God Makes A Way | Institute of Love

After fleeing slavery under Pharaoh in Egypt, the Israelites stood in front of their biggest challenge when Pharaoh and his army were approaching them from behind as they were standing in front of the Red Sea, no where to go! But then the Lord opened up a path through the water with a strong east wind. The wind blew all that night, turning the seabed into dry land. So the people of Israel walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on each side till they reached the other side safely! The Egyptians—all of Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and charioteers—chased the Israelites into the middle of the sea, but the Lord made the water rush back into its usual place and swept them into the sea and causing them all to drown. (See Exodus 14:1-31) Like these Israelites, you can also be standing in front of one of your biggest challenges in life. You ran out of all options and are in need of a huge miracle! Moses, the leader of the Israelites, told the people, “Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today will never be seen again. The Lord Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.” Exodus 14:13-14 NLT  God can also do for you what He did for the Israelites, because He is the only one who is able to make a way where there seems to be no way!!! (See Isaiah 43:16)
