Why Do You Cry To Me?

Why Do You Cry To Me???

And the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward." Exodus 14:15

“Why do you cry to Me,” jumped off the page at me! I went back and read the whole account and found that God had prepared and told Moses what was soon to take place. Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and camp before Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon; you shall camp before it by the sea. For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, ‘They are bewildered by the land; the wilderness has closed them in.’ Then I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, so that he will pursue them; and I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, that the Egyptians may know that I am the Lord.” And they did so. Ex 14:1-4

It was all made known except for the tiny bit of information of how they were going to be spared, when Pharaoh and his army were on one side and the sea was literally on the other side. God was expecting them to listen, obey and then trust Him WITHOUT all the vital information! “You have Me and you have My assurance that you will prevail! Trust Me.” “So they were very afraid, and the children of Israel cried out to the Lord. Then they said to Moses, ‘Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you so dealt with us, to bring us up out of Egypt?’” Ex 14:10b-11 But God’s response was, “Why do you cry to Me?” Is He asking you and me the same thing? “I gave you my Word! I have already told you! I sent you my Spirit to instruct you! My Son died for and healed you! What more do you need or want? Why do you cry unto Me?” His Word that He so graciously gave us, tells us all we need to know. Don’t weary Him with unbelief! Just believe what He already said!
