Day 3

Scripture to Read: Exodus 4:6–9

In Exodus 4:6–9, God continued to show Moses how powerful He was. First, God had Moses place his hand inside his robe around the area of his chest and when Moses removed his hand, it was leprous, as white as snow. So, God had Moses put his hand back in his robe and it was completely healed when Moses pulled his hand back out. It’s hard for us to imagine seeing a miracle like this happen before our eyes, but then again, we often see miracles. Think about this—every time we see a person surrender to Christ as Lord, we see a dead person raised to life through Christ. We also see a person who was spiritually blind given new sight to see Christ as their Lord and King and to see the fullness of His Word as Truth. We also see a person who was spiritually deaf to God and His Word now hearing God speak through His Word. There is no greater miracle than a transformed life. God did not want Moses to miss His incredible power and what He could do through Moses if Moses would trust Him. God even told Moses in Exodus 4:9, “But if they will not believe even these two signs or heed what you say, then you shall take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground; and the water which you take from the Nile will become blood on the dry ground.” God wants us to trust Him completely so He can use us for His glory too.

Day 1

As we saw in last week's devotions, as God called Moses to return to Egypt, Moses had concerns about his weaknesses. Moses expressed his concerns to God in Exodus 3:11, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt?” So, we can see that Moses felt pretty inadequate to be the one to lead Israel...

Day 2

God loves to use ordinary things and do extraordinary things with them, as He uses us to accomplish His purpose and plans for His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). We saw yesterday how Moses doubted how God planned to use him. Today, we read how God gave Moses a sign of His great power. Moses had a staff, as all shepherds did. The shepherd's ...

Day 4

Over the last three days, we have seen how God showed Moses His incredible power through the miracles God displayed before Moses. By this time, one would think that Moses would be ready to go to Egypt and be used miraculously by God. But Moses still struggled with looking too much at himself, even as he stood in the presence of God. Moses com...

Day 5

After all we have seen God do in Exodus 4 this week to show Moses how powerful He is, and with everything that God said to Moses, Moses still pushed back, trying to get God to choose someone else. Today, we read in Exodus 4:13, Moses’s plea to God to use someone else as Moses said, “Please, Lord, now send the message by whomever You will.” It...

Day 6

God said one more thing to Moses before Moses departed to his father-in-law. God told Moses in Exodus 4:17, “You shall take in your hand this staff, with which you shall perform the signs.” God made sure Moses knew that what Moses probably considered an ordinary shepherd's staff would be a powerful tool for God to use as Moses followed God’s ...

Day 7

As we finish today, we find an interesting portion of Scripture as we read Exodus 4:24–31. For some reason, Moses had never had his son circumcised. The covenant of circumcision was set in place by God with Abraham back in Genesis 17:10, “This is My covenant, which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: every male ...
