Who Made You Ruler?


Exodus 2:14 (New International Version)


 14 The man said, "Who made you ruler and judge over us? Are you thinking of killing me as you killed the Egyptian?" Then Moses was afraid and thought, "What I did must have become known."
Moses decided to defend two Hebrew men from an Egyptian.  He acted on his own, without the great "I AM" sending him.  His lack of authority and weakness was quickly revealed by the question, "Who made you ruler and judge over us?"
It was a different Moses that would ask God, "Who will I say sent me?" This time God sent him and it made all the difference.
