Exodus 4:19-20 (NIV) Now the Lord had said to Moses in Midian, “Go back to Egypt, for all the men who wanted to kill you are dead.” So Moses took his wife and sons…and he took the staff of God in his hand.
“By yielding to God, the shepherd’s lowly rod became ‘the rod of God’—a rod of authority and power greater than that of the scepter of Egypt. Whenever Moses raised the rod of God in power, he also raised the memory of his humble status in the backside of the Midian desert.”* When you get to the second half of life, values will be very different. Life lessons will have been forged in the crucible of tough times. If you’ve learned your lessons well, you will have a “rod of God” of sorts that you can raise in intercessory prayer over the enemy’s strongholds. If you’ve learned your lessons in the Holy Spirit’s classroom of life, you will operate at a higher level of spiritual authority than you’ve ever known, and God will use you in supernatural ways to influence in wider ways than you thought possible. Learn your lessons of humility and obedience.
