Be Silent and Trust

7/8/2014

"And Moses said to the people, 'Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today.  For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again.  The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.'" 
-Exodus 14:13-14 (ESV)
Sometimes we may be faced with a problem or predicament.  Sometimes we try to figure things out on our own.  We try to fix things or make them better without calling on God for His help.  When we try to do things on our own, we can end up making things worse or losing our faith in God's works!

The Israelite people were following Moses out of Egypt and many were losing faith in the promise of deliverance from slavery.  Moses told them to be silent and allow the Lord to fight for them.  The people needed to believe in the works that they have seen and will see from God and not fear their troubles.  

We can learn from the lessons of Moses and the Israelites.  When facing our own troubles, we can begin by asking for God's help.  After we ask, we need to be silent, believe in God's power, and allow Him to fight for us.  He can help us through all of our troubles and trials!

Ask for help, then stand firm, fear not, and silently wait for God to deliver you!

Prayer:  
Dear God-
Thank You for Your promises to me.  Help me to listen to Your promises and to continue to believe in You through all things.  Please allow me to be silent when I need to be so that You can take my troubles and trials and fight my battles for me.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
