Initially, Moses didn't demonstrate faith by giving all kinds of excuses why he couldn't do what was asked. But after much persuasion from God he went ahead with the task albeit under duress. God doesn't mind so much if we are afraid to do something, unless we let the fear keep us from obeying. It is human natuire to be afraid at times, but we must not let us keep from obeying God. He can give us all the ability and wisdom we need for each task, but we have to step out and obey no matter what we are feeling. I think of when Moses was asked to cross the Red Sea with the Israelities. He didn't hesitate as he had before but went ahead and obeyed what God told him to do. So you can see the change in his attitude. That is the point of obeying, we learn to trust God more and more in different kinds of circumstances, if we will remember what he has done for us in the past.

Moses, the greatest of all the prophets (Numbers ch.12), was a man of superlative faith in God.
Answer 2
Moses generally had immense faith in God, which can be demonstrated by the incredible courage it would have taken to break Pharaoh's will and to lead the stubborn Israelites to the Promised Land. However, it depends on the actual instance as to whether he showed faith. There are two major instances where he does not. The first is when God orders Moses to go Pharaoh to petition for the release of the Israelites in Egypt and Moses claims that he cannot and wishes for someone else to do the task (Exodus 3:1-4:17). The second is when God commanded Moses to speak to a rock so that it would release water for the thirsty Israelites, but Moses strikes the rock. God explicitly reprimands this lack of trust (Numbers 20:1-13).

How Moses make people follow god?
through the power of God no duhhh Answer When Moses was brought up by the Egyptions he was taught about their false God's. If you remember he was brought up by his mother who was hired to look after him. It was she who would have taught him about God. He was only able to teach the the people, he could not make them believe, he had to leave that up to the individual to seek out this spoken of god by prayer and fasting. One must also remember that the people of Moses, were for the most, believers in God, even after being slaves to the Egyptions for many years their faith never wavered. Moses problem was really to turn those who had lost their faith back to God.
How might the Exodus story strengthen a believers faith in God?
I would say that the largest reason would be because of Moses, He had such strong faith, and he was guided so much by God, God communicated with him directly and it was amazing. Also even though Moses had his short falls and doubts, he kept getting back up and follow God even if it seemed nuts.
How does Moses anger God at Kadesh?

How does God use Moses to better the relationship between God and Israel?
Defintion of believing: One of your five senses aquires knowledge and you decide it to be true to the point of doing. Definition of faith: None of your five senses aquire knowledge yet you know it to be truth. There was no faith before Chirst rose from the dead. Moses believed everything God said to him and did what he was told to do. He obeyed God always. God was able to bless Israel because of Moses' belief in God and in His word. When Israel fled and came to the Red Sea Moses asked God for help. God told him to raise his arms and hold them up. Moses believed what God said and did it and thusly Israel was able to pass the Red Sea. After the people witnessed this miracle they praised God, which pleased God and bettered their relationship. "The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." (James 5:16)
