[The Glory Unveiled]
So Moses was educated in all the wisdom and culture of the Egyptians, and he was mighty (powerful) in his speech and deeds.
And when he was in his fortieth year, it came into his heart to visit his kinsmen the children of Israel [to help them and to care for them]. ( Acts 7:22-23 AMP)
God has a mechanism for drawing men unto Himself and for getting them to carry out spiritual tasks. Usually, God uses burdens; a feeling of discomfort and unrest in one’s soul until what is impressed upon their heart is carried out to the letter. In the verses of scripture above, we see the channel through which burdens are borne in the hearts of people. Moses was first educated in the wisdom and culture of the Egyptians, mighty in speech and deeds. So, before a burden rests in the bosom of our spirit, we need to have had knowledge or exposure of some sort in the thing that would burden us. Moses knew the ways of the Egyptians so that when God drops a burden in his heart, he could nurse it in the light of that awareness or knowledge. But the awareness or knowledge may not exactly be tangible to the one who would later carry the burden. And then the second part is that it came into his heart. After the acquaintance with the knowledge that God would burden us with, He then drops the burden in the form of a discomfort about what could be the norm of others; or a thing that others wouldn’t be so discomforted about. So that when God wants to burden us with a task, we would be given a strong desire in our hearts, one that cannot be ignored. And then we become the hand of God and the feet of God in the execution of His purposes and plans in the earth. Is God birthing a desire in your heart? Get your heart in order so that you can nurture it.
Prayer_Bead: Father I thank you for putting a burden in my heart and helping me to do what you would have me do to the praise of your name.
