A giant is anything that stands between you and where God wants you to be

Moses began with His Own Perspective

He had been trained to look at things from the world’s point of view all of his life.

“Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and deeds” Acts 7:22

As great a man as Moses was, those strengths were also his weaknesses

The giant was Egypt and he was a part of it

Moses Became Aware of God’s Perspective

Something happened when Moses turned forty that caused him to turn his eyes away from himself to God’s people.

“It came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren” Exodus 2:11

We must learn to fight God’s battles God’s way.

Israel was told to take the city of Jericho. They would take it by shouting rather than with swords and spears

Gideon was to take on the Midianites. God told him to do it with three hundred men with pitchers and trumpets.

David would face Goliath but he would do it with a sling, five stones, and God.

It’s our way or God’s way

We must learn to fight God’s battles in God’s time.

God was calling Moses to deliver His people but the time had not yet come.

He was in a hurry to see things happen. God’s ways and God’s timing are important!

Moses Need to Look Higher

Moses Had to Look Beyond the Giants

We are far too often focused on the giant we are fighting against rather than the God we are fighting for.

Moses was taught two lessons we all need to learn.

First, he learned the lesson of submission.

Secondly, he learned the lesson of being attentive to God.

You see there are times that God is talking to us but we never hear Him because we keep talking

Moses learned three great truths about God that turns us into giant killers:

God always hears and sees. Exodus 2:23-25

God knows where you are all the time. Exodus 3:1-4

We need to focus on who God is. Exodus 3:5-15

The Challenge

Remember a giant is anything that stands between you and where God wants you to be. Whatever is standing in your way – look beyond it. Look a little higher and remember Who God is and what He has promised.
