(Exodus 14:21 NKJV) Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided.
God led the Israelites to the shore of the Red Sea. The Egyptians were in hot pursuit. There was nowhere to run or hide as they faced the sea.
God instructed Moses to stretch his hand out over the sea. So Moses did this and then God began to move.
Take notice that God caused the waters of the Red Sea to part, to divide, but it didn’t happen instantly. It took all night long!
The Israelites had to wait there on the shore of the sea all night, while God caused a strong east wind to blow and divide the waters.
What about us? Are any of us feeling like our backs are against the wall right now? Are we standing on the shore waiting for God to part the sea?
Take heart! Know that God will move on our behalf, but it almost never happens when we think it should!
We all need to trust in Him alone. We need to stop trying to make sense of every little thing that happens and stop trying to figure it all out! All of these things will cause us to question God and bring doubt and fear into our lives. Neither of these is from God, but from our enemy, the devil.
Let’s dig down deep and let God test our faith, and see what we’re really made of! It may not always be comfortable, but it is the best thing for us!
