Three Points That Must Be Changed
Exodus 3:18│ “The elders of Israel will listen to you. Then you and the elders are to go to the king of Egypt and say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the Lord our God.’”
Hymn #299 O Love of God Most Full (Unified Hymn 418)

The world deludes millions of people by stressing that people can become gods if they develop their inner potential. As a result, people are exposed to culture that causes stimulation and consumerism through various media. In doing so, they don’ t even notice when their hearts and minds become diseased. In this age, God wants to change three points. What are they?
1. God's Thoughts Instead of My Thoughts
Moses misunderstood and thought that it would be impossible to overcome Egypt, so he hesitated at God's call. However, God had a different idea. He revealed that the only method to lead Israel out of slavery from idols and the culture of darkness of Egypt was through the blood sacrifice. As a result, God used Moses to lead the Israelites through the Exodus.
2. God's Will Instead of My Desires
Although the Israelites came out from slavery, their harsh life in the wilderness didn’t end; instead, it continued. In the midst of that situation, God instructed them to build the Tabernacle. All you have to do in the face of works that you don’t understand is to seek God’s will. From now on, begin praying for God's will and not your own.
When it appeared that the Red Sea was blocking a clear road ahead, Moses explained the things of God to the Israelites who were complaining that it would had been better to live as slaves in Egypt, give up, and die in the wilderness. Through the Word, Moses knew God's thoughts, sought His will through prayer, and witnessed His plan of salvation. God has called you to be the Moses of this age.
Dear God, help me to relay the Gospel of true freedom and peace to those who’ve been seized by darkness and idolatry. Please guide me to firmly grab hold of Your thoughts, will, and possessions. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Is there no one who believes in God among powerful people, politicians, heads of conglomerates, and influencers in various fields?
Why are there so many people suffering from mental afflictions such as depression; panic disorders; and insomnia, living impoverished lives because of extreme addiction to alcohol or drugs, and making extreme choices to end their lives?
