God said, "Will the hand of God then be seen to be lacking? Now you will see if My word will be fulfilled or not" (Numbers ch.11).

It should be noted that Moses didn't doubt God's ability in the simple sense. In the very next chapter, God gives Moses the highest of praise, clearly indicating that Moses hadn't doubted Him.

Rather, Moses doubted God's willingness to perform an open miracle for the entire nation. Food can almost always be procured by one natural means or another (the Israelites had plenty of livestock, as evidenced in Numbers ch.32); and it is a general rule that God isn't quick to abrogate the natural laws which He Himself had created. Besides, the Israelites had manna to eat; so the grumbling about meat was not a matter of survival.

How did Moses became prince of Egypt?

Moses was born to a family of Israelites in a time when the Pharoah of Egypt had ordered every Israelite baby boy to be killed. To save him, Moses's mother and sister Miriam wove a basket, put Moses in, and sent it down the Nile. Miriam followed the basket until it was carried by the Nile into the Pharoah's palace. There, a princess found the boy, and loved him instantly. After this point there are two variations of the tale. The first is that the Princess already had a son (Ramases), but decided to raise Moses as well, and the second variation is that Miriam asked the Princess if she wanted someone to feed the baby. The Princess agreed and Miriam fetched her mother. The Princess asked Moses' mother to care for him until he was old enough to live in the palace with her.Not exactly. The Biblical Narritive (found in Exodus), agrees with the above answer until the suggestion that there's "two variations" of the story. The princess named the baby "Moses" herself, and allowed Miriam to take the child back to a Hebrew for rearing until he was of age (all found in Scripture). Where exactly Ramasees comes into play is a mystery.
