Stand Still and See — Part 7.
And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
Exodus 14:13 KJV).
The final part in the Moses statement to the Israelites sums it all:
The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. Exodus 14:14.
Do you know what is fantastic about this verse is that the Lord will fight for you, and once he does, you will hold your peace. The New International Version puts it in a different context familiar with this series: The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
The New Living Translation: The LORD himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”
English Standard Version: The LORD will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”
The Living Bible: The Lord will fight for you, and you won’t need to lift a finger!”
Your attitude and state of mind make a huge difference. God is fighting for you, but if you are not receiving the benefit of his triumph, it is because of your attitude, perspective, and expectations. Because things look like nothing is happening does not mean the Lord is not fighting for you. The Lord does not expect you to fight for him or to assist him in fighting. The Lord does not desire for you to raise a finger. He has declared that the battle belongs to him. You need to start trusting him and believe his word of truth.
You are not being blessed not because you haven’t been blessed but because of your unbelief. Despite the miracle that brought the Hebrew’s out from Egypt not long ago, the moment they faced a new challenge, they forgot their testimony. They started complaining. The way you overcome the enemy is through the blood of Jesus and the word of your testimony. If you don’t think you have a testimony, think again. Being alive is the most remarkable testimony ever.
Your battles belong to the Lord, and he will win the war. As a result, the enemy will be scattered. So, stop worrying about things that are beyond your controle.
