Fear Your Greatest Enemy

Exodus Chapter 4 vs 1,10-13
Moses answered the *LORD. ‘Perhaps the *Israelites will not believe me’, Moses said. ‘Perhaps they will not listen to me. They may say to me, “The *LORD did not appear to you.”
Then Moses replied to the *LORD. ‘My *Lord, I have never been an impressive speaker. I was not a good speaker before you spoke to me. And I am still the same now. I speak very slowly. And it is difficult for me to say the right words.’
So the *LORD asked him. ‘Who gave to people their mouths? Who makes them deaf or makes them dumb? Who gives sight to them or makes them blind? I do those things. It is I, the *LORD. Now go. I will help you to speak. I will teach you what to say.’
But still Moses argued. ‘My *Lord, please send someone else to do it’, he said.
When we are afraid, we tend to make excuses for our behavior. We talk ourselves out of doing things when doubts appear in our hearts. We try to justify our actions when we are reluctant to follow through on our obligations. The Lord understands that we are weak and broken vessels, but He cannot bless the messes that we wind up getting into because we failed to follow through on his directions for our lives.
If we fail, He does not abandon us. He helps us to get through all of our issues. He helps us to find a way to break free from the traps of the enemy. He always has a solution, but we must be willing to listen to Him and to follow in His footsteps.
He is very patient with us, and He will wait for us to realize that His way is far better than anything that we could ever do, we just need to let go of our need to do things in our own way. It is far better to face life with the one that created you than it is to face the darkness alone.
Moses tried to argue with God because He was afraid to go back to Egypt to face the Pharaoh. What God wanted him to do seemed like a monumental task. God is not worried about our doubts or our fears. We can speak to him candidly about everything that is in our hearts. What God is really asking us to do is to trust His judgment over the situation and to follow His advice. When we agree to partner with Him, He is obligated to make sure that what He wants us to do will be accomplished.
If God can do great things, then He will be able to help you do what seems impossible to everyone else. It is a bit strange and wondrous to work for the Lord. His miracles abound in the earth every single day, but many people dismiss them as luck or a favorable series of coincidences. It is the Lord’s people that should be able to see above the mundane and to praise His name for every miracle in every circumstance that we find ourselves in. He is not worried if the world chooses to ignore the good things that he does, but we should thank Him everyday for all the great miracles that we see in our own lives.
So, what should we do when God asks us to do something that seems impossible? Thank Him for including us in His plans, bless his Holy Name, wait to hear what He wants us to do and then obey Him. We will watch all of those wonderful miracles unfold in our lives….
