Exodus 14: 13-15
And Moses said unto the people, "Fear not, stand still and see the salvation of the LORD which He will show to you today; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen today, ye shall see them again no more forever. The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace". And the LORD said unto Moses, "Wherefore criest thou unto Me? Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward."
A TIME TO PRAY AND A TIME TO ACT
Notice the words of Moses to the people; Fear not, stand still and see. Fear is perfect faith in failure; now is the time for perfect faith in the LORD GOD. Faith dispels fear and enables a person to stand still, not run around in circles screaming and shouting. A person of faith keeps his eyes on the LORD, not on the situation. When the eyes of faith watch the LORD, then salvation is at hand.
There is a time for deep prayer; there is a time to put the prayer into action. In the Latin there is a saying that says this better than many words; Ora (prayer) et Labora (action). Labora is prayer in action or the laboratory of prayer. The LORD said to Moses, "Wherefore criest(ora/prayer) thou unto Me? Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go (labora) forward." To move out, following by faith, is an ACT OF FAITH IN THE LORD.
WE WILL SEE OUR MIRACLE WHEN WE PUT OUR PRAYER INTO ACTION
