A Sign of God’s Power

Carter Conlon

June 22, 2024

When God sent Moses back to Egypt to set his people free, they had known 400 years of captivity. That generation and their parents and their grandparents had never known anything other than this dominant, oppressive culture telling them when to go to bed, when to get up, what to think, the parameters around their behavior. They probably lived with the constant mockery of people saying, “You’re supposed to be the children of God. If that is true, why are you being dominated by us? Where is your God? Where is the strength of your God?”

I know that believers today fight those thoughts all the time. Many who have known Christ their whole life still have the devil whispering into their hearts, “If you really are a child of God, why do you struggle the way you do? Where is he now when you really need him?”

Look at how God answered this question for the Israelites. “Aaron spoke all the words which the Lord had spoken to Moses. Then he did the signs in the sight of the people. So the people believed; and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel and that he had looked on their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped” (Exodus 4:30-31, NKJV). 

When we walk into a situation and we’re not there in our own strength, when we give God the glory and we’re not there for ourselves, we can see God move. God is calling us to face our greatest fears oftentimes. I know what this is about. I suffered from panic attacks for nine years. It was nine years of hell on earth, sometimes even being taken to hospital by ambulance because of this affliction.

One night, I found myself in the midst of one of these panic attacks, and I finally said, “Satan, you can only kill me if God allows you to; and if he does, heaven is my home tonight. In life or death, I win.” A heat went through my whole body, and God delivered me in a moment. 

This deliverance was not in the natural or by men’s power, and so will be your deliverance. God will look upon your affliction, and his power will heal.
