God's Plan, Wrong Timing: The Story of Moses

Jun 12, 2026    Pastor Robert R. McLaughlin

What happens when God's plan for your life is clear, but His timing is not?


In this study, we examine the life of Moses and discover one of the greatest lessons in the spiritual life: knowing God's will is not enough—we must also learn to wait for God's timing.


Moses was a genius, a prince of Egypt, and a man who knew he had a calling from God. Yet when he attempted to fulfill that calling through human strength, human wisdom, and human timing, he failed. It would take another 40 years in the wilderness before God would prepare him to become the deliverer of Israel.


This message reveals the difference between human ability and divine power, between self-effort and God's provision, and between rushing ahead of God and resting in His perfect plan.


If you have ever wondered why God seems to delay His promises, why doors have not yet opened, or why your personal sense of destiny feels out of reach, the life of Moses provides a powerful answer.


God's plan is never fulfilled through human strength. It is fulfilled through His power, in His timing, for His glory.


"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding." — Proverbs 3:5


Join us as we learn how God's timing always supersedes man's timing and how His preparation is often greater than we can imagine.
