"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.
