Pure Glory

by Hazel Straub

Discouraged due to the obstacles, losses, challenges, you are facing? Look up into the face of your Creator God and know that he loves you and has great plans for your life. As you gaze into his face and remember how he has been faithful to you, throughout your life. When it looked like you would fall and not get up, he came through. Look up for your Redeemer lives and what the enemy meant for evil, turns into good. Keep your focus on the Lord and not the things that want to defeat you.

The children of Israel had feared the taskmasters in Egypt, who had made their lives miserable. But God rescued them from slavery and brought them out with his mighty hand. Although Pharaoh and his army pursued them and the Red Sea stood before them, God reversed what looked hopeless, into victory. He dried up the Red Sea and the children of Israel passed safely to the other side.

But Moses said to the people, “Do not fear! Stand by and see the salvation of the LORD
 which He will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again forever. “The LORD will fight for you while you keep silent.” (Exodus 14:13-14 BSB)

When they were discouraged with the circumstances God took care of their enemies. After the Egyptians went into the dry sea bed, the Lord fought against them. The waters of the Red Sea went back into place and not one of the Egyptians that had pursued, threatened, and frightened them, survived.

Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her with tambourines and dancing. And Miriam sang back to them:  “Sing to the LORD, for He is highly exalted; the horse and rider He has thrown into the sea.” (Exodus 15:20-21 BSB)

God is our Salvation and turns hopeless situations, into a time of rejoicing. The enemy we have known all our lives, we will see no more. He is defeated! Rejoice! God calls you a faith walker!
