will be with you
Exodus 3:9-12
Einstein discovered the principle of relativity and no one exists alone. It is said that it is because each other becomes the source of existence that makes each other exist. I mean you make me what you are. Humans live in harmony with nature. If man destroys nature, man cannot exist. And people live with people. I get hurt and disappointed by people, but I live with people.
Although Moses was born as a child of the Levites, he grew up as the son of a princess in the palace of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and learned all the sciences of Egypt. One day, an incident occurred in which he killed an Egyptian, and while fleeing to the wilderness of Midian, he met God and a new life began. God said to Moses, “Surely I will be with you.” The greatest blessing in life is to be with God. Who will God be with?
He is with those who cry out.
God is with those who cry out. “Now the cry of the children of Israel has come to me, and I have seen the Egyptians afflicting them” (verse 9). A cry is a groan in pain. I cry because of the unbearable pain. “The cry came to me,” the cry came to God. It means that prayers have reached God. God was with the Israelites because they cried out. Breastfeeding a crying baby is right. You can't help it if you just cry.
The people of Israel were the ones who cried out and found favor. The children of Israel groaned and cried because of their torment, and a cry came up to God because of their torment (Exodus 2:23). They cried out before the Red Sea. The Red Sea was in front of them, and Pharaoh's army was pursuing them from behind. In a dead end, with no way back and no way forward, they cried out.
The Bible describes the scene where Israel cried out like this. “...You watched our ancestors afflicted in Egypt, and heard the cry of the Red Sea, and performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh and all his servants and all his people... He made them pass through the midst of the sea like dry land; He cast those who pursued them into the deep waters as stones are thrown into great waters; He led them with a pillar of cloud by day... ” (Nehemiah 9:9-11)
God is with those who cry out. When he cried out, he heard their cry and struck Pharaoh, his servants, and the people with ten plagues. When he cried out, he parted the Red Sea. When they cried out, they drowned Pharaoh's army as if they were throwing stones into the Red Sea. When you cry out, God is with you. He makes a way and gives light. “How many are my enemies! Many are rising up against me. I cry with my voice, and he answers me from his holy mountain” (Psalm 3:1,4).
People cry when they are afraid. Whenever you cry out, God is with you. When the children of Israel were very afraid, they cried out to the Lord, and when they saw Moses and said, “Did you bring us out of Egypt to do this to us?” Moses said, “Do not be afraid, stand still and see the salvation the Lord will do for you today The LORD will fight for you, so be still.” As God instructed, Moses stretched out his staff over the sea. When Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, the Lord caused the sea to retreat with a great east wind (Exodus 14:10-21).
When you cry out, God is with you. God saves those who cry. Mothers are sensitive to the cries of their babies. I can hear well even in deep sleep. God is with his people who cry and fights for those who cry.
“For all those who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God; you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received the spirit of adoption, so we cry, Abba, Father” (Romans 8:14-15). not at will. You must receive the spirit of adoption, the spirit of adoption. Receive the spirit of adoption, Father, Father! and cry out. God is with you.
He works with people who are not confident.
Would it make sense to say that Moses was the least confident of the heroes of the Bible? A timid and weak-minded person is the real reality of Moses. “Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt” (verse 11). How do I get to Pharaoh and lead the Israelites out? This shows how low self-esteem and lack of self-confidence Moses was.
And the LORD said to him, "What is in your hand...a staff. Throw it to the ground, and it has become a snake. catch the tail! When caught, it becomes a stick.
Is that all? Put your hands in your arms! When I put my hand in my arms and pulled it out, I found leprosy. I was healed after repeating it (Exodus 4:1-7). Even after seeing the miracles, Moses is not confident. “Lord, I am not fluent in words,” he says, and takes a step backwards. In the end, will the Lord be angry with Moses? (Exodus 4:10-14)
Why is Moses so insecure? I don't know if it's because I didn't grow up with my parents. Even after completing the best studies at the time, I am not confident. It is a blessing to grow up with good parents. A good parent is one who builds self-esteem and fosters self-esteem.
You are instilling self-esteem in your young son. One day an interesting thing happened. After going out and coming home late, I did not even have time to talk, so I laid him on the bed. After a while, the little boy called his mother. I went to see why and said, “Mom, I need to tell you who I am.” Why? it's superman it's spiderman that you won't tell me. That house is a prestigious family of faith. A royal descendant comes from the royal family. We are raising priests like kings. If you sow a good seed, it will germinate and bear good fruit. There is no better seed than the Word of God. Please educate your children through the Word.
When the enemy sows tares, tares will appear. Heaven is like sowing good seeds in your field. If you sow the Word of God, you will receive the fruit. Moses had a relationship with God. Moses, who grew up without parents, was over 40 and met God and overcame the obstacles of his childhood. He had no self-esteem or self-confidence, but through a relationship with God, he gained self-esteem and gained confidence through the Word of God. We are God's children and precious saints. God is with those who are not confident. When God is with you, you will have confidence. I am a child of God! I can do all things through him who strengthens me!
He is with those who lead the people.
God works with people who do what God has entrusted to them. “Now I will send you to Pharaoh, and you will bring my people out of Egypt to me” (verse 10). These words mean that God is helping the people of Israel to come out of Egypt. It means that you want to do what you do well. Gather the elders of Israel and tell them God's will, and they will listen to you.
“They will listen to you, and you shall say to the king of Egypt with the elders of Israel, ‘Give us three days to go into the wilderness, for the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has come to us, and we are going to make a sacrifice to the LORD our God. (Exodus 3:18) “Allow me to go into the wilderness about a three-day journey” This refers to Mount Horeb, which is reached after three days’ journey. This is where Moses met God. It is called “Horeb, the mountain of God” (Exodus 3:1). The place where God dwells is called the holy land.
God is with the leaders who do his work. The Apostle Paul says, “We are laborers together with God” (2 Corinthians 6:1). I am a worker with God, and God is a worker with me. Those who work with God are “as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing all things” (2 Corinthians 6:10). Those with whom God is with him are those who rejoice and are rich and have everything.
“Surely I will be with you, says God, and after you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will serve God on this mountain, and this is the proof that I sent you” (verse 12). It was brought out of Egypt. God, who made it happen, promised, “Surely I will be with you.” The protagonist of the Exodus is not the human Moses, but Jehovah God.
Jesus said this when he gave his disciples a mission. “Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me; therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all I have commanded you , behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the world” (Matthew 28:18-20).
The commandment of the Lord is summarized in three things. First, go and make disciples of all nations. Making disciples is making people who do what the Lord did. He worked to find and save the lost. Disciples are those who imitate Jesus' character and actions. The second is to baptize. Baptism is the conversion of an unbeliever or a member of another religion to become a believer. From now on, following God and committing ourselves to Him is baptism. Fifth is to teach them to keep them. The Apostle Paul also told Timothy, “If you enlighten your brothers by these things, you will become good servants of Christ Jesus, nurtured in the word of faith and in the good teaching that you follow” (1 Timothy 4:6). Please believe that when God is with us, I am doing what pleases God.
God was with Moses. And he was with his disciple Joshua. “No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life, for I will be with you as I was with Moses… Be strong, and I will give you the land I swore I will give you” (Joshua 1:5-6). you do it with people. He is with those who pray. He works with people who are weak in heart and lack confidence. He is with those who lead God's people. Glorify God as it is said, “I have glorified you in this world by doing what you gave me to do” (John 17:4). He works with those who evangelize. God is speaking to us. “…I will surely be with you!”
