You Are Where God Wants You to Be – Part 3

“God spoke to Moses: 2 "Tell the Israelites to turn around and make camp at Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea. Camp on the shore of the sea opposite Baal Zephon.”
As Christians, you should not be surprised when faced with challenges. 1 Peter 4:12 MSG “Friends, when life gets really difficult, don't jump to the conclusion that God isn't on the job.” Jesus warned us that, in this world you will have tribulation (John 16:33). He also said, ‘Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.’ God allows our faith to be tried, and sometimes, they seem more than we can bear. Remember, God has a Purpose in our life and there are no mistakes in God’s Plan.
You are where you are, by God’s appointment, in His keeping, under His Training and for His Time. Psalm 37:23-24 AMP “The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step]. 24 Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him.”
He has promised never to leave you nor forsake you. So, if you find yourself in a difficult spot, remember that you are there by God’s appointment. Even though the evidence is to the contrary, your Red Sea is about to split. Know that the same God that led you in will lead you out.
