🔥 《The Voice in the Fire: Moses and the Burning Bush》

— A Literary Devotional Narrative in English

The desert had become home.
Rugged hills.
Endless silence.
Sheep instead of servants.
Dust instead of gold.

Moses—once a prince,
now a wanderer.

He had buried his ambition.
Buried his anger.
Buried his past.

---

He thought God was finished with him.
But God was just getting started.

---

One morning,
as Moses led the sheep toward Mount Horeb,
he saw it.

A bush on fire—
yet not consumed.

It flickered,
but it did not fall.

Moses turned aside.

“I must go see this strange sight.
Why doesn’t it burn up?”

And then—
a voice.

---

“Moses, Moses.”

He froze.
It wasn’t the wind.
It wasn’t his mind.

It was holy.

---

“Here I am,” he said.

And the voice replied:

“Do not come any closer.
Take off your sandals,
for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

---

God introduced Himself not as a stranger,
but as a storyteller:

“I am the God of your father,
the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”

Moses hid his face.
He was afraid to look at God.

Then the voice continued:

“I have seen the misery of My people.
I have heard their cries.
I know their suffering.
And I have come down to rescue them.”

---

And then the unthinkable:

“So now, go.
I am sending you to Pharaoh
to bring My people out of Egypt.”

---

Moses stepped back.

“Who am I,
that I should go to Pharaoh?”

But God didn’t list Moses’ résumé.
He simply said:

“I will be with you.”

---

And still Moses resisted.

“What if they don’t believe me?”
“I’m not a good speaker.”
“Please… send someone else.”

But God had chosen him.
Fire had found him.
And fire would lead him.

What began in fear
would end in freedom.

🙏 Five Devotional Themes from the Burning Bush

1. God Speaks in the Ordinary Made Holy

   A bush became sacred when God’s presence filled it. What ordinary moment is God turning into holy ground in your life?

2. Your Past Does Not Disqualify You

   Moses fled Egypt, but God still called him. What parts of your past might God want to redeem, not erase?

3. God Hears the Cries Others Ignore

   “I have heard their cries.” Where is God asking you to join Him in responding to injustice?

4. God's Call Comes With God's Presence

   “I will be with you.” Are you measuring your call by your strength—or His nearness?

5. Excuses Fade in the Face of God’s Assignment

   Moses offered many reasons to say no. What excuse might you need to lay down to say yes to God's calling?
