When people talk about hearing God’s voice and exploring the Bible, have you thought, “I want that too, but I am too old” or “I am not smart enough?” Well, in this program, Chip has some much-needed encouragement for you as he continues his series, Going Deeper. Hear how to have genuine closeness with God as Chip studies the life and faith of Moses.
Main Points
Moses’ Story
- Born during a time of peril: The children of Israel were being persecuted by Pharaoh.
- Adopted into an Egyptian family: Raised in a secular environment, yet he was exposed to his Hebrew roots.
- Despite his privileged life, he comes to a point where he asks, “what’s life really about?”
- He made mistakes, such as killing an Egyptian, which led to his fleeing and living as a shepherd for forty years.
- After leaving Egypt, Moses feels a deep sense of unworthiness, inability, and inadequacy.
God wants to walk with you step-by-step
- He wants you to know His will.
- He wants you to enjoy His presence.
- He wants to guide and direct you.
Walking with God
- It’s never too late, you’re never too old; God wants to walk with you and use you for His glory.
- When you stop walking with God you get what you can produce, but when you walk with God you get what He wants to produce in and through you.
- When you walk with God it can sometimes be lonely and difficult, but He’ll fulfill His good work in us. -Philippians 1:6
Takeaway:
- You need to ask God for a passion, not just to get good things from Him, but to actually know what He’s like.
