DONT SPEAK!


Exodus 14:13

And Moses said unto the people, Fear not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall see them again no more forever.

What do you do when your back is against the wall? When you are waiting for deliverance and the providence that GOD provides? What do you do when the world is hunting you down and attempting to assassinate your life and the plans GOD has for you?  What do you focus on? What words do you put into your life? In life doubt will come and your feelings will betray you. In life you will find yourself in situations with nothing in this world to hold on to and reaching for anything to pull you through.  Your feelings will betray you and your words will not mirror the faith you profess. Your words will contradict the resume GOD has laid out in your life. We have all been there. In these times , Just as it was for the Jews at the Red Sea, we need to follow the advice of Moses. We need a stern word.   Moses said “Fear not, and Stand still”!! In other words, be quiet and be still. . .  Do not speak! Do not move! Do not do anything but look for the salvation . . . (deliverance and answer) from GOD. Moses was fully engaged in the Spirit, and in a place to deliver the word that the GOD’s people needed to hear. 

Now hear this! GOD is moving. GOD is working! GOD is about to deliver you. Wait and be still. Praise and do not speak contrary to what GOD is getting ready to do. I do not care what it looks like. I don’t care if it appears that there is no way out of your situation. I am not concerned with your opinions of the current situations. Be still, Be quiet and open your eyes, and ears eagerly for what GOD is about to do and say. Expect it!  When your back is at the Red Sea, and the army of pharaoh is before you. When you have exhausted every idea, and every plan that you have tried has failed! When only GOD will do! GOD says:

“Be still and look at my work. Be quiet and prepare to be amazed. I can split the oceans to clear a path for you. I am the maker of the way out of no way! I am the source of salvation. I will not be defeated or out done. I am your GOD! And you are mine!”

GOD can and GOD will deliver you. GOD loves and never will forsake you. God will, and GOD has given His all. GOD has his blood invested in you. He has brought you too far to let you fall away or be destroyed. Expect the impossible, and believe!

 

Be encouraged!

I love you always and in all ways.

Never Lose You!

Mark 8:36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? _____________________________________________________ The world would have you believe that it has all of the answers.   The world will tell you that what you see, hear, feel, touch and smell is all that is real and worth living for.   But you may not know or understand that living for the rewards of this world come at a cost.   The world’s influence, when used as the blueprint for living, takes your heart and shapes it to its will leaving you an empty shell of who you really are. Nothing in this world is worth changing who you are in Christ.   There is no middle ground in the issue.   Yes, we are all a work in progress and live in this world, but who we are is not dictated by anything or anyone in this world.   Who you are is worth more than whatever this world has to offer.   Do not chase the image the world is selling you.   Unless...

TIME!

James 4:14   Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. __________________________________________________________ Our plans and plots are events that we try to cram into the short time we have on this earth.   The term YOLO is very true.   We only have one life, and one short chance to live and make a difference in this world.   When we make plans for our lives we are, at best, looking at a very small slice of time.   Our time is like a seed.   A seed is small!  Yet it will leave a legacy that will be manifested in the tree and fruit that is produced.   The seed will die but what it leaves behind speaks to what was planted.   What have you decided to do with your time?   Strive to let your life edify God and leave a legacy of love via your life of expression.   Express the gift that God has given you through His son Jesus Chris...

WHERE IS YOUR HEART?

Matthew 6:19-21 19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. _____________________________________________________________ We live in a time and society that has all of us planning, working, toiling and pressing forward each day.  Every moment of our time and efforts press us towards goals and a future we carefully attempt to plan for.  Some of  us are so engulfed and focused on these plans and the temporal benefits of the perceived outcomes our plans will achieve. However, as christians our existence is more than the time we have in this world. We must make an investment into eternity.   "HOW DO WE DO THIS?" you may ask!   We must shift our thoughts and priori...
