When faced with difficult situations do we stand still and wait or do we move? That will depend on what God says. He has perfect timing. We must discern that timing in order to be obedient.

Impossible odds were facing the children of Israel. They were at a place that they had no choice except to stand still. They couldn’t go forward and they couldn’t go back. The enemy was closing in fast. Fear gripped them as they stood there in the sun. Some of them began to complain and wanted to return to bondage. No one could have imagined what God was about to do to deliver them.

We are often the same way. Sometimes we face a sea one way and the enemy is closing in fast. It is time for God to make a bold move on our behalf. We cannot see how God is going to work out our problems, but he will open the sea if we trust and not fear.

Exodus 14:13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.

I have often wondered what would have happened to the children of Israel, if they had not moved when the sea parted. Sometimes God gives us opportunities to get out of situations and we stand still. The sea is parted and the land is dry, yet we stand staring at the enemy in fear. We cannot see the deliverance when we are focused of the fear.

The enemy loves to cause us to have fear. Which is false evidence appearing real or lies that sound like truth that will cause us to fall, if we don’t trust. Their freedom depended on their ability to move away from the fear caused by the enemy. Their freedom depended on their trust in God and their ability to move at the right time.

As children of God, we must pray to know when to move and when to stand still. Moses told them to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. They had to wait on God to part the water. We often have to stand still and wait on God’s timing. However, there came a time that God parted the water.

He did his part, but the enemy would have over taken them if they had not moved. Knowing when to move is crucial to our spiritual walk. It takes time to learn when to stand and when to move. We have to be led by the Holy Ghost. He will lead us into all truth and righteousness. The word is a lamp unto our feet and a light for our path. But God’s Spirit will lead us on that path.

God cannot destroy our enemy in the sea, if we are in his way. Praying to be led by the Spirit is something we must pray daily. Look at Lot, God told him he could not destroy Sodom and Gomorrah until he was gone.

God will not be able to deliver us in our times of enemy attack if we allow Fear to paralyze us. Having courage to move, when we hear God say the word, is what will see us through.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
