DAILY?READINGS: Num. 23:27-24:25; Prov. 21:12-22:16; Luke 1:1-25

And Moses said unto the Lord…I am not eloquent… Exodus 4:10

God had commissioned Moses for a task. The God who could turn a rod into a serpent, a healthy hand into a leprous one and reverse the procedure, could certainly enable Moses to address Pharaoh. Aaron was to help him, but he let Moses down more than once, including speaking against him in the wilderness, along with his sister, Miriam. If God has given you a gift He will help you to exercise it. Don’t be fearful, lazy or self deprecating. —Brian Russell

Stand then in His great might,
With all His strength endued,
And take to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God.
—Charles Wesley
