….Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea (Exodus 14:15-16).
Some Christians experience a certain kind of frustration in their lives because they fail to act on the Word. They pray and try to “persuade” God to do what they are to do. For example, they want Him to change a situation He already gave us power and authority to change.
Take for example the case of Moses and the children of Israel as they were trapped between the Red Sea and Pharaoh’s advancing army. They cried out in fear. But Moses reassured them of God’s salvation and began to cry out to God to do something. However, God urgently interrupted Moses with the words we read in our opening scripture above. God said to Moses, “You do something; stretch forth your hand and divide the sea.”
In obedience, Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, spoke words, and the Red Sea parted. God’s power was activated the moment Moses acted on His instruction and spoke in faith. Until Moses did something, the miracle didn’t happen. This teaches us that unless you take action to change your circumstances, they may remain unchanged.
So, don’t seek to persuade God to act when you’re the one to exercise authority and take action according to His Word. God has already done His part by giving you His Word and the liberty to act on it. For example, He said in 1 Corinthians 2:12-13, “Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God, Which things also we speak…”
Notice the principle: You have to speak the things that have been freely given to you by God. If you don’t say it, it’ll not work. Your faith-filled words, spoken in alignment with the Word, activate His power in your life. So, speak God’s Word over your life and see His power manifest in your behalf. The blessings and results are for those who act on the Word, the doers of the Word. James 1:22, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
CONFESSION
I’m a doer of the Word, and my faith-filled words activate the power of God in my life. As I act on the Word, I experience victory, transformation, and the fullness of God’s blessings today. Hallelujah!
