We are walking in today:  Can God Pull You Through This One?


Exodus 14:14 The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. Have you been thinking, 'how am I going to make it through this one?'  Or, 'can or will God pull me through this time?'  In Exodus 14, the children of Israel were asking themselves the same question.  With the Egyptian army coming up from behind and the Red Sea blocking their path to freedom, they wonder if God was even on their side.  Had God changed His mind, was there some sin in their life--hindering them from receiving the promises of God?  They thought the situation they had just left was worst than the situation that they were in.  In the Bible, Egypt represents a place of lack, bondage, hardship, and restraint, restriction and the dead end.  The only life the children of Israel knew was of oppression and limitation.  In fact they were not even allowed to think for themselves!  You may be in a situation right now where you are wondering how are you going to make it through another day--like the children of Israel--things are starting to look worse for you.  You shall hold your peace, and know that He is God!  He is fighting this battle for you!  As the Lord instructs Moses in Exodus 14:14, we don't have to fear or be angry--be still and peaceful.  Fear usually come from some kind of pressure in your life.  Be encouraged today--God has this one wrapped up for you.  It says in Romans 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.  So if you won't give up, or quit--the Lord will work His power.  The Lord continues talking to Moses, saying tell the children of Israel to go forward.  (Exodus 14:15)   Always remember when opposition comes, it is important for you to keep going!!  It is critical to keep going, working on your dreams and building your future.  The Lord specializes in tough times!  And he has what you need, supernatural peace and strength!  The battle is not yours it is the Lord's!  He has drawn the line in the sand against whatever is working against you!  Everything trying to hold you back, will be shaken!  Any thing, that is trying to deceive you and bring you into a different direction, will suddenly fade into the background.  Exodus 14:27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.  Your battle has been hard, because your blessing is great!  Remember, before the resurrection, comes the cross.  The shifting has begun and your appointed time is here.  It's time to move to a new season in your life.  God has great things ahead for you!  Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.  Fiveamprayer, you will make a difference and stand out because of the favor that God has placed on you.  Get ready because your future is already looking better!  Can God pull you out of this one!?  Sometimes we get in those tight and pressed places.  He is the more than enough God, a way maker, more than a overcomer, more than victorious!  The Egyptians on one side, the mountains on another and the Red Sea on the other side--the children of Israel were looking around for God to make away out.  But they started speaking against what He had already done and got into doubt.  Can God make a way?!  Yes, He can and will and already has!  It is God that makes a way in our finances, on our jobs, in our marriages and families.  He pulled us through late last night and woke us up this morning.  Look at the children of Israel they were in the wilderness for 40 years and their clothes and shoes did not wear out, the Lord provided for them everything that they needed.  The God that we serve can give us more than we can ask of think.  Yes, He can and He will.  Hold your peace.  God is for us, what or who can stand against us?!  He is pulling us through this time.  He is a way maker.  He is an on time God!  Try Him for yourself!  He will pull you through.  Again and again--He shows up with His mercy and grace!  He will pull you through!  The Israelites were escaping from the Egyptians and God had them to cross over the Red Sea on dry ground.  Don't quit, keep moving forward!!  Now is not the time to give up!  He has already made a way for you!  The Lord goes before you, making the crooked places straight.  He is leading you out and has shut the door behind you, that no man can open.  He said in this year you will see, stop speaking against His word!  Keep walking, pressing, taking new territory.  The race is not given to the swift!  The blessings are all in front of you, keep moving forward.  Why would you give up now?!  He has brought us too far to leave us now!  Thank You God!  We must stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.  He is fighting the battle for you!  Keep pressing, walking and moving forward.  He is the God of the impossible!  The great I AM that I AM.  He makes a way before us!  Keep walking, fiveamprayer, the steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord!  He can pull you through!  Shut down all of that fear and doubt!  God is with us!  2 Kings 6:16-17 16) And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. 17) And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.  You know in the natural, in a fight--you wanna have more on your side then on the enemies side.  Because we stand with God, we have His arsenal and warriors ready to fight--see this in the spirit--you are not alone, or without strength or power!!  You are relying on Him, trusting in Him, looking to Him!  God has this all in His control, this is not a surprise to Him!!  He saw all of this from the very beginning.  The only one new to this is you!  So sit back and let God take over--really get out of the way--be quiet and watchful, standing in faith and believing that He will show Himself mighty in your situation!  He told us that we will see!  Fiveamprayer, are you watching for God to show up and show out?  Or are you still trying to fix it, making the problem worse?  We have the expert of all things available will you let Him into the situation or continue to cause a bigger problem that will be more to fix, more the untangle?  Your faith is not misplaced in the Almighty!  He is the only one who deserves it--not any human being or thing on the face of the earth!!  Look to He who created all things--how can you fail?  That's right--you can't when you put all of your trust is Him!  He is fighting this battle, your job is to watch, believe, trust and pray.  Keep casting off your flesh, your intellect--take on His ways and thoughts.  They are much higher than ours!  Look at this thing in the spirit--He is our provider, so He has to take care of us, but will we let Him"  This is a permission based thing--God does not break in to our house and bless us.  We have to invite Him in and learn of Him walking as He directs us.  There is no doing it your way and getting God's results!  You can try all that you want but you will never be successful!  His word does tell us how to be successful, Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.  This same scripture in the New Living Translation--Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do.  Sounds like success is at the hands of God, that we must do this His way.  So no more, 'I was just trying to help or I thought it would be a good idea...'  God is not asking for your advice-- He is telling us how to have our way made prosperous and to have good success.  Meditate, study His word and follow Him!  He is telling us that this battle is not ours, be still and hold your peace.  Fiveamprayer, that is what we should do--be still and hold our peace!  We serve the God that makes the impossible, possible!  He is going before us, keep walking, keep pressing in!  The steps of the righteous man are ordered by the Lord.  He can pull you through!  That is the kind of God that we serve!  He is the Way ,the Truth and the Life!  That is why we can count it all joy!  God is with us and knows the end from the beginning and He has already planned our end, it is expected, not a surprise!  Expected sounds like it is planned, that care was taken to put everything together, no left to happenstance or mishap.  Be still and hold your peace.  This is not something that will be easy for many of us, the world today is all about telling everyone how you feel and what you think.  Then you wonder why everyone knows your business?!  With all of that talking, if anyone was listening they have your whole story right there!!  Never mind how much negative things you think and then eventually speak.  Many times when you are upset and don't want to talk, those negative thoughts seem to be pushing on your mouth to escape.  And for some time you hold them in, then later you let them loose.  Now you are feeling even worse. Why?  Because you have let loose all kinds of bad seeds that will bear bad fruit.  We can not just say anything!  We must pause and consider--if these words should be uttered?  Is what I am about to say in agreement with God's word?  Will this bring life or death to this situation.  Is the Holy Ghost giving me the signal to hold my peace, to be quiet?  There should be a buffer before you speak to determine this.  A moment to consider or time spent speaking crop failures over planting incorrect seeds.  Our words have power, and so does our silence!!  Be still.  Be quiet.  Hold your peace.  I AM that I AM, is fighting for you!  Don't fear.  Don't fret.  Hold your peace, fiveamprayer!!  God is fighting for us!  Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!!  This is the year that we will see!  God will see us through!  We live by His provision!  Bless His name!  Give Him all the praise, honor and glory!  It is all by His power and authority.  Stop speaking in fear and negativity--this is a battle hold your peace and know that He is God!  It is time to be quiet--He is making a way for us out of no way!  He is the greater One!  He will pull us through.  Be quiet, one negative word can put you out of position!  Don't kill the mission!  He is pulling you out!  Why are you fearful, God did not give you the spirit of fear!  This is the year that you will see.  Take a look at this with your spiritual eyes.  Hold your peace--say, "I know that God will fix it.  I know what God can do!"  Hold your peace in your marriages, finances, and on your job.  God has got it, He doesn't need any help!  The only way that you could help is to step back and let Him work.  Have you ever seen someone wanting so badly to help that their 'help' was really a hindrance?!   When the 'helper' finally left it alone, the real work could get done!  Well, you are 'helper'--that is causing the slow down and hindrance to progress.  Let go and let God!  He has got this!  We can hold on to our peace, because He has spoken victory!  Don't open your mouth and accept and invite in bondage, when He has said liberty!  Be still in the freedom that He has already given you--the freedom to rest in Him and watch Him fight the battle.  Stop speaking death over yourself--He has spoken life, and that more abundantly!  He has already got it all worked out.  Be still.  Be quiet.  Don't let the devil use us to tear down our own walls and defenses!!  The enemy will try to get you to work against yourself--against God.  The distractions from the devil are to move you out of His perfect peace.  Don't be moved by what you see--it is He that we don't see that keeps us from moment to moment!  Hold to His word!  It never fails!  Keep your mind stayed on Him so that you can remain in His perfect peace!  This is not the time to operate in your flesh!  Thank You God for letting us know we are killing and blocking our own blessings.  We can't say anything or whatever we feel like.  We are not to speak everything that we feel.  Hold your peace, fiveamprayer!  We are to walk in humility--God will lift us up.  God is in control--stop trying to be god.  He has told us not to have any other god's before Him.  He is the first, the last, the only God!    We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown.  Have us to really understand and walk in that You are God all by Yourself!  We come asking forgiveness, for getting in the way, for being out of control.  Thank You Lord for forgiving us with no condemnation, casting our sins into the sea that they are remembered no more!  Teach us Lord how to hold our peace, to forgive others immediately that our prayers are not hindered.  We must forgive to be forgiven, fiveamprayer!  Thank you Lord for teaching us the good and right way!

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:   I will hold my peace!

Welcome to the overflow... 
Be still and know that He, is God!  We don't have to say a word!  Trying to fight this ourselves, we are mentally and physically drained, from trying to talk and explain ourselves.  Be still and know that You, Lord are God.  Jesus did not do a whole bunch of explaining to those that did not want to hear the Truth.  Usually it is when there is a lie being told that we have to repeat and convince and over-explain.  The truth does not need that kind of delivery--the truth is true--it proves itself!  It will bear witness of itself!  1 John 5:7-9 7) For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8) And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 9) If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.  We don't have to say a word.  Praise Him in the midst of it all!  My God is fighting my battles for me!  Be quiet.  Be still.  God is moving right now!  Don't say another word.  Shh!  Walk in the silence of the Lord today.  Let he who has hears to hear, let him hear!  Hear God--hold your peace!  Thank You God!  You have be running your mouth.  Why do you thing God gave you two ears and one mouth?!  We should be listening twice as much as we speak.  Be quiet.  Be still.  Get in a place of stillness, as the word tells us in Joshua we are to meditate on His word day and night to make our way a good success.  With our mind stayed on Him we will have perfect peace in our mind.  With that clarity we can really hear what God has to say.  The battle is not ours it is the Lord's!  Thank You Holy Spirit, for letting us know if and when we should speak.  Let patience have it's perfect work, don't get out of position now!  Be still and be quiet.  Visit us on facebook and have a blessed day, resting in the stillness of God.  Amen!
