A VISIT FROM GOD!

“God called to him…and he said, Here am I.”

“…I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you…”  Exodus 3:4; 16b

A VISIT FROM GOD

God makes surprise visits ~ are you ready?

A ready person never needs to get ready!

Moses had a visit from God and He used a burning bush that wasn’t consumed to get his attention.

God called him by name…Moses; and introduced Himself as The God of his forefathers ~ The I AM!

He told Moses He had come down from the Heavenlies to visit and deliver His People…

and, He was going to use Moses to do it!

Moses said:  Here am I…but he had lots of questions and doubt and fear.

All of which are signs of the opposing Enemy; and, all of which only God can remove…and He did!

Have you had a burning bush?

Something that got your attention

 that could only be explained by God...

and, God spoke and gave you a mission?

Additional Notes:

I think Moses was at his place of worship because he called it the mountain of God.  He also recorded that he took the flock to the back side of the desert to this spot.  He was in Midian and all the maps show this mountain a distance away.

In my attempt to find out where Horeb and Midian were during that time, I found many maps and I didn’t find a definite. 

My conclusion:  It doesn’t matter to me.  I think Moses had a favorite place where he went to be alone and in this account it is called Horeb; and I believe that God sent an angel to set  a bush on fire to get his attention; and as he drew near to figure it out, God spoke to him and Moses knew it was God and his life was changed forevermore!
