“Moses told this to the Israelites, but they refused to listen to Moses because of their impatience and anguish of spirit and because of their cruel bondage.” Ex. 6:9 (Amplified Bible)
The above verse really spoke to me deep in my heart. The bondage of the Israelites was so great that they didn’t not listen what Moses had told them. It is very important for us to understand as counselors, as teachers, as preachers, as elders, as parents that unless we build a sense of confidence in the hearts and minds of a sorrowful man/woman on ourselves we can not communicate when they are under bondage; bondage of anxiety, bondage of losing a beloved, bondage of failure in marital relationship, bondage of drugs, bondage of pornography, bondage of humiliation, bondage of sexual sins.
They will have a sense of confidence on us when they find –
- Our support
- Our listening eager ears
- Our responsive attitude
- Our empathetic hearts
- Our outstretched hands
- Our ‘coming down to their level’
- Our time and availability for them
- Our confidence in them & their ability to recover
Stay Blessed!
