God Who Can Meet All Our Needs
Backgrounder to Exodus 3-6:
With his long period of desert
exile drawing to a close, Moses
becomes God’s choice to lead His
people out of bondage in Egypt.
When confronted by God in the
burning bush, Moses is far from
convinced he is the right man
for the job! But once his objections
have been answered & knowing
the Almighty All Sufficient God
can meet all his needs, Moses
goes forward to confront Pharaoh.
Lord, You’re the All Sufficient One
who can meet All Our Needs:
Then Moses said to God: Indeed,
when I come to the children of
Israel and say to them: The God
of your fathers has sent me to
you, and they say to me: What
is His name? what shall I say to
them? And God said to Moses:
I AM WHO I AM. Thus you shall
say to the children of Israel: I AM
has sent me to you (Exo 3:13-14).
Lord, You are all powerful and
You are the All Sufficient One.
You led the Israelites into freedom
assuring them that you are all-
sufficient. And Your sufficiency is
comforting to us as your children.
Lord, whilst you hold the world
in your hands, I confess my
insufficiency in the light of
your all-sufficiency. Pardon the
impatience I feel when something
goes wrong at work, or at home,
or in a relationship. Forgive any
doubts that you are good & mighty.
And U can and will meet my needs.
Lord, you are beyond my capacity
of full understanding. But I trust
Your Spirit will graciously grant
into my life the things that U want
me to accomplish & experience.
Empower us to cooperate with
you as U manifest your kingdom.
And thanks for yr lovingkindness
& praise U that U are our All in All.
In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
