There can be times in our walk where feelings of inadequacy creep into our thinking. When such feelings take hold, our faith starts to suffer, and the advancement of our Heavenly Call is greatly hindered.
I can clearly remember one occasion where deep feelings of inadequacy afflicted me as I walked through the refining fire of the Holy Spirit. Although I was being greatly liberated through the love and power of Jesus Christ, the demonic warfare that attacked me through this gruelling process had taken its toll and I was feeling tired, defeated, and unworthy. These feelings really enhanced one evening while hosting a healing meeting.
I had invited my mentor to preach/minister. I was battle weary as I sat in my seat, and with a heavy heart I cried out to God, “I am not worthy if this. How am I ever going to make it? Who am I Jesus?”
As I wrestled with this internal struggle, I opened my Bible and this scripture was revealed to me:
EXODUS 3:7-14 And the LORD said: “I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows. 8 So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites. 9 Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.” 11 But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” 12 So He said, “I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.” 13 Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?” 14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”Continued…
