HAVE YOU TALKED TO GOD ABOUT IT?
"So, the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend."
Ex 33:11 NKJV
HAVE YOU TALKED TO GOD ABOUT IT?
Moses had a special place where he met God. It was called "the tabernacle of meeting"
(v 7 NKJV). What did they talk about? "Then Moses said to the Lord, 'See, You say to me, "Bring up this people." But You have not let me know whom You will send with me...Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight...' And He said, 'My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest'" (vv 12-14 NKJV). Note the three things Moses asked God about: (1) "Let me know whom You will send with me." That was wise, because people either add to you or take from you, build you up or tear you down. You need to know who belongs in your life and who doesn't, and God is the only one who can tell you that. (2) "Show me now Your way." God's will, done God's way, according to God's timetable, always brings success. But your will, done your way, according to your timetable, can bring you trouble and heartache. (3) "That I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight." Here the word "grace" means "divine enablement." By yourself you are not equal to the challenge, but through the power of God's indwelling Spirit, you can accomplish great things. What God promised to Moses, He also promises to you: "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."
