The Birth Of Praise And Worship (Exodus 15:1-21) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 29, 2022

When God rescues, our natural response is to praise. And here, that's exactly what happens.

Between A Rock And A Hard Place Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000

At the Red Sea Israel disovered that God was at work, using the created order to achieve his purposes - to rescue his people from an impossible situation and bring about a great victory that would be remembered by the Israelites, and others, for all time.

Israel were afraid. A paralysing fear, so great that all they could do was cry out in terror to God. Do you know what that’s like? When things seem so dark and there’s no way out, nothing you can do?

God is wanting to do something awesome and powerful in your life, but it starts by giving him what you have in your hand.

What was significant about this stick was: It was what Moses had. Note: God did not ask Moses what he didn’t have. We could all make a long ...read more
