Wisdom For Destiny Daily Devotional *(16th May, 2024)*

TOPIC: Self-esteem Empowerment (Part 3)

Exodus 4:10‬
Then Moses said to the Lord, “O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before nor since You have spoken to Your servant; but I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.”


*Message*

Let's see the interesting case of Moses now. Moses was adopted into the royal Palace of Egypt and he grew up being equipped with privileged skills and knowledge reserved for only royalties, to empower those royals for continual advantage over their subjects. You would have thought a guy like that would forever be charged for all manner of exploits, not until he started dealing with challenges attached to his destiny.

In Exodus chapter two, after Moses discovered his deeds (killing an Egyptian) had been leaked, all his advantages in the flesh failed him and he fled for his life. He settled for a humble quiet life of tending sheep for many years, and all the royal confidence instilled into him years ago in the Palace of Egypt began to wane. So much so that when he eventually encountered God in the burning bush, he insisted that he wasn't worthy of such an assignment, even telling God to choose someone else better than him.

*Don't over-rely on your physical skills and academic knowledge when it comes to matters of destiny. Like Moses, there are points in life when challenges attached to your destiny will strip your advantages in the physical realm of its strengths, and only fresher revelations of how God sees you will empower you to keep going.*

*Prayers*

Press for fresher encounters with the LORD, for fresher revelations of how He sees and regards you.
