And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. (Exodus 14:13)
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Standing firm is a powerful way to glorify God

Exodus 14 tells the story of the Israelites being trapped between Pharaoh's army and the Red Sea. Moses encouraged them to stand firm and trust in God's faithfulness. Standing firm is a powerful way to glorify God and preserve our own dignity as soldiers in his army. Flight is not an option for the Christian soldier. Psalm 11 also emphasizes the importance of trusting in God and not fleeing from the enemy. Standing firm on God's word will lead to seeing his salvation in our trials. Read more...
