Failure shows up in everyone's life at one time or another. A broken relationship. An unfulfilled dream. A moment you acted on impulse instead of trusting God.

Moses knew that story well. He killed a man, was rejected by his own people, and spent the next forty years running — from a prince in Pharaoh's palace to a shepherd in the wilderness of Midian. By every human measure, his first attempt at leading was a failure.

But God doesn't waste our failures. He uses them.

In this message, we trace Moses' journey from the palace to the desert to the burning bush, and discover that failure isn't a reflection of our worth or our relationship with God — it's often the very place He does His deepest refining work. God chooses imperfect people, refines them before He uses them, and remembers His promises even when everything looks hopeless.

What looks like an ending in your life may be exactly where God is starting something new.
