Whom God Calls He Qualifies

   In Moses 6:27 the Lord describes the people of Enoch’s day as having hard hearts, dull ears, and eyes that cannot see.

o   Moses 28-29

§  Gone astray, denied me, seek own counsels in the dark, devise murder, do not keep the commandments, forsworn themselves, brought upon themselves death

o   This is not a happy people

§  hard hearts= cannot feel for those around them, cannot feel the promptings of the spirit, cannot love anyone but self.

§  Dull ears= will not hear the spirit, will not hear counsel from others

§  Eyes that cannot see= can’t see needs of others, can’t see that they aren’t happy, cannot see what is right and what is wrong.

·         If the lord told you this and told you that He needed your help to make them see, and hear, and to feel again, how would you feel?

o   Me-shock, dismay, overwhelmed, How?

o   Enoch- “I am slow of speech,” (just like Moses) the people hate me, how have I found favor with Thee? Why do you want ME?

·         In Moses 6:32 we get the answer

o   Heavenly Father told Enoch- Open thy mouth and it shall be filled. God will give you what to say if you are prepared and are listening to what He wants you to say.

o   All flesh is in my hands, and I will do as seemeth me good. Moses 6:32

o   Moses 6:39- when they heard him. They stopped in their tracks and could not harm him. (v47) They could not stand in his presence as he spoke the words of God.

o   God wanted Enoch because of his Faith- He will make weak things strong, if you have faith and come unto him.

·         Because of Enoch’s faith and because he did what the Lord commanded him to do:

o   Moses 7:18

§  And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there was no poor among them.

o   Enoch (slow of speech) was the tool that God used to change these wicked people into Zion!

o   (7:69) Zion is fled

o   God can do marvelous things, He can take water and turn it into wine, He can command the earth to do his will, He can put His words into our mouths to help those around us, and He can change me.
