Personal Study - Improving my vision and hearing using Scripture

To see the abundance of God and his blessings - not 5 loaves and 2 small fish
To hear like little Samuel - the voice of God when He speaks
To see God standing during the darkness of a storm - Like Paul - Lord stood by me 
To see a victory and not a giant like the shepherd boy David

Exodus 3 King James Version (KJV)

Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.

And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.

And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt.

And when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.

And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.

Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.

And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;

And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.

10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.

11 And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?

12 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.


Moses sees a great sight, a burning bush not burnt
Moses heard the voice of God
See and hear what God sees - the afflictions and cry
Moses hid his face from God

What does God look like.
NOT THE IMAGE GOD CAST ON THE WORLD -  BUT WHAT IMAGE WE CAST ON THE WORLD

Gods sees Moses Parents, their faith, their determination, their defiance, their determination
God sees Moses upbringing, his training, his own failures, murder
God now sees Moses physical condition
God hears his excuses, his unwillingness, his lack of self-
esteem

IN TODAY' S WORLD -  We see....
Christians being put to death because of their faith
Brutal Killings in Sudan, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Charlottesville

WE DON'T SEE GOD AT WORK, ON THE JOB-  WHERE IS GOD?  -  WASHINGTON SLEEP.

IS THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC, JACOB, GOD OF MOSES, GOD OF PAUL SLEEP.

And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people

 And I am come down to deliver them

 12 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee
THAT I HAVE SENT THEE

GOD IS LOOKING FOR A TOKEN - TO GO

WHY IT IS TAKING SO LONG
Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me
12 And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee:
 When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
