Exodus 3:9-12 (ESV)

Originally published 01/26/2015

God said to Moses: "'And now behold, the cry of the people of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. Come, I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.' But Moses said to God, 'Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?' He said, ’But I will be with you, and this shall be the sign for you, that I have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain'" Exodus 3:9-12 (ESV). Everything that God asks us to do is impossible for us unless God is with us. But he never asks us to do anything without him. Lord, remind me of your promise to be with me in everything you ask of me, even though I might not see the sign that you were with me immediately.
