Vivimos en un mundo obsesionado con la estrategia: planes, sistemas y resultados medibles. Las iglesias no son la excepción. Pero antes de que la iglesia tuviera un programa, tenía una promesa. Antes de tener una estrategia, tuvo que esperar. Y antes de actuar, recibió poder. Si nos apresuramos sin lo que Jesús dijo que más necesitamos, puede que estemos ocupados, pero no seremos eficaces.
We live in a world obsessed with strategy—plans, systems, and measurable outcomes. Churches are no different. But before the church ever had a program, it had a promise. Before it had a strategy, it had to wait. And before it moved, it received power. If we rush ahead without what Jesus said we need most, we may be busy—but we won’t be effective.
Where do we go from here? Jesus’ resurrection victory unleashes man-fearing, defeated disciples to become an unstoppable disciple-maker-multiplying community for all nations and all generations.
God’s people walk by faith not by sight. To guide us, this faith has to be more than a statement printed on a piece of paper. Our faith is a faith that must be confessed and lived out. In these chapters, Moses displays the heart of our confession of faith in one God who deserves to be loved and served in an uncompromising way.
Life restoration is part of God’s plan in sanctification. In his grace, God picks up the broken pieces of our lives when we repent from sin and turns our brokenness into a trophy of his grace. In this last message on Exodus, we will see God giving Israel a second chance in spite of their unfaithfulness, not because of what they had done for God, but in spite of it.
