TODAY IS THE DAY!!! (1195 hits)


TODAY IS THE DAY!!!!

Exodus 14:10-14:

"As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians, marching after them. They were terrified and cried out to the Lord. 11) They said to Moses, "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the desert to die? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt? 12) Didn't we say to you in Egypt, 'Leave us alone; let us serve the Egyptians'? It would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert! " 13) 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. 14) The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still." (NIV)

Are you in need of a TODAY miracle???? Do you feel like time is against you? Well, Exodus 14:10-14 helps us understand that GOD is a GOD of 'today' !!!

10) "And when Pharoah drew near....."

Pharoah was the oppressor who kept the children of GOD in bondage. What situation in your life is making you feel like there is no way out AND it just keeps intensifying?

"....and the Isrealites were EXCEEDINGLY frightened and cried out to the LORD." (AMP)

Fear made them cry out to GOD. Is the problem or situation in your life SO overwelming that fear has settled in your heart?

11) They said to Moses, "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the desert to die? "What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt? 12) Didn't we say to you in Egypt, 'Leave us alone; let us serve the Egyptians'? It would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert! " (NIV)

When fear sets in your heart, you begin to doubt GODS' Wisdom, His Power, and His Faithfulness. You begin to complain about His plans and purposes. His way of bringing you out of a life of "captivity and hopelessness" into a life of "freedom and abundance". Let me add, the transformation is DIFFICULT, yet, rewarding.

13) Moses told the people, "FEAR NOT; stand still (firm, confident, undismayed) and see the salvation of the LORD which He will work for you today. For the Egyptians you have seen today you shall never see again." (AMP)

What did Moses tell the people after they had their little pity party? DO NOT BE AFRAID!!! But, to stand firm in their faith, be confident in GOD'S Power, and be undismayed by their situation. For GOD promises He will deliver us. And what does the Word of GOD say when this will happen for? TODAY.

14) "The LORD will fight for you...."

This Pharoah (battle, problem, trial) you are facing, GOD will fight it for you. So stand still and let Him be LORD of your life and see the salvation of the LORD.

When you look (focus on) your situation, your problem (your enemy). You will become afraid. And when fear settles in your spirit, you may cry out to GOD. But, its really not effective because fear has replaced faith. From the scriptures you see the Isrealites cried out to GOD, but in the next breathe they began complaining and doubting. ALL BECAUSE OF FEAR.

You see, fear is the number 1 enemy of faith. Don't allow it to rob you of faith's benefits. It's easier to settle for what you are already used to doing. That doesn't take much faith. Faith ushers you into thee unknown. The key is to have 'NO FEAR', but to trust and rely on GOD and not yourself. And become confident in what GOD promises.

We all have, are, or will be facing a Pharoah behind us and a Red Sea in front of us. So step aside and watch what the LORD will accomplish in your life. That problem or situation (that enemy) that GOD is going to fight and set you free from, you will 'NEVER' have to fight or face again.
