Today’s Topic: Water Out of a Rock
Scripture: “Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.” Exodus 17:6, NKJV
When God freed the two million Israelite slaves from Egypt and was leading them through the desert toward the Promised Land, there were no grocery stores or water faucets. They began to complain, but God didn’t deliver them only to let them die of thirst. He had Moses take his staff and strike a rock, and water poured out. It was a supernatural provision.
Don’t be surprised if you face times when all the facts say, “You’ll always struggle, have debt, not enough.” God will allow situations where it looks impossible so He can show you His supernatural provision, but you have to trust Him. The Scripture says, “He makes streams in the barren places, rivers in the desert.” There may be some things barren in your life. You don’t see how it could ever change. No, get ready. God’s about to strike the rock. You’re going to see provision you can’t explain, good breaks that don’t make sense, increase that defies the odds. The same God who brought water out of a rock can cause abundance to come knocking on your door.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that no matter if my situation looks impossible, no matter what seems delayed, You will do what You have promised. Thank You that I can get my hopes up and know that You make streams to flow in the barren places. I will not be afraid. I will believe. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
TODAY’S INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: There will always be people that try to convince you to shrink back. “You’re never going to get well; my grandmother died of the same thing. You can’t start your business; you don’t have the connections. God’s not going to bless you; you’ve made too many mistakes. You don’t deserve it.” Let that go in one ear and out the other. My question is, are you releasing your faith? Are you stretching, praying, believing, expecting? Or have you gotten complacent, accepting mediocrity, living with dysfunction? Shake that off and start pursuing what God put in your heart. Be inspired by this message from Joel, “Don’t Shrink Back”. Follow, share and review here! > https://bit.ly/JOAPodcast
