Standing Still at Your Red Sea

May 20, 2026    Bishop Calvin M. Hooper

Reading: Exodus 14:10-14; Isaiah 43:1-2


Devotional: When Israel faced the Red Sea with Pharaoh's army behind them, they panicked and forgot God's faithfulness. Fear has a way of erasing the memory of God's past deliverances. Moses' instruction remains relevant: "Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord." Your impossible situation isn't evidence that God has abandoned you—it's the stage He's chosen to reveal His power. Sometimes God leads you to a place where no human solution exists so that when deliverance comes, only He gets the glory.


The obstacle before you may be God's opportunity to show you what He can do. Don't let fear convince you to go backward when God is preparing to bring you through.


Reflection Question: What "Red Sea" are you facing that requires you to stand still and trust God?
