Exodus 4:26 - Additional Comments

God had many things to do in Moses' life before Moses was ready to lead God's people. He spent 40 years away from the other Hebrews in Midian, He showed Moses by threat of death that he was to obey God in all things (like the circumcision of his son), and God had to show Moses that He is in control of speech and circumstances, in Aaron because Moses wouldn't do it. Moses had to see God working in big ways before he would become the leader God meant him to be. May we not be so reluctant, and go when He calls, knowing God's power to work.
