Hold Firmly To The Staff Of God

I was looking through some notes tonight trying to find something to write about. I found a devotional thought written by Nick Palermo, a man I know. It is pretty good. I thought you might like it. Moses had encountered God in a bush. God chose him for this ministry in Egypt. But Moses objected. God answered by giving him a staff, which Moses would use to perform the miracles. "So Moses took his wife and sons and put them on a donkey for the return to Egypt. He had a firm grip on the staff of God." - Exodus 4:20. My friend has had numerous challenges during his time in the ministry. But he is holding a firm grip on the staff. He has not had one or two minor issues. He has had a "Barrage of challenges." It has made him hold firmly to the staff of God. We undoubtedly face similar challenges as my friend. When that happens, hold firmly to the staff of God. He writes, When people don't believe in you, hold firmly to the staff of God. When the challenge is way bigger than you...hold firmly to the staff of God. When you doubt you are the right person...hold firmly to the staff of God. When more money is rolling out than rolling in...hold firmly to the staff of God. When you are weary...hold firmly to the staff of God. When you are criticized and your flaws are public...hold firmly to the staff of God. When you feel alone, isolated or misunderstood...hold firmly to the staff of God. When you feel you cannot bear another hurt...hold firmly to the staff of God. When it seems God has abandoned you, hold firmly to the staff of God." Today's Winning Thought: Moses was out of his comfort zone with regard to this calling. If you find yourself having similar feelings, hold firmly to the staff of God.
