[The Glory Unveiled]
14 The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.”15 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on. ( Exodus 14:14-15 )
Our word of exaltation today says we need to be still and leave our battles to God to fight for us. God sees the enemies we can’t see and the enemies we can’t fight. Indeed, there are invisible forces and seemingly invincible powers but God is Lord over them all. When David faced Goliath, he didn’t face him as one who had the power to conquer him, instead he called upon the Lord of host. He left the battle in the hands of the Almighty. When the rest of the army were crying and wailing and scared, David trusted in the LORD of glory. Moses in the texts above was so overwhelmed by the pressure from the people he was leading and the reality that had bedeviled them at that point. He didn’t know what to do as a human. And so he begun to cry out to God who is able to deliver both he and his people. God responded thus, it wasn’t a time to cry but rather a time to move forward. Sometimes when the realities of life skewed by the powers of darkness ensnare us, we still have to move on. Keep moving, don’t stop. Refuse to give the devil a reason to jubilate. Even when the battle seem lost in the sight of men, keep moving in faith. He is still God.
Prayer_Bead: Thank you Lord Jesus, in spite of all the battles that surround us. Thank you that you are still God and Lord.
