Hebrews 11:27 It was by faith Moses left the land of Egypt, not fearing the king's anger. He kept right on going because he kept his eyes on the one who is invisible.
It's interesting our verse tells us Moses left Egypt by faith. He didn't do it by strategy, or cleverness on his part, or by manipulation or subterfuge. No, he did it by faith. When God asks us to do the impossible, we have to remember if we do it by faith then it will be possible. Faith makes the impossible possible.
He didn't hesitate or delay because he didn't have any reservations for the wilderness hotel. It says he kept right on going because he kept his eyes on the one who is invisible. When God said move, he moved. When God said stop, he stopped. He had such confidence in God that whatever God said he'd learned to just do it, no matter what things looked like or felt like and just kept going.
When God first told him to do the job at the burning bush Moses gave every excuse under the sun to try and get out of it. He really didn't want the job. Maybe God has asked you to do something and you don't want to do it either because it looks pretty impossible or you don't feel qualified or it seems too hard.
Well may I encourage each one of us, whatever it is, whether it's going to your neighbour, or contacting someone you haven't spoken to in a while, or you're being called to a new job or learn new skills, we can know that God will equip us and strengthen us to do whatever it is He's asking.
And if you've already started then God is saying keep right on going. Don't stop and don't give up because God has already prepared the way and if He needs to part a Red Sea for you then He will, He doesn't expect you to do it! 😊
