God can change His positioning



Today’s Inspiration πŸ˜‡πŸ€—

Our prayers can cause God to change His positioning. 

God is our provider and our protector. He is our shield and our fortress. When we call on Him in our hour of need He can change His positioning for our comfort. 

The angel of God was leading the camp of Israel out of slavery when they approached the Red Sea. They saw their captors behind them and they were petrified. 

Years of trauma and dead ends could cause us to desire pain and resent hope, accept poverty and resent wealth, allow sickness and abandon healing. Years of dryness could cause us to self sabotage and block our blessings. 

Exodus 14:12 (NLT)
Didn’t we tell you this would happen while we were still in Egypt? We said, ‘Leave us alone! Let us be slaves to the Egyptians. It’s better to be a slave in Egypt than a corpse in the wilderness!’”

There is a point in our dryness where we give up, where we stop dreaming, stop fighting, and stop hoping. When we reach that point it is hard for us to see God. 

Exodus 14:19-20 (KJV)
And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:

God was in front of their face but they couldn’t see Him. 
They were paralyzed by their past they couldn’t see God and His glory. 

God changed His positioning so they could move forward. 

When we follow God we have to put our blinders on and focus on the path forward. We cannot look to the left or the right at the water that may consume us. We cannot look back at the past that may capture us. We have to look forward toward our loving God that will protect us, that will provide for us, and that will lead us towards righteousness for His name sake.

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves πŸ’ž you.
