And I will take you to Me for a people, and I will be to you a God; and you shall know that it is I, the Lord your God, Who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. And I will bring you into the land concerning which I lifted up My hand and swore that I would give it to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage. I am the Lord [you have the pledge of My changeless omnipotence and faithfulness]. Moses told this to the Israelites, but they refused to listen to Moses because of their impatience and anguish of spirit and because of their cruel bondage. (Exodus 6:7-9)
We may not be able to do anything about our external circumstances (“cruel bondage”), but can make sure that we are addressing what we can control. Both “impatience and anguish of spirit” are internal attitudes that we can change.
If we don’t remove these impediments, we will not be able to hear the message God is trying to speak to give us encouragement.
