Exodus 14:14 The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.

One thing I have never really liked is going shopping on a bank holiday day when you know the streets are going to be absolutely clogged with people trying to find a bargain!

Now we are all keeping ourselves at home, we have a very different Bank Holiday to look out to, one where we have to let others be in control.

When Moses led the people out of Egypt, he was told to tell them to allow God to be in control, to allow God to fight their battles.

Turn over the battles you are having and allow God to be in control!

Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

Where has God asked you to go in your life? If we are brave enough to listen and obey, our lives can be changed forever!

What has God asked you do do? If we accept He can give us the power and strength to do what He asks of us, our lives can be changed forever!

What are you doing about it? And there it is… it is up to us to step up to the mark and do and go for Christ – even if that is only to go next door!

Matthew 27:35 When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots.

Something struck me yesterday when I saw a picture of lots of pine coffins being buried in a mass grave due to this pandemic.

We like to be able to say goodbye to people when they die, and not being able to because of the fear of spreading the virus even more is something we are all going to struggle with over the next few days or weeks.

Jesus was still hanging on the cross when these guards gambled for His clothes – the true colours of many people come out during these times.

Watch and pray!
