God Works

I hope yesterday’s blog on Psalm 113 on our trusting God’s power with respect to our house sale encourages you to trust God for a practical, perhaps overwhelming, need in your life. Let’s continue that line of thinking as we move to Psalm 114:

God can and does work. He is powerful. He can move mountains and seas:

When Israel went out of Egypt…The sea saw it and fled; Jordan turned back. The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs.

What ails you, O sea, that you fled? O Jordan, that you turned back? O mountains, that you skipped like rams? O little hills, like lambs?

Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob, Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters. (Psalm 114.1 – 8, NKJV)

These are scenes from Exodus – Joshua. The Red Sea parted (Exodus 14) and the Jordan River (Joshua 3). Mt Sinai trembled at the presence of the Lord and and no doubt skipped like a ram (Exodus 19). And when they needed water, it came from a rock (Exodus 17).

I need to be reminded:

Is anything too hard for the LORD? (Genesis 18.14, ESV)

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for me? (Jeremiah 32.27, ESV)

Not one promise from God is empty of power, for nothing is impossible with God! (Luke 1.37, TPT. Monday’s Impossible? blog gave us examples from the world of sports)

There are obstacles in this move, but God can make them go away. Solid rock can become a pool of water. The sea and the river can part.

There is nothing here challenging ME to do something. God works.
