The Israelites came out of captivity after suffering God delivered them and promised a land flowing with milk and honey. God chose a leader Moses, to lead them. Everything was going smooth till they faced the Red Sea. Behind them was the Pharoah’s army pursuing them and before them stood the Red Sea. They were not able to get the blessings, problems followed them. They grumble to Moses. Moses asks the Lord who tells him, “ Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on” Exo 14: 15.
Do you keep thinking and talking about the problem? God is telling us to stop thinking and go forward.
When we see the story of David and Goliath, we see that David faced the giant, he did not run away. He spoke to him face to face, and challenged him for a fight. Though Goliath laughed at the little boy, he was floored to death by a single stone.
So lets see the steps that helps us to move forward.
- Face the enemy – don’t run!
- Talk to the problem and see it as the One who is in you sees it
- The problem wont come again
- The problem will become a testimony for you! God can turn a mess into a message and a test into testimony.
