By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned (Hebrews 11:29).
When Moses and the children of Israel were in front of the Red Sea, Moses began to pray to God for help. But God interrupted him with a command: “Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground” (Exodus 14:15-16 NIV).
God instructed Moses to act; it was a moment of action for Moses. It wasn’t time to “wait” for God to do something but for Moses to stretch out his hand over the sea and divide it, which he did, leading to the miraculous parting of the Red Sea. Imagine if Moses had started questioning, “Lord, where will the water go? It’s water; it has to flow somewhere.”
But the Bible shows us what happened to the water in a song of praise sung by Moses and the Israelites after their miraculous deliverance from the Egyptians at the Red Sea. The waters piled up; it stood up like a wall: “By the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up. The surging waters stood up like a wall; the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea” (Exodus 15:8 NIV).
When you believe, don’t ask too many questions; act! Act on the Word. When doubts arise, shake them off and declare, “All things are possible to me because I believe.” Speak God’s truths. Utter words of faith—words inspired in you by the Holy Spirit—and watch God move. Faith is a leap on the Word; you take your step on the basis of what God has said and refuse to be moved by contrary and opposing circumstances. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that builds my faith and strengthens my spirit. I refuse to be moved by circumstances, for I walk by faith, not by sight. With the power of the Holy Spirit, I subdue the forces and elements of this world; I’m triumphant always and in every place, impacting my world with the blessings of the Gospel of Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
