GOD DOESN'T SEEK OUT THE MOST QUALIFIED; HE CALLS THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO OBEY HIM.

EXODUS 3:10-22
EXODUS 4:1-17
MATTHEW 25-26

Yesterday, we saw how God used Moses to carry out His plans, and ultimately the mission became one of the greatest in all of Scripture. But it didn’t start out that way.

When first called, the future leader responded with list of reasons explaining why he shouldn’t obey. He tried to hide behind the same faith barriers believers cite today: a poor self-image (Ex. 3:11-12), ignorance about God (vv. 13-21), self-doubt (4:1-9), and feelings of inadequacy (vv. 10-11). Fearing that he would fail, Moses protested that the Lord had asked the wrong person, but God responded with a firm, persuasive rebuttal.

The theme of God’s answers is something all believers need to understand, just as Moses finally did—namely, that when we are called to serve, human strength, skill, and wisdom do not matter. Rather, it is the Lord who does the work through us. He doesn’t seek out the most qualified person for a particular job but instead calls those who are willing to surrender to Him.

Excuses for disobedience haven’t changed much since Moses encountered the burning bush. When you’re tempted to respond with “But … ,” remember you don’t have to be qualified or prepared. God saw Moses as he was and equipped him. He will do the same for you.
