Walk in Faith through the Challenge
Posted July 14th, 2010 by Ben ComerScripture
Hebrews 11:29 By faith they crossed the Red Sea as though they were on dry land, When the Egyptians attempted to do this they were drowned. HCSB
Observation
Oh how I love this chapter!!! This is a new thought that I have neve seen before. Obviously Moses was in faith when he raised his staff and the Red Sea parted. But here the scripture is talking about the people walking in faith. Literally as they walked in the river bed, they were in faith that God was going to provide their deliverence. The Egyptian army had no faith in God, so that is why they were drowned in the river.
Application
With all the current challenges of this oil spill and the bad news of economic down turn in our region the body of Christ has to walk in faith. I am amazed that we are faced with yet another financial challenge, but the key is to keep walking through it. If any of Isreal had stopped because it was too scarely to walk through the Red Sea, they would have drowned with the Egyptians. I must just keep walking in faith!!!
Prayer
God thank you for walking with me through this faith journey. I am so glad that I am not on my own. I pray for all of my dear friends to keep the faith and believe in God’s sustaining grace no matter what the specific challenge might be.
