[If you are not familiar with this story in the bible, I recommend you to read the entire chapter of Exodus or at least Exodus 13:17 – 14:31] Exodus 14:21-22 (NIV) reads, “Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left.”
The significant of this passage is that Moses had everything he needed to carry out the assignment the Lord has given him. In verse 15-16 ‘Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.’
God has equipped you with everything you need to be successful. You have to keep moving forward. What’s in your hand meaning, you have to use what you have been given. The rod Moses had in his hand was ordinary and he stretched it out. Getting out of his comfort zone, through his obedience God showed Himself strong by delivering the Israelites from the hand of the Egyptians. What looks normal to the eyes of man, God can use it to do extraordinary things. Don’t overlook what you have. Look how God is using my gift to inspire you. What has God commanded you to do? Keep moving forward and stretch out!
