It Flees by Lorraine Ezell
(Note from Linda: One of the FAM members shared the following Coffee Break devotional from Lorraine (Monday’s devotional) on the private site last night, which she had only just read. Well, I hadn’t read it yet either, and I agree with her that it’s a great message for everyone standing for marriage restoration, so I want to share here as well! When we realize and TRULY believe that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD, we will indeed be blessed and encouraged beyond belief! Just as Proverbs 21:30 tells us…There is no wisdom, no insight and no plan that can succeed against the Lord!))
“The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.” Psalm 114:3
In context this scripture is referring to the time when the Lord delivered His people from Egypt and was taking them to the land that He had promised to give to the descendants of Abraham. During this transition from one location to another we have the accounts of two miraculous, supernatural events that dealt with bodies of water- the partings of the Red Sea and the Jordan River.
God had made a promise to Abraham centuries earlier and the fulfillment of that promise was in the process, but there were a couple of things in the natural realm that stood in the way- these two bodies of water. I want to encourage you this morning that when God is in the process of fulfilling His promise, when the physical manifestation is being revealed, there is nothing that can stand in His way to stop it. There is not a sea too wide, a river too deep, a mountain too high, a storm too violent to hinder God. All He has to do is speak to it, wave His hand over it, breathe on it and it no longer stands in the way.
This morning maybe you have come to the “sea” and you don’t see a way to cross it. Don’t worry about it. God can cross it! God can remove it out of the way, God can cause it to flee and become dry ground, God can give you a boat and the grace to paddle across it, He can give you the strength to jump in the water and swim. The point is, it may be an impossible obstacle to you, but it is not an obstacle or impossible to God.
Have a great day. Nothing can stand in the way of God’s plan going forward– nothing in the natural or spiritual realms.
