EX 4:13 But Moses said, "O Lord, please send someone else to do it."
For most of us who have endured and progressed successfully in our wilderness training and preparation time, we
have felt weary, spent, depleted, old, tired, and wrecked in certain ways. The shine and lure of the original promises to
be used greatly in ministry have dulled and we no longer need to feed our ego with any outward accomplishments. Some of us
have become apathetic, indifferent, and even cynical concerning doing anymore "ministry" stuff, and we just want to live out
the remainder of our life in peace and quiet. Like Moses we have done our time in Midian and aren't even sure if we want to
go back to Egypt and fulfill our old call now. Some of us have even told God to go find someone else more capable of doing
it.
NU 12:3 (Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.)
The above statement is no exaggeration, and Moses truly was the most humble man on the earth at that time in history,
and do you know why? Because God had given him a full revelation as to who Jehovah really was, and who Moses really was. And
when this happens there is no longer any gold ring to be grasped in life because you see clearly that God really is in control,
and that we don't have to be anymore. But there can be a slight drawback to certain revelation though, it can diminish our
zeal and sense of initiative to go and do great things in the earth for God. But even though Moses no longer desired to go
fulfill his call, he was still the only one qualified enough to go do the job at the time, and so it is with your life.
EX 4:17 But take this staff in your hand so you can perform miraculous signs with it.
Moses may have no longer felt the same zeal, burden, or energy that he once felt to go and fulfill his old calling,
but his old calling was still fully in effect, and would one day call to him again. You have needed to go through all of the
preparation and humbling that you have gone through to get ready for your calling, and even though you may no longer feel
the same zeal to go and accomplish it, you are still one of very few if any, that are truly ready and fully qualified to go
do it. Trust that even if you do not feel up to the task that God does, and that He can and will show forth His strength through
your weakened state. Just be willing to pick up your staff and old gifting once again, and God will take care of the rest
as you just obey.
DT 31:8 The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not
be afraid; do not be discouraged.
