Faithful Reflection In Times of Trouble

Reading: Exodus 14:10-14 https://www.bible.com/bible/114/EXO.14.10-14
Devotional: When faced with challenges, it's easy to fall into "faithless reflection mode," focusing on past hurts and difficulties. Today's passage reminds us to practice instead "faithful reflection," remembering God's deliverance and faithfulness. As you read about the Israelites' fear when they saw Pharaoh's army, reflect on times when you've felt trapped or afraid. How did God show up for you in those moments? Moses' words, "The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still," invite us to trust God's power over our own.
Today, practice being still and surrendering your current struggles to God, remembering His past faithfulness as a foundation for present trust.
