Ex



Ex 3:11

11 Moses answered God, "But why me?

Because God makes something out of nothing and that’s why faith is critical!

God told Moses
Ex 3:19-20
I know that the king of Egypt won't let you go unless forced to, 20 so I'll intervene and hit Egypt where it hurts — oh, my miracles will send them reeling!

Ex 4:1
4:1 Moses objected, "They won't trust me. They won't listen to a word I say. They're going to say, 'GOD? Appear to him? Hardly!'"

Generally people don’t believe that God CAN DO what He does do and that’s where faith comes in!

Ex 4:2-7
GOD said, "What's that in your hand?"
"A staff."
3 "Throw it on the ground." He threw it. It became a snake; Moses jumped back — fast!
4 GOD said to Moses, "Reach out and grab it by the tail." He reached out and grabbed it — and he was holding his staff again. 5 "That's so they will trust that GOD appeared to you, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob."
6 GOD then said, "Put your hand inside your shirt." He slipped his hand under his shirt, then took it out. His hand had turned leprous, like snow.
7 He said, "Put your hand back under your shirt." He did it, then took it back out — as healthy as before

Were these things normal, believable or easily figured out by humans? NO! But humans can’t do what God can do!  Nothing is impossible with God!
