And Moses said to the people,

“Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”

Exodus 14:13-14 

What are you up against? What is causing you worry?

What is coming in the future, two weeks from now, two years from now, two decades from now?

The Egyptians are at your back and the sprawling Red Sea is right before you. You seem trapped, doomed, and not in control.

Now listen to the words of Moses:

“Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord!”

God is with you in this. You are not alone.

He is going to provide a way where there is no way.

So what should you do? Get busy? Freak out? Call five people? Break down crying? Run back to the Egyptians? Run into the water? 

Nope. 

Just “be silent.” 

What? Why?

Because “The Lord will fight for you.” 

Have you considered that God is fighting for you? He is the one who will bring you through. 

Notice that God does not deliver them from the situation, but through the situation. It will be the same for you.

So keep trusting Him. Keep praying about it. And put your faith in God to bring you through it. Look to Him and take your eyes off yourself. When you do, you will find freedom in Christ!

"The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”

Grace and peace,

Pastor Harvey
