Exodus 14:13-14 (NLT) 14:13 But Moses told the people, “Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today will never be seen again. 14 The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”
The Israelites found themselves in a hard place. They had followed the Lord’s leading and we’re now being pursued by the Egyptians. Isn’t it interesting that we as we follow God – that… He often leads us in places we don’t want to be or around people we don’t want to be around. Their faith was under fire. Did we hear God or not? Can we trust God or not? Does He have our best interest in mind? Moses, seeing their lack of faith said to them – “Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. He then says, “Just stay calm.” Do you find yourselves in a situation that has your back against the wall? Do you feel overwhelmed or in a place of hopelessness. We need this message. Our hearts need to be reminded that God is still in control. We need to be reminded to just stay calm. I believe that this is one of the works of the Holy Spirit. He is called to come along side us and remind us that as we follow God, even though it might be tough – God will see us through.
