Exodus 15:23–25
23 When they came to bMarah, they could not drink the water of Marah because it was bitter; therefore it was named Marah.2 24 And the people cgrumbled against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?” 25 And he dcried to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a log,3and he ethrew it into the water, and the water became sweet.
There the Lord4 made for them a statute and a rule, and there he ftested them,
They were on a journey. They got to a stop, they were thirsty but they could not drink the water because it was bitter!
The bible doesn't tell us why the water was bitter but when Moses cried out to God,He gave Moses the solution.
Yes you didn't plan to meet such a challenge, you cannot seem to understand why it's there in the first place..You are wondering what you did wrong to deserve that problem.
Stop worrying about the why's and wherefore's and cry out to God for a solution.
We focus so much on trying to find out "why" that we pay less attention to finding a solution.
One of the greatest revelations in the bible is that a simple act of faith can unlock God's miraculous power.
The next time you have a problem you cannot resolve, remember that a simple act of faith can release the working power of God. Faith without works is dead.
Stop worrying about looking foolish to people because Moses must have looked like a classic fool to take a piece of wood and throw it into the water but guess what? The result was that everybody could drink the water .
Find Christ while He can be found because a time will come when you will look for Him and not find Him.
