Answering God's Call

Take 2-3 minutes to quiet yourself and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.  

Reading: Exodus 3

Be sure to highlight or note anything that stands out to you while you read.  
After reading the passage, take the next 5-10 minutes and spend time reflecting on what you read. You can write these things down in a journal or record them in your phone. Be attentive to both what you highlighted in the passage and what is going on in your life.

Moses’ encounter with God at the burning bush reminds us that God often calls us to tasks that seem beyond our capabilities. Like Moses, we may feel inadequate or unworthy. Yet God's response, "I will be with you," is a timeless promise He extends to all His children.
God doesn’t expect us to accomplish His purposes in our own strength—He provides the ability, the direction, and the power. When we focus on our weaknesses, we forget that the One who calls us also equips us.

Is there something God is calling you to step into? What fears or insecurities hold you back? Remember, God doesn’t call the equipped; He equips the called.


Now, take 10 minutes to seek God in prayer…  
  1. Begin your time in prayer by taking 1-3 minutes to sit in silence (You can take longer if you sense the Spirit already beginning to speak to you).  
  2. Pray through the things you sensed God speaking to you through the Scriptures or pray the following prayer: Lord, help me trust that You are with me in every calling You place on my life. Give me the courage to step out in faith, knowing that Your presence and power will sustain me.
  3. Close by taking 5 minutes to sit in silence, asking God if there is anything else He wants to speak to you today.  

Take Action:
  1. Identify one area in your life where you sense God calling you to step out in faith. Write it down and pray over it.
  2. Take one small step toward obedience today—whether it’s starting a conversation, committing to prayer, or seeking wise counsel.
