Will God split your Red Sea?

–

Are you facing something impossible that only God can solve? Has all human methods failed? Is the enemy closing in?

–

There are tests in life that can be solved with the prayers and support of others. These are growing experiences, and help to build confidence.

But there will be a time, when you stand completely alone.

You will know the time, because everyone will either be useless, they will abandon you, or they make it worse.

–

What does a Red Sea look like?

People will fail you. There is no understanding, there is no compassion, there is no fellowship.

You are in pain, and no one does anything.

You are innocent, and you seem guilty to them.

You are being attacked, and you are condemned as the evil one.

You are wounded, and no one sees this.

You show love, and they hate in return.

You try to fix things, and you are accused of destruction.

You are sick, and no one comes to comfort you.

You seek to make things clear, and others see you as the author of confusion.

You seek to heal, and others scream you are dangerous.

Suddenly, you become isolated, and the only way out is total intimacy with God. And now, He does not seem to be around.

You call on Him, and there is no answer.

You cry out to Him, and there is nothing.

You wait, and there is no change. You despair, and this makes things worse.

The enemy attacks, and you lay and bleed. You pray, and the enemy continues. You ask others to pray with you, and there is no one reliable to pray.

You get worse, because the enemy now has reinforcements. You are being attacked mercilessly as others watch on. They see nothing wrong.

You are left in a pit to die, and no one comes to help.

You are dying, and there is no rescue. This continues, and you die inside.

There is nothing left. You do not care anymore, even about yourself or your life. You now see you have no value. Nothing interests you anymore. Nothing makes you respond. Hope seems useless, but you hang on for some reason.

You look at the Red Sea before you. You are not going to make it.

–

Why all this?

Satan is doing this to destroy you, and make you submit to him.

–

God is allowing it, to prove you are worthy of promotion.

What to do

Be willing to wait a LONG time, past all hope. This is to develop faith.

Use the Word of God to find and define your situation. This is to develop character, wisdom and humility.

Serve others who need help. This is to develop faithfulness.

Learn to survive the wilderness of your spirit. Use music, prayer, scripture, and other resources as survival tools. Learn to listen to your spirit, and wait for God’s voice, in your aloneness. This is to build discernment.

Be patient. This is to teach you how to yield.

Deal with your frustrations, and keep them under control with positive activities and thoughts. God will keep his promise to you when he is ready, not when you are ready. Everything is HIS timing. He decides what is important, not you. This is to re-examine spiritual priorities.

Understand your own discouragement. See it as focusing on your own desires, instead of those of God. This is to teach you how to focus on the call of God.

Learn to fight. Spiritual warfare is necessary to survive. The devil will show up in person, or send others to torment you. He will fight you where you are weakest. He will bring others to gang up on you. He can only use things we give him. We are the ones who open the doors, and we have to learn to close these doors and kick him out. Find and fix your weaknesses! They are inside of you. Fight with the promises of God. Fight with faith. Fight with the liberty of the Holy Spirit. He will be your backup. This is to teach you how to use your spiritual muscles.

Learn to see what God sees in the situation and not everything from your own perspective. What are you supposed to learn from this? Look around you. Imagine God’s angels there to fight for you. This is to test your spiritual vision.

Be willing to accept more responsibility, and be the one that others depend upon. Be humble, so God can promote you. Make righteousness and holiness your priority, not your own needs. This is to test your readiness to step up to greater challenges.

Pray always. This is to equip you with the power of God, through self discipline, and communion with the Holy Spirit.

The Red Sea Splits

This will most likely come when it is the last minute, and time has run out. It will most likely take you by surprise, because you have gotten used to not having anything happen. God know the right time for you, and He will watch as you get tested and proven faithful.

Then you will walk through the split Red Sea in triumph and joy. You will look back on your tribulation, and see everything clearly then.

It was all planned by God to promote you to the next level, and to be sure you were ready.

You cannot be ready unless you have been broken.

You were broken, so it would be for his glory, not yours.

And somewhere along the way, you have forgotten your own needs, and you are consumed with His perfect will and heart.

Now you rejoice in serving him, and seeing Him get the glory.
