Exodus 13:17-22
To those that went in the journey of the wilderness, it must have been as if the journey would never come to an end. Are you feeling the same in your journey of life? Do you question about when will all the confronting challenges be over? Interesting enough for the children of < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Israel, the Lord led them through the safest route. It was a route to avoid war with the forces of enemy; a route that would prevent them from becoming a captive in the hands of enemy. Above all, God led them through a route where there would have been no reason for them to go back into the captivity of Egypt. Exodus 13: 17-18, ÒThen it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt. 18 So God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up in orderly ranks out of the land of Egypt.Ó In their deliverance from entering a war route, they turned on to war of complaint and disobedience against the One that led them from bondage. The children of Israel could have taken the worst route, but they did not recognize it. As a result, they were unable to acknowledge what God had done and turned into complaining and disobedient. Your situation could be much worst right now, consider yourself blessed and keep on trusting God. He knows the plans that He is having for you. His plan is not evil because He is not an evil God. Today, encourage yourself in the Lord; let it be clear to you that God will get you to where He is taking you if you do not get out of His command.
