I hear you crying, burning but not consumed.

Exodus 3:3-4, 3:7, 6:1

We are walking in today: I hear you crying, burning but not consumed.

I hear you crying. Burned, but not consumed. Think about the bush that got Moses' attention. God will use whatever He has to, to get your attention. Your bush is burning, but is not consuming. Your bush might be your marriage, but you are still in it. Your finances are on fire-burning, but not consuming you. Your job, children, ministry and even depression are not consuming your life. I hear you crying in your wilderness. Now that I have your attention. It's time to deliver you our of your Egypt. I hear you when you said my husband or wife still doesn't have a job--now how much longer as a woman, do I hold it down?! God says--until I say so--for better or for worse. I hear you crying, now that the bush is burning, do I have your attention now? I'm testing your faith. You thought you were going to die, burning but not consuming your walk. I had to do somethings to get your attention. Be like Moses--look to the hills which cometh your help. Knowing your help comes from the Lord. It's time to start a fire in your life. Exodus 3:4 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. God is seeing if you are paying attention, when He calls you. Exodus 3:7 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. Just in case you think God has forgotten about you, He has heard your cry and knows your sorrows. He heard your cries in 2010. He knows what the taskmasters have put on your life. Crying but not consumed. Exodus 6:1 Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land. See God will have the enemy to let you go. He will drive him into the wilderness. Don't cry, your assignment has not been canceled or consumed in the fire.
God we come to ask you to move us out of the way and increase in us Lord. God has said that He set things on fire to get your attention. You won't be consumed. He sees your tears, He is making a way our of your situation. You are telling God you need peace. You are telling God you have prayed. You are telling God you have fasted. You are telling God you have done all that God told you to do. You may feel the load is too heavy and you are crying out to the Lord. He gives peace that passes all understanding. God you told us you would not give us more than we can bear. We thank you, Lord for every trial and tribulation--You are the only one who can bring us out of Egypt, with a strong hand. We are crying out for you to deliver us. Burning, but not consumed--let go and let God. Turn it all over to Him. Cast your cares on God for He cares for you. He hears our cry for peace, rest and healing. Hold on to His word. He is breaking us to remake us-- stronger, better and wiser. Count it all joy. Burning, but not consumed. You are worthy of all the praise. You are in the midst. Look to the hills, for your help comes from the Lord. You need to know you will not die, it is for your good. God is bringing you out. God is in the fire with us. Put your eyes on Him, not your situation. Don't put your eyes on the affliction. Many are the affliction of the righteous, but the Lord delivers them out of them all.
Thank you for loving us so, you make a way of escape for us. Thank you for loving us that You won't put more on us than we can bear. Thank you for who you are. Thank you for letting us know it is for our good. Thank you for driving out Pharaoh from our lives. Whatever your Pharaoh is, He had to set something on fire to get your attention. Have a one on one with God and surrender all and ask God to know His will for your life. It is time to turn somethings over--to pray without ceasing. Seek His will, stop trying to do it yourself. We don't want to be out of your will, Lord. Go and pray to God. 'You have my attention--whatever you want me to do, I'll do it God'. The fire has been set. You won't be consumed.

We are walking in today: Burning, but not consumed.
