Memorize: 1 Corinthians 3:8
« The person who plants and the person who waters have the same purpose. And each one will be rewarded for their own work. »
Read: Exodus 4:18; Exodus 4: 27 – 31
Moses went back home to his father-in-law Jethro and told him that he was going to return to Egypt. Then he took his wife and his sons—and the special stick God had told him to take—and started on his journey.
Meanwhile, the Lord had told Aaron to meet Moses in the desert. So Aaron met him at the holy mountain. There, Moses told his brother everything the Lord had said.
Together, Moses and Aaron went to the leaders of the Israelites and told them that the Lord would free them from the Egyptians. After that, Moses did miracles as a sign of God’s power, and the people believed them.
Should I trust God to help me do a task on my own, or should I ask others for help?
Sometimes God may tell you to do something He knows you can’t do in your own strength. If He has promised to help you do a job on your own, He wants you to trust Him and not rely on others to make your task easier.
However, at other times God wants us to work together with those whose strengths can help our weaknesses.
Whenever we do something for God, we need to be humble; either by relying on God to use us in spite of our weaknesses, or by letting others help us and allowing them to share in the joy of serving God.
Remember though, if we make excuses and expect God to use someone else to do the work, we cannot grow in our faith. God wants us to learn to depend on Him and also be willing to humbly work side by side with others.
