People of Faith: Moses | 11th August 2024

This sermon explores the faithfulness demonstrated across Moses' life in choosing to pursue God above everything else. 

At the beginning of Moses' life his parents made this decision in refusing to hand him over. Moses then took on the baton in deciding to reject his privileged Egyptian identity in order to walk in his identity as a child of God. 

These decisions all came at a cost. For Moses it was rejection by Gods people and 40 years in the wilderness. However, these were worthwhile costs to suffer because the infinite treasure of knowing and walking with God far outweighs these. 

Moses then entered a new phase of steadfastly pursuing God post burning bush when God met mightily with him. This triggered an insatiable desire in his life to keep pursuing Gods presence and led to him having his prayer to see the glory of God answered. 

Lord, help us to imitate this faithful example, that we might make daily decisions to pursue you and thus encounter your presence in powerful ways.
