A reminder
for today
Later,
when the boy was older, his mother brought him back to Pharaoh's daughter, who
adopted him as her own son. The princess named him Moses, for she explained,
"I lifted him out of the water." (Exodus 2:10)
Out of the water and victory over sin:
She
saw that he was a special baby and kept him hidden for three months. I
believe in the eyes of the Lord each and every one of us is seen as a special
baby. Just like Moses, God has a plan for each one of us, but let us talk about
being lifted from the water.
I have this image of being baptised and lifted from the
water. We know that Moses was hidden in the water when Pharaoh’s daughter saw
him and she lifted him from the water, taking him from being persecuted to
being saved. I see that being lifted from the water and acknowledging Jesus as
our saviour we are taken from persecution to a life that is saved.
I see that it is Jesus that is the one who lifts you up
from the water today as He pulls you out of the mud and mire into His arms of
warmth and safety. I see His warm smile as it calms you down and peace and love
fills your entire body. I see how He reunites you with a familiar face that
supports you and helps you as you grow stronger every day. I see us back in His
presence, in His palace free from the burdens of this world and victorious over
all that we face. I see God’s glory in our lives as we glorify His name.
My dear friend, I pray that you will be lifted from
whatever keeps you from the love of Jesus and from becoming who God intended
you to be. I pray that the chains of fear is broken and that you will soar with
eagles as you are lifted from the hold that you are in. I pray that you will
have a life filled with blessings and that you will live a life that will lift
other from the water and into the Lord’s arms, in Jesus name.
God has been so good to us in the last week through all
that we faced and through all the obstacles that lied in our path. I can truly
testify that the enemy has no power over us and that in His mercy and grace we
are strengthened so that nothing will break our spirit, but instead our spirit
will soar to proclaim His great love.
Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
