STEPPING OUT
Exodus 14:13-30
Devotional -“And the LORD said to Moses, "Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward” (V. 15)
Part of the virtue for creating your miracle is your ability to step out in the face of odd circumstances. Those who experience the unforgettable power of God in their career or businesses are those who have learnt to step out even when there is no ground to step on. Those who expect all factors to be completed will not be able to achieve great things (Ecclesiastics 11:4). That is why a child of God must learn to trust in God and be willing to act in obedience to God by faith.
Moses was called by God to bring the Israelites from Egypt to the land He has promised their father Abraham. At this point in time of their journey, they have overcome many hurdles. But this particular one was so terrifying. There is no one who will see this and not be scared. So, Moses in his own understanding told the Israelites to wait but God said move on. The commandment of God was for them to move on and ride on the sea. This looks impossible. As they obeyed the Lord, and Moses stretch forth his rod, God parted the sea.
Oftentimes, we also have hurdles to cross. Such time is not a time of fear but a time to ask God for what to do. (Proverbs 3:5-6). This is very important. That is why you must get used to asking Him always. Whenever God tells you what to do, then it is time to step out by faith. Remember, God spoke to Moses first. The same thing with Peter (Matthew 14:28-29). The way to creating your own testimony is by receiving His leading and stepping out by faith. This is how to experience the miraculous. Peace!
PRAYER: Lord, give me your word and the courage to step out
“STEPPING OUT IN OBEDIENCE TO GOD, COMMANDS THE SUPERNATURAL”
