"But take this staff in your hand so you can perform miraculous signs
with it."- Exodus 4:17
What is the staff God has put into your hand? Is it being a builder? Is
it being an office worker? Is it being a doctor? Moses' staff
represented his vocation as a shepherd. God had something in mind for
his vocation - to perform miracles. And awesome miracles He did! God
turned the Nile river into blood with the touch of the staff. He turned
the staff into a snake. He parted the Red Sea with it. These are just a
few of the miracles God did with that staff.
When we yield our talents and abilities to the Lord, God can perform
miracles through them. First, Moses had to yield what He had in his
hand to God. Only after this took place could God use that staff. As long as
Moses held onto it, God could not and would not perform miracles
through it.
Until we come to this place with our heavenly Father, we will fail to
see miracles performed in our work. He delights in showing His power
through us. When we become an open vessel, we can expect to see things
happen.
Have you given your staff to the Lord? Offer it to Him and see what He
might want to do through it. Your life will never be the same.
