FAITH CAPSULE: With faith and no fear, man will be able to see in the living Word of God.
Exodus 14, Jeremiah 1:1-12
The word of God does not fail and there is never going to be a time that the word God is going to fail. The book of Isaiah 55:11 testifies, “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” The children of Israel were on their way out of bondage to God’s promise land for them when the Red Sea stood on their way to deny them. The children of Israel allowed fear to rise and faith to sink. As a result of their state of mind, Moses resulted to a word of encouragement when he stated in Exodus 14:13, “…do not be afraid, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today you shall see again no more forever. The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.”God gave His Word to them through Moses. God wanted them to see salvation in His Word. Can anyone who is unstable and clouded with fear be able to see? With faith and no fear, man will be able to see deliverance and preservation inside the living Word of the living God. Fear, distraction, inconsistency and lack of commitment in serving the Lord are among the forces that will always deny a believer from standing still. Wherever you have been told that there is no way, say no to fear, stand still and begin to see a way in the Word of God.
It is written, “See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and To destroy and to throw down, and To build and to plant.” (Jeremiah 1:10) When God declared that He has put His words in Jeremiah’s mouth, all that Jeremiah needed to do to be able to operate the Word was to be able to see in the living Word of God. What God said to Jeremiah was God’s representative of God. In order for the Word of God to come to be, Jeremiah would have to see what is not in place as being in place. God wants His children to exercise a creative faith by seeing what is not in place as being in place.
God has never gone to sleep and He will not fall asleep concerning your situation. Take to Moses’ advice in Exodus 14:14, “The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.” See it in the Word and know it in faith that your miracle is at hand.
Prayer for today: Ask God to open the eyes of my heart so that you see when He speaks to you.
