Hello Everyone,

The self centered approach is based on achieving.Who delivered the children of Israel from Egypt? Moses or God? God did. God chose to bring Moses into a relationship with Himself so that He - God - could deliver Israel. Did Moses ever try to take matters into his own hands? Yes. In Exodus 2:11-15. In Acts 7:25 we read that Moses tried to instigate a rebellion on behalf of God’s people.
Moses thought that his own people would realize that God was using him to rescue them, but they did not.
What could have happened in trying to deliver the Israelites in his own way? Thousands could have lost their lives. He sought to achieve God’s will by thinking his own thoughts and following his own ways. That mistake cost him 40 years of exile in Midian, during which he had to change himself to God centered living. God is not looking for us to come up with a good idea that He can bless. He is looking to bless those who will seek God’s ideas!“The eyes of the LORD search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him.” - 2 Chronicles 16:9 (NLT)

Be fully committed to Him He will show Himself to be strong.

Oh HE Loves Us!
