Exodus 14:13-14 Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
Great chapter, if you haven’t read it before or if you haven’t read in a long time, you’ve got to read it. Great stuff. Leading up to these two verses, the Children of Israel found themselves standing in front of the Red Sea and behind them was the mighty Egyptian army. To them death seemed inevitable. But God had other plans.
You may feel just like how the Children of Israel felt back then; doomed, scared, sense of panic, etc. But God has a plan. I love what Moses said, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” And God did. He parted the Red Sea which allowed the Children of Israel walked though it and escape the Egyptian army. Not only that, the entire Egyptian army was killed when they tried to follow. The Red Sea basically swallowed them up.
You may have a “Red Sea” in front of you and an “Egyptian Army” behind you and all hope seems lost. But remember, God can do anything. And He definitely can part the “Red Sea” for you. Trust Him. God is your Deliverer.
