In this message, we're reminded of God's unwavering faithfulness and His desire to use us despite our perceived inadequacies. The story of Moses in Exodus 3 takes center stage, highlighting how even great biblical figures struggled with self-doubt. We see Moses attempting to disqualify himself from God's call, much like we often do in our own lives. However, God's response is a beautiful reminder of His grace: 'I will be with you.' This promise echoes through time, assuring us that God equips those He calls. The revelation of God's personal name, Yahweh (I AM WHO I AM), underscores the intimate relationship He desires with us. As we face our own 'burning bush' moments, we're encouraged to step out in faith, trusting not in our own abilities, but in the God who goes before us. This message challenges us to confront the excuses and shame that hold us back, urging us to embrace the freedom and purpose God offers.

In this powerful exploration of Exodus, we're reminded that God's plan is never thwarted, even when circumstances seem dire. The story of Moses' birth and early life shows us how God works in unexpected ways, using what appears to be defeat to bring about victory. Just as Moses was placed in a vulnerable position in the Nile, only to be rescued and raised in Pharaoh's own house, we too can trust that God is working behind the scenes in our lives. This message challenges us to redefine our concept of 'home' and 'fitting in.' As followers of Christ, we're called to be in the world but not of it, finding our true identity and belonging in God's family rather than worldly systems. Let's embrace our role as pilgrims and sojourners, allowing our passions to be guided by God's Word as we navigate the complexities of modern life.
