.
