Title: Entrust to God (Exodus 14:10-15)
Contents According to the Bible, when the Israelites came to the Red Sea after their exodus from Egypt, they grieved over these difficulties. In other words, the shore of the Red Sea is in front, and the sound of the hoofs of Egypt is heard in the back. But in times like these, Moses exclaimed, "Do not fear, see salvation."
1. Think of God's grace in the past.
When the people of Israel were living in Egypt, God heard his cry and set up a capable leader to miraculously bring them out of Egypt through various disasters. However, when Moses faced difficulties for a while, he went back and forth, wandering and wandering, “Stay still” to the wandering people of Israel is to think about the supernatural work of God in the past in Egypt, and to believe in the powerful God.
2. Don't be pessimistic about the present.
People are easily discouraged or resentful when faced with an emergency. Therefore, it becomes pessimistic and confused. This is a lack of faith and a disregard for the power of the living God. Here, the voice of “Stay still” is to think about how God can help you with your current difficulties, and do not be shaken to the left or right, but to rely on the God of faith. Because God brought the Israelites out of Egypt.
3. Fully commit to the future.
Imperfect humans cannot know the future clearly. Therefore, it is wise to rely on the Absolute God and entrust the future. The people of Israel clamored because they did not believe in the God who guides the future, and they did not fully entrust their lives to the word of God who brought them out of Egypt.
