God is Building a Team

Date: Sep. 7, 2015

Passage

Exodus 4:18- 31  (ESV)

Daily Bread

Key Verse: 4:29-30

First, a decision of faith to obey the Lord (18-23). God gave commands and Moses simply obeyed, setting off as God directed. Moses never debated with God or insisted on understanding everything first. He simply obeyed. It is basic that anyone answering the call of God must have an attitude of trust in, and obedience to God as they live by faith.

Second, God is forming his larger team (24-31).

God's work is never done by one person. It requires a team. Here we see a spouse, a brother and community elders. Behind every great man is an even greater woman. God helped Moses by inspiring Zipporah to circumcise their son. When Moses was too weak to do the right thing, his wife stood in the gap. God brought two brothers together. Aaron saw God's hand and committed himself to the mission. Siblings may be part of the team. Vision casting among the elders is essential. It is importance to get all the community elders on board with God's plan. The team joined in worship.

Prayer: Lord, help me work with other members of the team you have formed so that you may be glorified.

One Word: God is building a team so get on board!
