Exodus 13:21-22 NIV “By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or by night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day not the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.”
Don’t you wish God would send you his pillar of cloud to follow safely through the day and his pillar of fire to guide you when your world looks and feels dark? Guess what? He did!
John 8:12 NIV “When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Throughout the Bible, whether in the Old Testament or the New, we see example after example of God being there for those who trust and believe in him. You have to believe it! When it all looks, feels, seems hopeless, bleak, and dark, that’s when you have to press in and believe the hardest! Prayer sets it in motion; belief keeps it moving!
Exodus 14:13 NIV “Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring to you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
John 14:27 NKJV “Peace I leave you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
The peace that Jesus is talking of is the peace you carry, knowing that by trusting in Him, no matter how your circumstances look. The Red Sea in front of or The Egyptian army closing in behind. Remember, God loves us as much today as he did back in Moses’day. He even sent us his Son to die in our place. (John 3:16)
If you have needs, trials, fears, uncertainty, heartache, loneliness, illness, depression, or are suffering from the actions of your own doing. Take it to the cross, give it to Jesus, keep giving it to Jesus and giving it to him until you feel his peace, see his pillar and move forward. Trust me; it will happen. I’m at the cross all the time; maybe I’ll see you there.
I pray you have a blessed day, don’t forget to be a blessing if you can and thank you for joining me. 🥰
