I WILL CERTAINLY BE WITH YOU
Moses could not imagine becoming a great leader;
He had failed in Egypt; he had become a murderer.
Forty years later saw Moses as an old man;
But he fitted right into the Lord’s divine plan.
God called him when he was in the desert tending his flock;
He had never heard God’s voice before; it was quite a shock!
The conversation God had with Moses ended with his commissioning;
Moses was to say to mighty Pharaoh, that Israel, he should be releasing!
Moses was overwhelmed by the sheer size of the task assigned;
He tried to convince God that he was not the man to be consigned!
He was not eloquent, nor knowledgeable, he was unequal to this work;
God answered all the objections of Moses; the Call he must not shirk!
“I will certainly be with you,” was the word of assurance given;
Moses need not fear anyone, being backed up by God in heaven!
The humble shepherd of Midian would become a great servant of God;
He would succeed in fulfilling his sacred Call, empowered by the LORD!
