Spiritual Order trumps God given Purpose

Moses was given instruction to set the people of Israel free and on his way to execute his God given assignment in Egypt the Bible states the following

At a lodging place on the way, the Lord met Moses and was about to kill him.  But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it.  “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,” she said. So the Lord let him alone. (At that time she said “bridegroom of blood,” referring to circumcision.)  Exodus 4:24-26 NIV

The moral of this story is that we can not for go spiritual order in lieu of the grand vision God has given us in our ministries or business.  God was going to kill Moses because their was a matter of personal spiritual responsibility that for what ever reason went ignored as Moses was on his way to 'save the world' as instructed by God.



A leaders personal responsibilities to God, himself, and his family should never become secondary to the vision God has given him to accomplish.
