Listen from:
“Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb” (Ex. 3:11Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. (Exodus 3:1)).
Moses thought that when he had spent forty years in Egypt, he was fitted to deliver the people of God, but he had to learn that not until he had been taught of God in the wilderness was he competent to lead the people out of Egypt. God has generally to put souls through a sieve and break them down in their own conceit, if He is going to use them in a really honorable way.
