1
00:00:02,570 --> 00:00:08,630
In Deuteronomy 34, 7 we read, And Moses

2
00:00:08,630 --> 00:00:12,270
was a hundred and twenty years old when

3
00:00:12,270 --> 00:00:13,050
he died.

4
00:00:13,530 --> 00:00:16,550
His eye was not dim, nor his natural

5
00:00:16,550 --> 00:00:18,270
force abated.

6
00:00:18,830 --> 00:00:21,610
So Moses lived to be a hundred and

7
00:00:21,610 --> 00:00:22,830
twenty years old.

8
00:00:23,510 --> 00:00:27,730
A man's usefulness is often marked after that

9
00:00:27,730 --> 00:00:30,750
man has had an encounter with God.

10
00:00:31,049 --> 00:00:34,130
The study of the life of Moses in

11
00:00:34,130 --> 00:00:39,510
Scripture will reveal the following startling details.

12
00:00:40,350 --> 00:00:44,270
The first forty years of Moses' life in

13
00:00:44,270 --> 00:00:48,330
Egypt is covered by only fifteen verses of

14
00:00:48,330 --> 00:00:48,770
Scripture.

15
00:00:49,630 --> 00:00:53,530
The next forty years of Moses' life on

16
00:00:53,530 --> 00:00:57,790
the backside of the Midian Desert is covered

17
00:00:57,790 --> 00:01:00,830
by only ten verses of Scripture.

18
00:01:01,750 --> 00:01:05,350
But the last forty years of Moses' life

19
00:01:05,350 --> 00:01:09,730
after his encounter with God is covered by

20
00:01:09,730 --> 00:01:15,330
approximately 4,252 verses of Scripture.

21
00:01:16,190 --> 00:01:20,870
Surely this clearly demonstrates that the significance of

22
00:01:20,870 --> 00:01:25,270
a life begins after an ordinary man has

23
00:01:25,270 --> 00:01:28,530
had an extraordinary experience of God.

24
00:01:28,910 --> 00:01:32,350
And from that point forward, his life is

25
00:01:32,350 --> 00:01:34,010
never the same again.
