Nobody



Pastor Charles Swindoll has said that the life of Moses can be divided into three, distinct, 40-year periods.


In the first 40-year period, Moses thought that he was somebody.


In the second 40-year period, Moses learned that he was nobody.


In the third 40-year period, Moses learned that God can use a nobody.


In fact, God told Moses as much in Exodus 4:11-12 (NKJV), when God declared to Moses, "Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? Have not I, the Lord? Now therefore, go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall say."


God, through His own divine help, can use a nobody to accomplish great things for His kingdom.


God can use a nobody.


A nobody.


Like Moses.


Or you.


Or me.
