Stand still and Rise up

During my bible reading this morning I was struck again by Moses' exhortation in Exodus 14:13. They were told to stand still and watch God save them.

Then, my mind went to Joshua 1:2. Here God tells Joshua to "arise, go over this Jordan."

Sometimes God tells us to stand still and watch; sometimes God says get up and get going into the place that he has called us.

Regardless, the focus in both cases is the same--God's word, God's power, God's promises, God's commands, and God's presence.

What is he telling you to do today?

Regardless, trust Him and obey Him...for there is no other way!
