Moses and the Burning Bush: A Journey of Call and Courage

📖 Introduction

The story of Moses and the burning bush is one of the most profound and inspiring moments in the Bible. It marks the beginning of a journey where an ordinary man encounters the extraordinary presence of God and is called to an extraordinary mission. For three weeks, this study plan will guide you through Moses' call, his doubts and excuses, and God's perfect patience and power in shaping a leader who would liberate an entire nation.

In the book of Exodus, we find Moses tending sheep when he is drawn to a bush that burns with fire yet is not consumed. God's voice calls out to him from the flames, commanding him to return to Egypt and lead the Israelites out of slavery. What follows is a powerful exchange filled with hesitation — Moses gives excuse after excuse, fearing inadequacy and rejection. Yet, God meets him with patience, reassurance, and a clear purpose.

This study will help you dive deep into these rich Scriptures, reflecting on God's faithfulness to call imperfect people for His perfect plans. You'll consider how God's patience can transform doubts into trust, fears into boldness, and reluctance into action. Throughout the 21 days, you will engage with God’s Word through readings, devotional reflections, and reflective questions to help you relate Moses' journey to your own walk of faith.

This journey reminds us that God's call comes often in unexpected ways and invites us into a purpose greater than ourselves. Like Moses, we may feel inadequate or unprepared, but God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. May this study inspire you to listen for God's voice, respond with faith, and trust Him to lead you in your own calling and mission.
