WFW: Faltering Lips

It’s Word Full Wednesday—your chance to add a blog post full of Scripture glorifying God and linking up with the Internet Cafe.

Exodus 6:30 says: “Since I speak with faltering lips why would Pharaoh listen to me?” If you aren’t familiar with the story, Moses has been chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt. When he learns about this it’s safe to say he doesn’t grab the staff and goes on his way without reservation. In fact, he gives God facts to remind God why he isn’t the best man for the job.

The biggest reason? He stutters and feels he wouldn’t make a great leader.

I might not have faltering lips but I have a faltering everything else. A tongue that goes wagging without going to God first. A narrow vision that sees a glimpse and announces a full verdict without being asked to judge. A pointy finger that believes the rest of the body knows all when in fact, I know so little.

Yet, God. God doesn’t call the equipped, He equips the called.

God called Moses.

And if you have breath, you have purpose.

In Jesus’ name, God calls you.

Will you answer?
