“The LORD went ahead of them. He guided them during the day with a pillar of cloud, and he provided light at night with a pillar of fire. This allowed them to travel by day or by night.” Exodus 13:21 NLT
Hearing the voice of GOD is the most unexplainable experience for daily living. I believe Moses and GOD had the most amazing times just talking to one another. Moses listened as GOD talked. It helped him to stay in concert with GOD’s ultimate plan in the wilderness. It is the same way when we just listen and follow divine orders. As I was spending some focused time alone with GOD, He suddenly said…”MOVE ON.” I did not have to guess if He was talking to me; I knew He was speaking directly to me. I have learned in the place called “quiet time” with GOD, you must listen carefully.
When GOD said MOVE ON and not another word, I thought about the children of Israel in the wilderness. That’s exactly what He commanded them to do. GOD instructed them to keep MOVING ON because He was ahead of them. This was extremely difficult for them, but they had no choice once they left Egypt. Imagine Almighty GOD’s presence going ahead of You every day and every night. It sounds like a place of peaceful rest. Many times, GOD wants You to MOVE ON because where we are is not the place He wants You to be. So sends an order to move. And to get to that DESTINED PLACE,” you have to move. You have to leave that place you have outgrown but just don’t know it.
Moving on takes a leap of faith. It’s not easy leaving the comfort zone of family, friends, church, job, relationships, and many other things that keep us where GOD is saying…”MOVE ON.” Our lives belong to GOD, and He knows best for us, which is why He sent His son JESUS to die for our sins. (John 3:16) If we trust GOD and MOVE ON without question, His plan and purpose will come to fruition for us.
Remember:
JESUS is sitting on the right-hand side of GOD because He obeyed and MOVED ON. (1 Peter 3:22.)
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly FATHER,
Thank you for announcing it’s time to move on. May our faith in you be the key to moving quickly so that our destiny will not be on hold. We trust that you will take care of us just like you did the Israelites day and night. In Your Matchless Name, Jesus, Amen.
