[1199.50 --> 1199.86] is this. |
[1199.92 --> 1201.42] It's Moses' response. |
[1201.84 --> 1202.68] Now in order to do that |
[1202.68 --> 1203.34] though, we have to remember |
[1203.34 --> 1204.06] his context |
[1204.06 --> 1205.06] just a little bit. |
[1205.94 --> 1206.32] Now remember, |
[1206.44 --> 1207.20] Moses was working |
[1207.20 --> 1208.04] as a shepherd |
[1208.04 --> 1209.96] for about 40 years |
[1209.96 --> 1211.50] before this time happened. |
[1211.98 --> 1212.56] Now for someone |
[1212.56 --> 1213.48] of his knowledge, |
[1213.84 --> 1215.08] for someone of his education |
[1215.08 --> 1215.64] in past, |
[1215.92 --> 1216.50] this would have been |
[1216.50 --> 1217.02] considered |
[1217.02 --> 1218.58] very poor employment |
[1218.58 --> 1219.20] actually. |
[1220.16 --> 1221.42] Very poor employment. |
[1221.90 --> 1222.32] And yet, |
[1223.00 --> 1223.26] Moses |
[1223.26 --> 1224.78] was very content |
[1224.78 --> 1225.72] doing this. |
[1226.66 --> 1227.30] He was happy |
[1227.30 --> 1227.92] to be a shepherd |
[1227.92 --> 1228.40] in Midian. |
[1228.74 --> 1229.52] He was satisfied. |
[1229.70 --> 1230.20] He was meek |
[1230.20 --> 1230.72] and content |
[1230.72 --> 1231.70] and he was humble |
[1231.70 --> 1232.46] as he worked |
[1232.46 --> 1232.94] as a shepherd. |
[1233.14 --> 1233.98] And these are all things |
[1233.98 --> 1235.10] that he is quite celebrated |
[1235.10 --> 1236.38] for in the Bible. |
[1237.28 --> 1237.88] Numbers 12, |
[1237.94 --> 1238.38] verse 3 |
[1238.38 --> 1239.14] says this. |
[1239.34 --> 1239.52] It says, |
[1239.72 --> 1241.72] Moses was a very humble man, |
[1241.86 --> 1242.82] more humble |
[1242.82 --> 1244.02] than anyone |
[1244.02 --> 1245.28] else |
[1245.28 --> 1246.16] on the face |
[1246.16 --> 1247.20] of the earth. |
[1248.12 --> 1248.80] Isn't that something? |
[1248.86 --> 1249.50] That's quite a thing |
[1249.50 --> 1250.68] to be remembered for. |
[1252.00 --> 1252.54] Now keep in mind, |
[1252.60 --> 1253.58] Moses wrote numbers, |
[1253.72 --> 1254.18] so like, |
[1254.24 --> 1255.36] it's a little bit awkward |
[1255.36 --> 1256.36] to write that about yourself, |
[1256.52 --> 1257.74] but it's a little grain of salt. |
[1257.82 --> 1258.52] No, I'm kidding, of course. |
[1258.74 --> 1259.96] We can take that as truth, |
[1260.04 --> 1261.28] that Moses was |
[1261.28 --> 1262.02] humble. |
[1262.54 --> 1263.36] He was content, |
[1263.36 --> 1264.50] he was meek, |
[1265.30 --> 1266.54] and he was far from the man |
[1266.54 --> 1267.88] he was earlier in his life, |
[1268.78 --> 1269.54] when he was powerful |
[1269.54 --> 1270.38] and educated |
[1270.38 --> 1271.58] and he had means |
[1271.58 --> 1272.74] and a position of authority |
[1272.74 --> 1274.02] and had ultimate access |
[1274.02 --> 1274.56] to Pharaoh. |
[1276.00 --> 1276.76] In fact, |
[1277.06 --> 1279.04] if this were anybody else's plan |
[1279.04 --> 1279.72] other than God's, |
[1279.72 --> 1280.44] you would have thought |
[1280.44 --> 1282.02] that Moses would have been |
[1282.02 --> 1282.80] approached earlier |
[1282.80 --> 1284.36] when he had access to Pharaoh, |
[1284.42 --> 1285.18] when he had means |
[1285.18 --> 1286.08] and he had authority |
[1286.08 --> 1287.28] and he had all this power. |
[1288.32 --> 1289.48] To the human mind, |
[1289.54 --> 1290.86] that makes the most sense. |
[1291.86 --> 1293.04] That's how we function. |
[1294.24 --> 1295.18] But this wasn't |
[1295.18 --> 1296.18] someone else's plan, |
[1296.24 --> 1297.08] this was God's plan. |
[1297.20 --> 1297.86] God was patient. |
[1298.38 --> 1298.84] He waited. |
[1299.92 --> 1301.62] God waited until Moses had fled |
[1301.62 --> 1303.00] and he was a fugitive |
[1303.00 --> 1304.50] and he tended sheep |
[1304.50 --> 1305.86] for 40 years in Midian |
[1305.86 --> 1306.94] in the middle of nowhere |
[1306.94 --> 1308.24] because God needed Moses |
[1308.24 --> 1309.68] to stop being the brash, |
[1310.24 --> 1310.88] know-it-all, |
[1311.34 --> 1312.98] fix things on his own man |
[1312.98 --> 1313.72] he once was |
[1313.72 --> 1314.94] because apparently |
[1314.94 --> 1315.78] all that ever led Moses |
[1315.78 --> 1316.98] to do was murder someone. |
