“Arise, arise that which lay dormant in thee. Rise from beneath the shadows, arise to the Lord’s summonsing that which lay dormant. The Lord calleth thee,” rehearsed within my spirit yesterday morning.

 It’s easy to fall into a rut of despair. I sat quietly, listening to what God had to say. There is tension in the atmosphere. We are on the verge of something spectacular. However, we must shed things of our fleshly nature and shake loose the old, rugged garment of self-will to step into God’s glory.

We are experiencing a shaking, calling us to step out of our comfort zones and draw near to God. If we don’t, we will get lost in the shaking. Hebrews 12:27, “And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.” I refuse to settle where God cannot reach me or influence my life. To remain unshaken by His word would lead to stagnation, much like water that becomes still and murky when it sits for too long without movement. I seek to grow and evolve, constantly embracing the changes that come my way rather than allowing myself to become stagnant and complacent.

Moses carried something within him—a purpose God intended to reveal at the right time. His mother, recognizing the divine destiny of her son, instilled within him the seeds of God’s promises, nurturing his spirit with hope and faith. Exodus 2:1 (Read Exodus 2:1–10)

As he grew up, the weight of that calling became undeniable, and he could no longer stand back watching the Egyptians punish Hebrew enslaved people.

In a moment of divine intervention, God sought him out in the solitude of the desert, a place where he had retreated to escape his past. He chose that desolate landscape as the backdrop for a transformative encounter that would change the course of a nation.

God’s will is not always easy. God summonsed what lay dormant in Moses’ life.

“Arise, arise that which lay dormant in thee. Rise from beneath the shadows, arise to the Lord’s summonsing that which lay dormant. The Lord calleth thee,”

What is God asking of you?
