Bible in a Year: Deuteronomy 2627; Mark 14:2753
By faith [Moses] left Egypt, not fearing the kings anger. Hebrews 11:27 Today's Scripture & Insight:
Working in the corporate world allowed me to interact with many talented and levelheaded people. However, one project led by an out-of-town supervisor was an exception. Regardless of our teams progress, this manager harshly criticized our work and demanded more effort during each weekly status phone call. These run-ins left me discouraged and fearful. At times, I wanted to quit.
Its possible that Moses felt like quitting when he encountered Pharaoh during the plague of darkness. God had hurled eight other epic disasters at Egypt, and Pharaoh finally exploded, [Moses,] get out of my sight! Make sure you do not appear before me again! The day you see my face you will die (Exodus 10:28).
Despite this threat, Moses eventually was used by God to free the Israelites from Pharaohs control. [By faith] Moses left the land of Egypt, not fearing the kings anger. He kept right on going because he kept his eyes on the one who is invisible (Hebrews 11:27 nlt). Moses overcame Pharaoh by believing that God would keep His promise of deliverance (Exodus 3:17).
Today, we can rely on the promise that God is with us in every situation, supporting us through His Holy Spirit. He helps us resist the pressure of intimidation and wrong responses to it by granting us supernatural power, love, and self-control (2 Timothy 1:7). The Spirit provides the courage we need to keep going and to follow Gods leading in our lives.
What types of situations upset you? How can you rely on God?
Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.
Resting coming along well?
