Do Not Be Afraid

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”.Exodus 14:13-14

Bible Reading: Exodus 14

God’s word of assurance, promise, and encouragement comes to a user of this devotional this morning because God sees what you are passing through, and what is ahead of you. Today’s word is that of comfort and when God promises, He brings it to fulfilment if we cooperate with Him. The account of the Israelites reminds us of their struggle and trouble in Egypt even though they flourished in the Land of Goshen. The triumphant exit from the land of Egypt, the miraculous crossing over the red sea, and the saving grace of the Almighty God showed God’s commitment to His children.

The only responsibility expected of you is this: Do not be afraid but hold your peace! Isn’t that amazing? How will you do this? Simply replace fear with faith. Fear is not of the Lord and anytime it comes, confront it with the word of God because faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17).

As you continue in the journey of this year, remember God’s word today that God will fight your battle for you. He will deliver you because He never fight a battle that He cannot win, and you are only to hold your peace. Choose to see that situation from the perspective of God’s word, believe Him absolutely and as you hold fast to God’s word, you will see Him work tremendously in your life. God bless you.

Self-Reflection: How much of God’s word do you know?

Action Point: Search what God says about your situation.

Daily Confession: Thank God for His word and present your situation unto God.

Intercessory prayer: Pray for faculty members of postsecondary institutions in your country

Hymn: When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,

What a glory He sheds on our way!

While we do His good will, He abides with us still,

And with all who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there’s no other way

To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
