Summary: Jesus is the way. When all other ways fail, He makes a way for his children. He will make a way for you.
TEXT: ISAIAH 43:16,18-19
"I am the lord, who opened a way through the waters, making a dry path through the sea. “But forget all that— it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland."
LIFE IS FULL OF TROUBLES AND TRIALS
Job said, "Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble" (Job 14:1). He knew what he passed through in the hand of Satan, who God permitted to test Job's integrity. All believers will pass through trials but God assures that He will make a way of escape for every trial that Satan fashions. (1 Cor10:13). Are you passing through trials, God will open your eyes to see the way of escape prepared for you in Jesus name
A WAY OUT OF OPPRESSIO
Moses repeatedly told Pharaoh God's message: "Let my people God." But he refused to grant God's request and felt the full weight of God's wrath with repeated plagues visited upon him and his subjects. He had to relent when the Angel of death swept through the land of Egypt and slew all first born children of beast and man. God made a way for his children to escape from slavery. Are you in bondage or oppressed by man or demon, the mighty hand of God will descend upon your adversaries and God will make a way for your deliverance in Jesus name.
A WAY WHEN THERE IS NO WAY
The Israelites were sandwiched between the gigantic red sea and the menacing chariots of the mighty Egyptian army. They were terrified and forget all the miracles God did in the land of Egypt; they complained bitterly (Ex 14:10-12). God intervened and made a way for them through the Red sea. They did not turn back to Egypt, they moved forward. Are you between the devil and the red sea, trust in God; He will make a way for you to move forward in Jesus name.
God will fight for you, "for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever" in Jesus name. (Ex.14:13)
A WAY IN THE WILDERNESS
The journey to the promised land was rough and tough. The constant complains and murmuring among the multitudes compounded their problems. The was no bread in the wilderness. No (meat) protein in the wilderness. Water was very scarce. No change of garment or footwear. But God still made a way in the wilderness for the Israelites. He provided bread, water, meat and preserved their clothes and footwear. Stephen recounted these in Acts 7:36: "He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years." The Lord will bring you out of the wilderness of life. He will make a way to sustain and nourish you. You will not be consumed in the wilderness of life in Jesus name.
A WAY THROUGH OBSTACLES
When they got to the borders of the promised land, the great wall of Jericho stood between them and the land flowing with milk and honey. It was so huge, many of them lost hope. God was not about to renege on his promise to their forefathers and e arose and made a way for them to utterly demolish the wall and take over the land. The wall of Jericho crumbled with a shout of Alleluia! Any wall standing between you and God's promises for your life, family and business will crumble in the mighty name of Jesus name.
A WAY TO SALVATION
In the throes of death, Jesus shouted on the cross of Calvary
"...Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? (Matt 27:46b). God turned his back and Satan taught he had won. If only he knew!! God allowed His only begotten son to spill his blood for the remission of the sin of human kind. God made a way for the redemption of man. His blood purchased man from the bondage of sin and Satan. You too can be free if your accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. He is the only way to heaven and the father. Acts 4:12 says: "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."
JESUS IS THE WAY
Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way..." Jesus is the way God has made for your redemption. Can't you not see it?
PRAYER:
Father, please make a way for me by your mercy. Pull me out of the wilderness of life in Jesus name.
God bless you. Shalom.
