Exodus 14:13-14
Crossing the Sea
13 Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. 14 The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still."
Dear friend,
Imagine you're an Israelite having just been led out of persecution under the Egyptians. You flee the land and life that you know hoping to be delivered to something better, a promised land. Then it all seems to come to an end. The Egyptian soldiers are closing in behind you and there's a sea before you. You're trapped, there's no where to go! You start to wish you would have just stayed put. And then when all hope seems lost and death is imminent an unlikely door opens.
Our lives are much like this. But do we have the courage to leave all that we know behind; our past, our sins, even old friends and possibly family, to pursue a promised land; living in God's will for our lives? Do you trust in God enough to allow Him to direct your path and provide doors when no options seem to exist? If we're "all in", we trust in God so much that we know He WILL deliver us to that sweet spot in life where He desires us to be. God is fighting for His children day in and day out. We just need to stand down, be still, and trust in Him!
In Christ,
Robert
