“Then the LORD said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the LORD?” ~ Exodus 4:11

In this passage, Moses had just expressed to God that he just not have the ability to DO what God had called him to (to lead Israel from captivity from Egypt) … he couldn’t SPEAK well at all!  God basically tells him, “Moses, I created you AND your mouth and can make you speak or not speak.”

Have you ever been given a task that you thought, “There is no way in the world I’ll be able to do that?” Maybe God has called you to something that you are afraid to do.  Maybe you think, “Lord, who am I?  I have no idea how to do this.” Maybe you’ve wondered, “Lord, I’m NOTHING like the other guy who does this and he’s amazing. How can you expect ME to do that? You’ve got the wrong person for this!”

Maybe He’s set you on a path that, in one part of your mind sounds absolutely amazing yet in another part of your mind sounds FRIGHTENING!! The problem comes when we begin to entertain that first thought in our mind that says, “How in the world am I going to do this? I can’t do that? I’m just… well, ME!”

Here’s the thing.  God does not call us to things that He will not equip and enable us to do.  Why?  Because God is in the business of showing HIS glory to the world… and when YOU can’t make it happen without HIM… HE gets all the glory… as He should. The more we have to rely on Him, the more evident HIS power and glory become to the world.

WHO MADE YOU?! The creator of the universe!

So, again, if HE calls you through it… HE will equip and enable you… you just have to TRUST and GO FOR IT!

 

In Him,

Coach Bryan
