Exodus 15
Most of this chapter is of the people of Isreal basically singing a song of thanks and praise to the Lord. The two things that I picked out that I liked the most from the song they were singing were these two verses:
Exodus 15:2
"The Lord is my strength and my song; he has given me victory"
-Again for me, the red sea was not parted so that I could walk through it free of harm, and my enemies could be destroyed, but I have been saved by the Lord, and he is my strength. God is where my hope and my strength come from.. so thats why I liked that verse:)
Exodus 15:11
"Who is like you among the gods, O Lord--Glorious in holiness, awesome in splendor, performing great wonders?
-This to me is basically, affirming the face that all other gods that people believe in, and that people say exist are nothing like my God. That my Lord is glorious and holy, and awesome in splendor, and that God can do things that no other "gods" can do.
Then, towards the end of the chapter Moses takes the people of Israel, and they walk through a desert for three nights, and they come across an oasis, but they discover that they can't drink from it.. because it is not clean.. so all of the people turned on Moses, and Moses prayed to God trhat he would supply them with something to drink, so the Lord supplied Moses with wood, and when he put the wood in the water it cleaned to water so it could be healthily drunk. Then God tells that, that this is him testing them.. if they will have faith in him that they will never have to go through the sickness and stuff that he put on the Egyptians.
