There are times in life where we find ourselves in situations where we feel trapped. We trust and believe in God but we see the waves of our Red Sea and the enemy approaching. It’s a scary moment.
We can still be scared and trust God. Our faith sees things that we don’t see with our physical eyes.
It’s easy in these moments to complain as Israel did to Moses about the situation.
The pharaoh character in the movie played by Yul Brenner was leading the charge of the Egyptian armor toward Israel. When they got close he said “Their God is a poor field general.”
There are times when we wonder why God has led us to a place that has us trapped with no deliverance in sight. It would seem that God is not in control.
It the moments where is appears God has been a poor field general, He opens the way to our greatest victory.
The Red Sea scares us. We wonder where God is. Our faith is tested. Will God deliver us this time or will the enemy destroy us?
The only thing we can do is stand still. Does it guarantee that things will turn out the way we want it to turn out? Not always but where else are we going to turn? Some times it simply comes down to the fact that either God will deliver us or He won't. None of us knows the mind of God and what His purpose is in what we are facing.
