Exodus 14 verses 13 and 14 says:
But Moses said to the people, “Do not fear! Stand by and see the salvation of the Lord which He will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again forever. 14 The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent.”
Have you ever been a place where you are asking “Why am I not seeing breakthrough?”
I have. And as I ponder upon these verses, I think when we are asking “Why am I not seeing breakthrough?” what we are really asking is “Why don’t I see breakthrough NOW”
In the verses above, Moses declares to the nation of Israel “your deliverance is coming! And it’s coming TODAY!!”
No longer would the nation of Israel long for the coming deliverance of the Lord. No longer would they hope that breakthrough would come. In this moment Moses tells them, TODAY is the day for your breakthrough!
What an awesome moment that is, when we see the manifestation of our praying, our seeking, our sowing and our faithful endurance. What a blessing when TODAY arrives and brings the breakthrough.
But here’s the thought.
You only get to the TODAY of your breakthrough if you first don’t quit, enduring, seeking and praying to the Lord of the breakthrough.
If you are at the point of saying “why am I not seeing my breakthrough NOW?” you have two choices:
-
1. If you run or disconnect or react in fear, you will not see your deliverance
2. But if you “fear not” and stand firm on what God has said, if you commit to endure, THEN you will no longer see your oppressor, you will SEE the deliverance of the Lord!
This is a great promise. Don’t complain. Be still before God and stand on His Word. And your day of deliverance will come.
PRAYER: Father, thank you for your promise. Thank you for your Word to me. Thank you for your deliverance and breakthrough. I receive it by faith today. Thank you Father, in Jesus name, Amen.
