Move It!
S. O. A. P.
Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional!
S-cripture:
Exodus 14:15
Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on.”
O-bservation:
This is an amazing story. The Israelis had escaped out of Egypt during the night by the hand of the Lord. When the Egyptians finally figured out what had happened to them, they immediately began chasing the Israelis. Soon the Israelites were stopped at the shore of the Red Sea and the Egyptians were in hot pursuit. They began complaining to Moses that he (Moses) had brought them out of Egypt to die. Finally, Moses gave a speech in the previous verses and said, “Stand still, and you will see the salvation of the Lord!” Immediately the Lord said to Moses, “What are you saying? Tell the Israelis to, ‘Move It!’”
A-pplication:
If we’re not careful, we have a tendency to throw our hands up like Moses did and say, “Watch God,” when God is telling us to “Move It!” Make no mistake, God had to split the Red Sea for this to work, but He wanted His people to keep moving during the process. God will have to work a miracle for you and me as well, but may we not stand still and wait. There is so much for us to do in faith, believing that the miracle is on the way. Don’t let the enemy trick you into believing that all you have to do is sit back and watch. Instead, today, decide that with God’s help, you will, “Move It!”
P-rayer:
Dear Jesus,
I’m ready to step into the water. I know You will come through. I’m not going to stand by and watch while I complain. With Your help, I’m going to “Move It” today. Amen
