MOSES
GOD’S PEOPLE ARE
SPIRITUALLY GIFTED
PART 3
Often, we step out boldly, but in
the wrong time and without God’s
guidance. In this article Colin Dye
shows through the life of Moses, how,
regardless our failures, God is always
ready to release his power through us,
in order to glorify his name.
H
ave you ever had a dream, a vision or
an ambition and desire to do something
big, and strong, and good and for God?
Maybe you really believed that God was in it, but
you weren’t patient enough for God to work it
out, in his own way, and in his own timing. So you
rushed out like Moses did, and like him, you
fell flat on your face. Exodus 3:1-15 describes
God’s interaction with Moses at the burning
bush after that experience.
When we look at the remarkable workings of
God through his servants in the Old Testament, the
abilities he gives seem to divide into three categories.
There are the manifestations, the gifts of
revelation, such as prophetic insight and
understanding. Then there are gifts of wisdom.

Sometimes it works out slowly in a man’s life like
Jacob, who had to learn the ways of God and
develop wisdom through the hard knocks of life.
Or like with Solomon who prayed to God for a
wise and understanding heart, and he got it.
Firstly, revelation, secondly, wisdom, thirdly, power.
This is where Moses comes in. Supernatural power is
the ability to do extraordinary things – unusual signs,
wonders and miracles. When we look at Moses’
life we see this gift in action all the way through the
plagues in Egypt, the crossing of the Red Sea and
all the miracles that happened
