Everyday Blessings #11: God Makes a Way

I read this quote recently:

“God did not remove the Red Sea, he opened it. He will help us find a way through our problems as well.”

How often have you prayed for God to rescue you from a problem? It doesn’t mean he never does or never will, but what if He has something better for you by showing you a way through your problem? How could we come to know and trust God’s hand if not for the trials he’s seen us through?

The story of the Red Sea for example. We’ve passed that down for generations! It’s recorded in God’s Word as a living testament to God’s awesome power and deliverance. Those powerful words of Moses as he held his rod out over the waters. “Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!”

Maybe you find yourself on the banks of your own Red Sea road. You can’t go forward and you can’t go back and you’re praying for God’s deliverance. Remember that His deliverance doesn’t always look like we want it to! But you’ll never walk alone even on that Red Sea road! He’s there to walk with you!
