About Me

I am a retired VA employee who lives in Texas. I consider the characters of the Bible "family" as much as any I know or have known on earth. To be one of the Lord's beloved is the greatest thing I know. What good company!

Bibledoorajar: Ear to Hear

Don't let them win
(Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now)
Hey now, hey now
Don't let them win
(They come, they come)
Don't let them win
(Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now)
 Lyrics from Don't Stop the Dream by Finn

When the children of God heard Pharoah and all his chariots and soldiers coming they became very afraid. But their leader, Moses, had assurances from God that Pharoah would not win. The last exodus miracle would be to stop the armies of Pharoah in their tracks literally. Moses encouraged the people to quieten down and watch their God do a miracle on behalf of their salvation. In preparation for the parting of the sea, the Cloud moved from in the front to behind the children in order that they be fully protected until the miracle was completed. The Egyptians were still there in their might but they were in total darkness and rendered helpless.

It is interesting to me that one of the hardest things for we Christians to grasp and fully live is that the Spirit is not only in front leading us but He also has our back. We spend hours trying to figure things out, when God has only said to trust Him. He has the front and the back of His own. It is His intent to make Israel his peculiar treasure as will be seen later in Exodus 19. The apostle Peter says to the Church that God has the same intent for us. We are a people totally removed from darkness and a royal priesthood, a holy nation. Don't let Satan and his minions convince you that you are still alone in darkness. Be quiet and let your Father complete His exodus miracle for you.
