Stop seeing obstacles!

“And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.” Exodus 14:15-16KJV

The difference between those who walk in victory and those who remain stuck is often their perspective. The children of Israel stood before the Red Sea, seeing an impassable barrier, but God saw a pathway to their deliverance. He told Moses to stop crying and command the people to move forward (Exodus 14:15-16). Likewise, when Joshua led Israel to the Jordan, the waters only parted when the priests stepped in by faith (Joshua 3:13). The walls of Jericho did not fall until the Israelites obeyed God's instruction and marched around them (Joshua 6:1-5). Blind Bartimaeus refused to see the crowd as an obstacle; instead, he cried out louder until Jesus responded (Mark 10:47-52). The woman with the issue of blood did not focus on the difficulty of reaching Jesus through the crowd; she pressed through and touched the hem of His garment, receiving her healing (Mark 5:25-34). The key to victory is to fix your eyes on God’s promises, not on the obstacles before you.

Your goals are within reach, but you must move in faith. When the disciples faced a hungry multitude with only five loaves and two fish, they could have focused on what they lacked. Instead, Jesus took what was available, gave thanks, and multiplied it to feed thousands (Matthew 14:17-20). David did not see Goliath as an undefeatable giant but as an opportunity to manifest God's power (1 Samuel 17:45-50). The only limitations in your life are the ones you allow. If you are willing and obedient, nothing can stop you (Isaiah 1:19). This is your season to step out, break barriers, and accomplish what seemed impossible. Move forward, trust God, and see obstacles turn into stepping stones in Jesus’ name!

Prophetic word: Thus says the Lord, “Stop seeing obstacles, for I have already made a way before you. Do not be paralyzed by fear, for the Red Sea before you will part as you take a step forward. I am the God who makes a way where there is no way (Isaiah 43:19). The walls before you are not barriers but divine setups for your victory. As you obey My voice and step out in faith, you will see doors open, battles won, and impossibilities bow before you. What seemed unreachable will become attainable, and what appeared closed will swing open before you. You will not be put to shame, for I am your strength, your provider, and your shield (Isaiah 41:10).” Go forth, for your season of manifestation has come! In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You because You are the God who makes the impossible possible. Today, I align my heart with Your Word, refusing to see obstacles, barriers, or impossibilities. Lord, just as You parted the Red Sea before Israel and caused the Jordan to stop flowing before the feet of the priests, I declare that every hindrance before me gives way in Jesus’ name! I decree that no weapon formed against my destiny shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Every wall of Jericho standing in my way collapses, and every mountain before me becomes a plain (Zechariah 4:7). I receive divine courage to pursue my dreams, to step into new territories, and to possess my inheritance in Christ. In Jesus' mighty name, I pray. Amen!
