“And the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left.” Exodus 14:22

For decades, the dependents of Abraham, Issac and Jacob were bound in slavery in Egypt. When God brings forth their rescue, it didn’t exactly look like they expected. On their way out of town they find themselves backed up against the sea as the Egyptian army marches forth to kill them. Death by drowning, or, death by sword,

What Kind Of Miracle Is This?

God could have certainly kept the army bay. He could have softened Pharaoh’s heart, so much so that the army never even pursued them. Yet, what the Israelites couldn’t see with human eyes was the experience that God wanted them to walk through. The experience of walking through parted waters was about to demonstrate that nothing is impossible with God. How often in life do we pray, and pray again, all while grumbling and complaining when God guides our lives in unexpected ways. “What kind of rescue is this?” we ask. The answer is that we are told to walk by faith and not by sight. The Israelites could not “see” the entirety of the miracle while they were in the middle of living through it. So too, you cannot see the miracle that God has in store for you, and is leading you through at this very moment!
