-You Gotta Have Faith!!!-
“But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them...”
- Exodus 1:17a
All over the world, people are standing up for what they believe. Some people stand up for their racial history, family, friends, and etc. But I’m not talking about standing up like that.
I’m talking about God. Are you giving Him the praise He deserves? Are you standing up for what He wants you to, or are you just going along with the crowd?
God doesn’t want us to blend in with the crowd or follow the world in sin, but He wants better for us. He wants to experience Heaven, not only after we die, but on earth. He loves us even though we don’t deserve it. We owe Him all (100%) of our lives.
If you read this full passage the verse above in it, you will get more of the story. Shiphrah and Puah were two the two midwives in the verse above. The king of Egypt had gave them strict orders to kill the all the boys they delivered from the pregnant women. It wasn’t just a teacher telling them to follow their words, but a king’s commandment to them.
I’m sure they were scared of the king, but they loved God; so they obeyed Him. Even under the tough circumstance and hard pressure, the two midwives stood up for what they believe; they stood up for God and what He wanted them to. They took that deeper step of faith, and I’m sure God blessed them for it.
So my question for you is: Have you taken that deeper step of faith for God? Have you been living your beliefs or just expressing them in words? Trust God. He won’t let you down. Don’t live your life knowing that when it’s all over, it was worthless. Don’t be lukewarm and walk around like you’re dead. You are alive and a part of God’s family. REJOICE!!! And don’t be afraid to stand up for Him.
“…I got victory, praise the Lord, over the enemy, glory-glory, and this world can’t do me no harm.” *Conclusion*:
You gotta have FAITH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
