- God Who Engineers
The Lord engineers every facet of our circumstances. Through this, not only does He your faith in Him, but also His faithfulness. In the Exodus 14, the Israelites was shown the strength of their faith when their circumstances found them facing a seemingly impossible situation. Often when we are faced with our storms and trials we fail to honor God. We fail because of our unfaithfulness and our forgetfulness. We forget how true and faithful the Lord is to us because we compartmentalize. We read His words but are quick to judge them as irrelevant in our predicaments. Do not forget what God has brought you out of. When we look back at our previous storms, our memory falters us. The suffering of our current circumstances causes us to distort our perspective and fool ourselves into believing we were better off without Him. How important is God's faithfulness in your life? - God Who Fights
God is always after more than your victory. He is after your complete surrender which will ultimately lead you to your complete deliverance. Through out the bible the Lord constantly reminds us "Do not be afraid." The Lord always has our best interest at heart, even if we fail to perceive it. Do you see God working in your life? When God delivers, He deliver thoroughly.
"Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today."
