No Questions

Do you ever tell the LORD, "Who me? ... But I couldn't ... You don't really want me to ..." That is exactly what Mo did in Exodus chapter 4. You see God had called him to go to Pharaoh have a little chat and then lead God's people out of Egypt. Mo's response to God is so like ours... "Oh, uh I can't ... (you fill in what God wants you to do here) because ... (you can fill in your own reason here)." Did God ask Mo for an excuse? No. Did God as Mo to question? No. Did God ask Mo to go? Yes! Often when God speaks to us we say, "Uh... but... really... did you think about... I'm not sure..." Let's knock it off! When God speaks, just say Yes! No questions. So what you think you can't - God obviously thinks you can otherwise He wouldn't of asked. You may not be adequate in and of yourself, but with the power of God's Holy Spirit in you, you are more than adequate to do whatever God asks you to do. So next time God asks you to do something don't say, "But..." rather say, "Yes!" "...We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us." Romans 8:37
