Remembering Moses


Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face, who did all those miraculous signs and wonders the LORD sent him to do in Egypt -- to Pharaoh and to all his officials and to his whole land.

For no one has ever shown  the mighty power or performed the awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.   

                  -- Deuteronomy 34:10-12

Think of it - Moses did ALL the signs and wonders God sent him to do - not part of them, not most of them...but ALL God told him to do!

Moses did all he was sent to do.....

And he did it in the sight of (1) Pharaoh and his officials and the whole land of Egypt, and (2) in the sight of all Israel.

Moses was born in Egypt. He was reared and educated in the Pharaoh's palace in Egypt. He was an Egyptian!

But he was also one of God's people.

He was one of God's people living in an alien land - in a pagan culture. 

Kind of like us?

And he still did all that God commanded him to do.

His life challenges me.
