to discouraged pastors does the Treasury give us today. Moses standing there, having been soundly chewed out by the foremen of the people of Israel. "O Lord, why have you done this evil to your people? Why did you ever send me? For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has done evil to this people and you have not delivered your people at all."
It all seemed so pointless at that moment. Such a colossal failure and the attempt to help only brought increased sorrow.
So God pushes us to the zero point. To the point where we have no confidence left in ourselves at all. And then he cheerfully tosses our way: "Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh." Hang on to your britches, Mr. Moses, you ain't seen NOTHIN yet! His Word will not fail; it will do what He sent it to do. Glory to You, Lord Jesus! Glory to You!
