Daily Devotions

Are you experiencing situations that you’re absolutely powerless to manage on your own? Perhaps you’re facing vocational, physical, relational, or even financial challenges that make you feel completely helpless and you wonder, God, why have You allowed this?
No doubt the children of Israel felt the same way as they stood defenseless between the advancing Egyptian army and the impassable Red Sea. Yet the Lord had not abandoned them. Exodus 14:13 says, “And Moses said unto the people, Fear not ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.”
The Lord was teaching them a lesson they would need repeatedly as they followed Him – that their weaknesses were simply the place to display His profound power. And as they stood watching, God divided the mighty waters of the sea and allowed them to pass on dry ground.
My friend, you don’t have to feel afraid or helpless. The Lord is with you – He opens the way before you with His wise, omnipotent hand. He has allowed these circumstances for the purpose of demonstrating you can count on Him completely. So do not fear or be anxious. Obey His direction and trust Him to delver you in your time of need.
Prayer: “Lord, I’m overwhelmed by these challenges I’m face with today, but I will trust You. Thank You for showing me Your power and making a way for me, amen.”
Today, praise the Lord for His mighty power.
