Who Will Be My Moses in 2026?” (Exodus 3)

During my devotion this morning, I was led to Exodus 3. But when I reached verse 10, something in my spirit stopped. It was as if God Himself whispered, “Who will be My Moses in 2026?” I encourage you to read the chapter for yourself, because this is more than a familiar Bible story—it is a present-day summons.

Our media is filled with reports of what’s happening around the world. That’s their job: to report events—good, bad, or indifferent. But events don’t just appear out of thin air. They are the result of choices, actions, and systems shaped by people. And just as true, the faithful, courageous, non‑violent actions of a few can shift the direction of many.

When we look at the condition of the Israelites in Exodus 3, we can see a reflection of the world we’re living in today. It is painful to watch our brothers and sisters suffer, to see lives torn apart, and to witness oppression in so many forms. And so, the question rises again: Who will be the Moses in 2026?

The Israelites were oppressed and enslaved under Pharaoh, yet they continued to grow in number and resilience. They didn’t like their condition, but there was still a remnant who believed in a Sovereign and Almighty God. They understood that waiting on God often involves time, tears, and persistent prayer. And when God decided He had heard enough of Pharaoh’s foolishness, He called a man named Moses.

God captured Moses’ attention through a burning bush—a fire that burned but was not consumed. That alone is a message all by itself. God knows how to interrupt our routine when He’s ready to reveal our assignment. Israel was in bondage, and God declared it was time for His people to be free. But bondage is not only physical. Bondage can be emotional, mental, spiritual, generational, or systemic. It can be a mindset as much as a circumstance.

So, the question becomes personal: Is God calling you to be His Moses in 2026?

A Moses is not defined by perfection, eloquence, or confidence. A Moses is defined by obedience, compassion, and a willingness to say “yes” when God says “go.” God still raises deliverers—people who will stand in the gap, speak truth, confront injustice, and lead others toward freedom.

Maybe your burning bush is a scripture that won’t let you go. Maybe it’s a burden that keeps resurfacing. Maybe it’s a holy discomfort that tells you, “You can’t stay where you are.”

Whatever it is, pay attention. God still calls. God still sends. And God still asks, "Who will be My Moses?”

For His Glory…
