Strengthen Your Faith Devotional Day 6


Bible Reading

The Israelites lifted their eyes and saw the Egyptian army marching after them and so they were very afraid and they cried out to the Lord.

… Then Moses said unto them “Do not be afraid. Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. The Lord shall fight for you and you shall hold your peace.”

… And the Lord said unto Moses, “Tell the Israelites to go forward. But lift up your rod and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground in the midst of the sea.”

… And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night and made the sea into dry land and the waters were divided. So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

The Egyptian army went after them into the midst of the sea … The Lord troubled them and took of the wheels of their chariots so that they drove them with difficulty and the Egyptians said, “Let us flee from the Israelites for the Lord fights for them.” Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea so that the waters may come back upon the Egyptians.” And Moses stretched out his hand and … the sea returned to its full depth. The Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea for the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen and all of Pharaoh’s army.


… So the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians and the Israelties saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore. (Exodus 14:10-30)

The Israelites were surrounded by major problems because the Red Sea was infront of them and they did not have a boat while Pharaoh’s army was rapidly approaching from behind. 

However, God saved them by telling Moses to stretch out his hand over the Red Sea and causing a wind which divided the waters. The Israelites were thus able to walk on dry ground in the midst of the sea. 

When the Egyptian army followed them, God told Moses to stretch out his hand over the sea and the waters returned to their full depth and so Pharaoh’s army was drowned in the sea.

Therefore believe that God can save you even if you are surrounded by life-threatening dangerous problems because With God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26) 

In addition, know that God is not a respector of persons (Acts 10:34) which means that what He did for the Israelites, He can also do for you if you believe. Therefore believe that He can save you and if your faith is wavering read How to Increase your Faith.


However, ensure that you follow the instructions that God gives you when you are trapped by a sea of problems because Moses obeyed God when he was told to stretch out his hand over the sea for the Israelites and for the Egyptians.

(Matthew 19:26)
