Daily Inspiration: God's Great Power, Mercy & Love

"[God] made the wheels of their chariots wobble so that they drove them with difficulty. The Egyptians said, "Let's flee from Israel because the LORD is fighting for them and against us. Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea went back to its place. The Egyptians were fleeing toward it, and the Lord swept them into the sea. The water flowed back and covered the chariots and horsemen—the entire army of Pharaoh that had followed the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived.” Exodus 14:25, 27-28

This passage demonstrates how when believers allow God to take over and have faith in His power…He will never fail.

Pharaoh is an example of a person with a hardened heart. Pharaoh wanted to play God to his people and the nation of Egypt paid for it. The nation suffered through horrible plagues and still didn’t come to God.

As you can see from Exodus 14 the nation of Egypt was destroyed by God.

This is the reason Jesus Christ died for us. Now when we run from God and fail Him we still receive His love and mercy.  

God knows we too can become like the nation of Egypt. At times we also choose other Gods and/or Idols over our true Lord.

Because of our fallen nature we have to constantly trust in the Lord with all of our heart. We must not allow Satan to shift our focus off God and on to the fleshly desires of man.
Man will always fail. God never will.

As followers of God, every day we must set aside want we want  so we can be of service to God.

When we leave ourselves available for God to minister to…we can and will experience His power, mercy and love.

God Bless - LM
