He who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters - Isaiah 43:16.
The Israelites were very afraid when Pharaoh drew near and the Egyptians marched after them as there was no way of escape in the Red Sea. But God made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters. And when Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them. So they were very afraid, and the children of Israel cried out to the Lord - Exodus 14:10. Tell the children of Israel to go forward. But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea - Exodus 14:15,16.
The Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left. Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left - Exodus 14:21,22.
The Lord saved Israel from the hands of the Egyptians, and none of the Egyptians were survived. The water flowed back and covered the chariots and horsemen - the entire army of Pharaoh that had followed the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived. But the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left. That day the Lord saved Israel from the hands of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians lying dead on the shore - Exodus 14:28-30.
God made a way for Israelites where there was no way. His ways are higher than our ways. He will make a way for us like how He made a way through the sea and a path through the mighty waters for Israelites. Your way was in the sea, Your path in the great waters - Psalm 77:19. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts - Isaiah 55:8,9.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Great is Your faithfulness. We thank You for making a way for us like how You made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters for Israelites. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
