Summary
The message uses the lives of Moses and Jacob to illustrate that God's plan for an individual often requires breaking them down to achieve true readiness. Moses, despite his power and education, could not lead God's people until God humbled him through years of servitude. Similarly, the speaker advises that true spiritual maturity comes when one recognizes their own total incapability before God.

How God protected baby MosesGod guided Moses' mother to place him in the Nile River in a basket, trusting in His sovereign plan for the child.
Why we are alive todayEvery person is alive because God has a specific plan for their life, not merely due to human cleverness or medical care.
Why Moses could not serve God at age fortyMoses was educated, rich, powerful, and a great speaker in Egypt, but he lacked the essential leadership quality of humility.
The problem with many Christian leaders todayMany Christian leaders possess degrees and Bible knowledge, but God rejects them if they lack humility.
Moses kills an Egyptian and fleesMoses killed an Egyptian who was beating a Hebrew, leading him to flee Egypt and end up living as a dependent in a desert land.
Forty years of humbling in the desertGod stripped away Moses' prince mentality by making him live and work under his father-in-law for forty years to break his pride.
Moses at the burning bushAfter being thoroughly humbled, Moses felt entirely incapable of speaking or leading God's people, which made him ready for God's use.
Jacob the grabberFrom birth and throughout his life, Jacob constantly schemed and grabbed for position, birthright, and property.
God breaks Jacob's hip jointGod broke Jacob's physical strength by injuring his hip, forcing him to walk with a cane and lean upon God.
What is God trying to accomplish with man?God seeks to break human pride and self-sufficiency because those who lift up their hearts will ultimately destroy themselves.
Having the attitude of ChristBelievers must learn gentleness and humility from Christ and allow God to break them.
