STREAMS IN THE DESERT by L.B. COWMAN

The LORD said to Moses, " . . . Tell the Israelites to move
on. Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the
sea." (Exodus 14:15-16)

Dear child of God, just imagine that triumphal march!
Picture the excited children being constantly hushed and restrained by their parents from their outbursts of wonder.
Think how the women must have experienced an
uncontrollable excitement as they found themselves
suddenly saved from a fate worse than death. Imagine
how the men who accompanied them must have felt
ashamed and admonished for mistrusting God and for
complaining against Moses. And as you envision the Red
Sea's mighty walls of water, separated by the outstretched
hand of the Eternal in response to the faith of a single man,
learn what God will do for His own.
Never dread any consequence resulting from absolute
obedience to His command. Never fear the rough waters
ahead, which through their proud contempt impede your
progress. God is greater than the roar of raging water and
the mighty waves of the sea. "The LORD sits enthroned over
the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever"
(Psalm 29:10). A storm is simply the hem of His robe, the
sign of His coming, and the evidence of His presence.
DARE TO TRUST HIM! DARE TO FOLLOW HIM!
Then discover that the forces that blocked your progress
and threatened your life become at His command the very
materials He uses to build your street of freedom.
(F.B. Meyer)

Have you come to the Red Sea place in your life, where,
in spite of all you can do, there is no way out, there is no
way back, there is no other way but through? Then wait
on the Lord with a trust serene till the night of your fear is
gone; He will send the wind, He will heap the floods, when
He says to your soul, "Move on."
And His hand will lead you through --- clear through ---
Ere the watery walls roll down, no foe can reach you, no
wave touch you, no mightiest sea can drown; the tossing
billows may rear their crests, their foam at your feet may break, but o'er the seabed you will walk dry ground in the
path that your Lord will make.
In the morning watch, 'neath the lifted cloud, you will see
but the Lord alone, when He leads you on from the place
of the sea to a land that you have not known; and your
fears will pass as your foes have passed, you will be no
more afraid; you will sing His praise in a better place, a
place that His hand has made. (Annie Johnson Flint)

STREAMS IN THE DESERT by L.B. COWMAN

I have prayed for you . . . that your faith may not fail.
(Luke 22:32)

Dear Christian, remember to take good care of your faith,
for faith is the only way to obtain God's blessings. Prayer
alone cannot bring answers down from His throne, because
it is the earnest prayer of one who believes that leads to
answers.
Faith is the communication link between heaven and
earth. It is on this link of faith that God's messages of love
travel so quickly that even before we ask, He answers. And
while we are still speaking, "He hears us" (1 John 5:14).
So, when the connection of faith is broken, how will we
obtain His promises?
Am I in trouble? I can receive help by expressing faith.
Am I being battered by the enemy? My soul will find refuge
by leaning in faith upon God. But without faith, I call to Him
in vain, for faith is the only road between my soul and
heaven. If the road is blocked, how can I communicate
with the great King?
Faith links me to Holy God and clothes me with the
power of Jehovah. Faith insures me that each of His
attributes will be used in my defense, helping me to defy
the host of hell. It causes me to match triumphantly over
the necks of my enemies. So, without faith, how can I
receive anything from the Lord?
Therefore, O Christian, carefully watch your faith.
"Everything is possible for him who believes" (Mark 9:23).
(Charles H. Spurgeon)
We as a people take such pride in being so practical
that we want something more sure than faith. Yet Paul
said, "The promise comes by FAITH, so that it may . . .
be GUARANTEED" (Romans 4:16). (David Crawford)
Faith honors God, and God honors faith.

MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON

Do not neglect your gift...1 Timothy 4:14

Whenever we live prayerless lives we are neglecting, we
are vacating, our office. What would we think if we went
downtown in one of our cities, only to find desks closed and
office doors locked, businessmen neglecting their office,
the work they had undertaken? It is no different with
Christians when they are neglectful of prayer. The work to which they have been officially called and appointed
remains undone.
Moreover, we are not alone in this work. When Jesus
ascended on high, it was to take upon Himself the office
work of High Priest. It is an office with a real work, an
age-long task --- "He ever liveth to make intercession."
In appointing us to the office of priests He is privileging
us to share His work. He asks us to take part of it upon
ourselves. This is just what we do when we engage in
prayer. How glorious the task! Surely, we will not neglect
it. (Norman B Harrison)

PRAY ABOUT IT: The specific prayer life to which you are
called is glorious. It is your assignment, your gift. We must
not vacate our posts of prayer. The task is magnificent,
the rewards --- both here and in eternity --- are beyond
description.
Take up your office today with joy!

Every work of God can be traced to some kneeling form.
(Dwight L. Moody)
