It is without a doubt that this year has caused many to start questioning their own abilities and self confidence. Some may argue that a quarantine lifestyle and confinement is unnatural to the human spirit. This is why today’s reading will be all about the treatment of self-doubt, and how God healed Moses.
When Moses expressed his self-doubt to God by asking, “who am I?” God answered him by saying, “certainly I will be with you.” (Exodus 3:12) This is a powerful answer because it shows us that it did not matter what Moses had done, what people had said and what he was currently doing…all that mattered was the presence of God who equipped him with strength.
Challenge yourself to adopt the same attitude! Do not let the past hinder you, since what matters is whether or not God is with you now. In addition, ignore what people have said about you, because truth is based on God says and whether He is with you.
Do not let your current circumstances make you doubt yourself and your ability to do what God wants you to do. Know that with God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26)
If you want God to be with you, draw near to God and He will draw near to you. (James 4:8) We can see that Moses had drawn near to God because he had gone to the Mountain of God in Horeb. (Exodus 3:1)
Therefore, draw near to God by creating time to pray and read the Bible. Ensure that you do what His Word says since He promises us that, “You will seek me and find me if you seek Me with your whole heart. (Jeremiah 29:13)

I like this part where you said:
“This is a powerful answer because it shows us that it did not matter what Moses had done, what people had said, and what he was currently doing…all that mattered was the presence of God who equipped him with strength.”
This is surely the only thing that a believer really needs to remove the self-doubt. Great post indeed!
