You can practically do anything spiritual, physical,
intellectual, godly and legal when God is with you. God promised to be with
Isaac in Gerar and in spite of the famine in the land, Isaac planted precious
seed in a land afflicted by drought. He reaped bountiful harvests. Please read
Genesis Chapter 26. Additionally, Isaac survived the envy of the Philistines
against him. Despite claiming wells Isaac and his herdsmen had dug up as
theirs, the Presence of God in the life of Isaac directed him and his herdsmen
to where they could dig wells with water.
God promised to be with Moses when He commissioned
Moses to go ask Pharaoh to release the children of Israel from Egypt. Please
read Exodus Chapter 3 verses 1 to 12. When Moses complained about his inability
to speak eloquently, God promised to also be with the mouth of Moses; to
instruct him on what to say. And when Moses complained further, God promised to
be with both the mouths of Moses and Aaron, the older brother of Moses. Please
read Exodus Chapter 4 verses 10 to 16.
God was with Moses at all times in all of his
negotiations with Pharaoh. Please read Exodus Chapters 3 verse 12. That
explains why Moses scored many victories against Pharaoh. The awesome Presence
of God that was always with Moses and his brother Aaron paved the way for each
of the negotiations with Pharaoh.
Moses understood the power and essence of the
presence of God in both his life and the people of Israel. That explains why
Moses insisted on having the Presence of God go with them as they journeyed to
the Promised Land. Please read Exodus Chapters 13 verses 21 to 22 and 33 verses
12 to 17.
