Exo 14:19,20 Then the angel of God, who had been traveling in front of Israel’s army, withdrew and went behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from in front and stood behind them, coming between the armies of Egypt and Israel. Throughout the night the cloud brought darkness to the one side and light to the other side; so neither went near the other all night long.
After Israel departed from slavery, the Egyptian – all Pharaoh’s horses and chariots, horsemen and troops – pursued the Israelites and overtook them as they camped by the sea near Pi Hahiroth , opposite Baal Zephon. As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians, marching after them.
Its at this point that the Lord engaged the heavenly guards to take charge of His chosen people. The angel of the Lord and the pillar of cloud moved to the rear to separate them from the pursuing enemy.
There are certain stubborn enemies that will purpose to pursue us in the new year. May the angel of the Lord encamp around those who fear him and deliver them. (Psa 34:7) May the Lord separate us from the pursuing enemies of 2020. May he separate us from pain ,fear of covid , economic lameness and uncertainties .
