Hear a few around have ripe RED SEA DELIVERANCE Lesson for July 24th Lesson Text: Exodus 14:10-16, 21, 22.—Golden Text: Exodus 15:12 The experience of God’s saving power in a life does not mean that the conflict with sin is at an end. : It explains why so many Christians fail in the hour of crisis. Here are two million former slaves, each one of whom had experienced in a marvelous way God’s delivering power. They had found peace aind security at a time when all Egypt was plunged in sorrow and tears, and yet, even with the memory of this mighty Passover* miracle, they are so soon in a panic of fear and distrust. With the Red Sea before i them and the pursuing Egyptian behind, they complained bitterly to God and to Moses. Thus often in the presence of physical, financial, or other peril do we forget that God is not limited in resources and 1 is equal to our every need. | Faith is paralyzed by fear. Faith is undermined when, like Israel, we dwell upon the difficulties before 1 us, substituting reason for depend ence upon God. While the sound of the chariot wheels of the Egypt ians draws nearer and nearer and the fear of Israel reaches despair, the most unexpected of all things ( takes place. Unable to turn back because of the pursuing host, hem med in by mountains on either side, lo! the Red Sea opens, a God-given highway stretches before them; so 1 that the slow moving host of men, 1 women, children, and beasts of i burden may pass over unharmed and in peace. The experience, as we shall find, is typical of all Israel’s journey- ings. When they were willing to obey the word of God and go for ward as the pillar of cloud led the way, their foes were always sub dued. Nothing could exceed the discomfiture of these Egyptians who, with their chariot wheels re moved, sank to death in the depths of the sea. The cloud which light ened the way of Israel was dark ness to the pursuing host. tXl Some birds’ eggs are pear shape, rather than egg shape.
