Indecision can get us in trouble. Jacob (Israel) wanted his sons to get on with it. Jacob is basically saying, ‘we can sit around here and starve, or go to a country we don’t want to go to and hope to get food’. When things are dire, sometimes any action is better than doing nothing at all.
It turned out that Jacob was unknowingly sending his sons to meet the brother they thought they sold into slavery, who now governed over all of Egypt. What Jacob thought of as a ‘Hail Mary’ shot at not starving, God used as a ‘come to Joseph’ meeting...
God doesn’t always tell us what the end result will be, but we know that following Him is the only way to find the right and best ending to our story.
The Lord Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm. (Exodus 14:14)
