Moses and the burning bush! When God called Moses from the burning bush, he had a revelation to give him and a plan for his life.
As Moses began to approach, God stopped him and said before you can get close to me you must 1st remove your shoes, (Egyptian Sandals) a type of repentance and separation.
Then once he did that:
Ex 3:6 Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
(God gave him the Revelation of who he was)
Then:
Ex 3:10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
(He recieved direction and God's calling and purpose for his life)
This was all predicated upon his obedience to removing his egyptian sandals in order to get close to God.
If he wouldn't have removed his shoes, he wouldn't have recieved the revelation or God's plan for his life.
