The people of Israel were trapped between the Red Sea and an advancing, unhappy, powerful army. You likely recall Moses’ command to them: “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today.” (Exodus 14:13) The apostle Paul captured the same sentiment for the Corinthians. He said, in effect: I have preached to you Christ…His death, burial and resurrection. Don’t be swayed by wickedness surrounding you. Hold steadfast to your faith (I Corinthians 15:1-2). Do you understand how grand a message that is…and the impact that believing it can make upon your life? You are a child of God – accepted by Him and protected by Him. He desires that you have an attitude of cheerful courage, rejoicing in His love and faithfulness. Satan relishes your retreat to the way of the world, but God will have you stand tall, hold to your principles and respond to His guidance. Bombarded daily with news of government corruption and human failings, remain firm in your faith. Be encouraged in the Word. Pray for God’s leading…particularly for those in national leadership. May they know His grace and truth and act upon it. (PPT)
