“Stand Still!”

“Spiritual forces cannot work while earthly forces are active.”
I was reminded of that truth yesterday in my reading of Streams in the Desert. Today it was punctuated yet again by riveting words by C.H. Spurgeon. In the condensed form, Spurgeon wrote the following based on Exodus 14:13 “Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord”:
These words contain God’s command to the believer when he is reduced to great straits and brought into extraordinary difficulties. He cannot retreat; he cannot go forward; he is shut upon the right hand and on the left. What is he now to do?
The Master’s word to him is “stand still.”
