CRY TO HIM
Exodus 3:7-10

Exodus 3:7-8, “And the LORD said: “I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows. 8 So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.”” Four things happened when it was time for the children of Israel to come out of over four hundred years of bondage: 1) God Saw their situation. 2) They cry to Him. 3) God knew their sorrow. And 4) God came down to them. God, whose eyes cover the whole earth, sees every situation around the clock, and He expects to hear from you at your time. In His seeing the situation, He heard the cry of the children of Israel. In their cry, He knew exactly the level of pain in their situation. As a result of their demonstration of pain and crying, God came down to deliver them. Whatever pain you are going through, the extent of such pain is what will escalate your crying. When your crying escalates, it demonstrates to God that your deliverance time is set. God’s move in response to your cry will then bring forth deliverance. The book of Isaiah 58:9-10, described how God responds to crying of His children when He is not violated in any of His word. Isaiah 58:9, “Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer; You shall cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am …’”God is a caring God and He will not look away from any of His children when they cry or call unto Him. God emphasized on His deliverance package by repeating Himself in Exodus 3:9-10 “Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.” Every time there is emphasis in the word of God, there is a need for an emphatic attention that should call for the need to tap into the word for a believer’s deliverance. Can you think of any situation that has been “having you” like the Egyptians “had” the children of Israel in bondage? It is time to cry unto the Lord for your own deliverance.
 
 
Prayer for today: Father, You are the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. I ask in Jesus’ name for the same hand of deliverance on my behalf.
