Exodus 14:22 " and the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand and on their left".
We have all been in situations where there seemed to be no way out, no solution that we are able to see. This life we have been called to live is one of faith, for the just shall live by faith. but on this road we travel often we don't see the how, of God's provisions, the why of His directions or the what of our purpose, which can cause us to enter into a state of doubt and confusion not seeing anyway out. But our awesome God is in control of every situation even when all seems hopeless. He tells us He is the way.
Jesus tells us to cast all of our cares upon Him for He cares for us. In out text God let the children of Israel out of Egypt. Here they were trapped in the middle of no where, the enemy coming behind them and sure death before them. The best they could hope for was to be captured and returned back to slavery in Egypt. However, Moses the man of God told them that God could and would save them. Then the sea was divided with walls of water on each side to keep the children moving straight ahead, not able to veer to the left or to the right. We too must trust that God can and will save all who calls upon the name of the Lord. It doesn't matter the situation or the circumstances Jesus saves. We must be still and behold the salvation of the Lord.
God has delivered us from the bondage of sin and slavery of the flesh. There are times when we feel trapped, in danger of falling back or giving in to the temptations of the evil one. But we like the children of Israel must also trust that God can and will save us. There is no temptation that can come upon us that He hasn't given us a way out of. Let us be still and see the salvation of the Lord for He is our way out of no way.
