Stand Firm

Audio / Produced by The High Calling

Transcript

Talk about no options! The Children of Israel were fleeing Egypt. Before them lay the Red Sea. On either side were vast deserts. Coming up from behind: the most powerful army on earth. Every direction was certain doom. Who can fight enemies coming on all sides? Then came the order from Moses: “Stand firm. The Lord will fight for you.”

This is Howard Butt, Jr., of Laity Lodge. These days in particular, many of us feel that troubles are big and options are few. Then as now, however, when you see no way out, the Bible’s words ring ever true. “Stand firm.” When options fail, the Lord will fight for you . . . in the high calling of our daily work.

Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. (Ex. 14:13)
