Today's Reading - Exodus 3:7-12 (NASB) Choose another translation
The LORD said, "I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and have given heed to their cry because of their taskmasters, for I am aware of their sufferings. So I have come down to deliver them from the power of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and spacious land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite.
"Now, behold, the cry of the sons of Israel has come to Me; furthermore, I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians are oppressing them. Therefore, come now, and I will send you to Pharaoh, so that you may bring My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt."
But Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt?"
And He said, "Certainly I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall worship God at this mountain."

What a reassurance Moses got from God. We know from Scripture that God is with us & where God guides he provides. God says it straight out to Moses in this case "Certainly I will be with you." What a reassurance from our Father.
Moses said "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt."
Wow... even Moses couldn't believe it.
