The Lord will fight for you today
There have been times in my life where I have been looking in every direction trying to find answers to the pressures upon me. Almost in a panic .... how did I get myself in such a mess?? Will I ever find a way out???
In Exodus 14:13 (NIV) God tells the Israelites, the ones He had just rescued from 400 years of slavery, to "Stand firm". You see they were panicking when they saw the army of Egypt closing in on them. In their fear they forgot what God had already done for them .... Freed them from the slavery they got themselves into for 400 years .... how do you forget that, ever????
All it takes is another storm, a little fear and how quickly we turn back to our own ways ... forgetting what God has already done.

In that same verse Moses says to the people "Do not be afraid" ..."you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today" .... "The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still"
That exposes the problems I have "being still, trusting, remembering and letting the Lord be in the lead".
Through Jesus the battle is already won, I am no longer a slave to the sins I have committed. Jesus paid the price to free me, He gave himself for me. I need to Stand Firm, Let Him go before me, Trust Him and be still in Him ... look & listen for His guidance.
