"tHE BURNING BUSH"

Exodus 3:1-5
Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. ² There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. ³ So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up.” ⁴ When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, “Moses! Moses!”And Moses said, “Here I am.” ⁵ “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

Exodus 3:10-11
¹⁰ So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.” ¹¹ But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”

There is growth for each of us, which goes from faith to faith, from glory to glory, from presence to presence.

God is introducing each of us to the "Kabod", that is, to the highest and most extraordinary place there is.

The hungrier you are, the more you realize the more there is to experience.

Today is the time to enter the awakening, the movement of God. Where are you in your life? Are you ready to let yourself be used? You are available? God does not ask if you are capable or not because He will make you capable.

He asks for availability.

The devil fights not for where you are, but for where you are going.

There is a difference between "moment" and "movement". "Moment" means that you have reached a certain point and stopped.
But when you have a "movement", it means that your life is available to God to change. Switch from one condition to another. Go from death to life.

This is what God says about awakening.

Requirements for awakening:

1 An encounter with God.
Nothing can prepare more than a divine visitation, more than the desert. The desert is the best place to receive.

The desert is a place of solitude, where one thinks that life is about to end, where one also thinks that God is abandoning.

But instead God says "YOU ARE IN THE FINAL PART, YOU ARE READY FOR A MEETING WITH ME".

A meeting of transformation and change. We cannot free others if we ourselves are slaves.

Daniel 11:32
With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.

Those who know God will do the same works that Christ did when he was on earth: they will begin to act.

God is bringing everyone into the right position to make them change.

He is repositioning to become liberators. Through that bush, God teaches this to Moses: to face everything to go to Pharaoh.

1- To listen to his voice
2- To walk in His presence
3- To live in the supernatural.
