[The Glory Unveiled]
And the LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. [ Exodus 14:15 NKJV ]
In our walk with God, we often become irresponsible without realizing it. We assume that because we are now children of God, we are no longer expected to labour or take responsibility. We expect God to place everything we need into our hands. But drawing near to God is not a call to passivity; it is a call to responsibility. It is a call to stewardship, obedience, and faithful service. There are seasons when life corners us. We find ourselves trapped by circumstances, overwhelmed by uncertainty, and tempted to cry, complain, and wait for God to do everything on our behalf. We long for Him to come down and rescue us, while He is waiting for us to keep moving in the direction of His last instruction. That was the situation of the Israelites. Behind them was the Egyptian army; before them was the Red Sea. Humanly speaking, there was nowhere to turn. Yet God’s command was simple: “Go forward.” Their predicament was not a signal to stop. It was not permission to surrender to fear. It was a call to continue walking in obedience despite impossible circumstances. God was not asking them to create a way through the sea. He was asking them to keep moving toward His promise while He made the way. The same is true for us today. Challenges are not an invitation to abandon our calling or neglect our responsibilities. They are opportunities to trust God’s faithfulness while pressing on in obedience. God expects us to keep moving—not in our own strength, but in the sufficiency of His grace. As we obey, He does what only He can do. Our responsibility is to go forward; His responsibility is to make a way.
