Wisdom For The Day Devotional 25 July 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Go Forward

TOPIC: Go Forward (TREM Devotional 25 July 2024)

“And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:” Exodus 14:15 (KJV)

MESSAGE:

After the Israelites had left Egypt, Pharaoh and his cohorts suddenly pursued them with horses and chariots to bring them back to slavery. You can see that the devil would always fight the plans and purposes of God over your life. But it’s too late because your God is always a step ahead. At the Red Sea, we are told that God’s people became stuck, and Pharaoh intensified his pursuit, thinking he had them pinned down.

But unknown to him, it was a set-up to wipe them all out. I perceive that God cleared His throat and commanded Moses to tell the people to go forward. Moses would have thought, how can we go forward when the Red Sea is right before us? However, all he ever heard was go forward, as impossible as it sounded. God had spoken, and there was no going back. God was saying, in effect, you may not see a way through the sea, but I am going to make a way for you even where none exists.

The clincher, however, was that Moses obeyed what God had said. Acting on what God said, the people walked through the sea supernaturally, without struggle and continued their journey as if nothing had happened. In like manner, I declare that this year, no plan of the enemy concerning your life will come to pass. God will prove Himself in your life. You will experience the supernatural. From today to the last day of this year, you will see the goodness of God in your life. God has given you His Word, so expect great things to happen for you. It is a decision you must take. You must choose to believe God for what He has said.

Stay connected to God’s Word, which is the only thing that is constant. Every other thing will fail, but not the Word. Remember that God’s Word to Moses was ‘Go Forward’, and for as long as he heeded what God said, he had victory.
