Exodus 15
September 16, 2021
We last saw the children of Israel crossing the Red Sea. In Exodus 15, the Song of Moses recounts their trials, their story of redemption, and their thankfulness to God for deliverance. Soon, their joyful songs of praise faded into tired, bitter complaints as they found themselves weary with thirst. Discover how the cross of Christ can turn even life’s bitter “Marah moments” sweet.

Galatians Bible Companion
Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

What would you do if following God’s direction landed you between 600 Egyptian chariots and the Red Sea? Lose faith? That’s exactly what the Israelites did. Moses reminded his people to be courageous and that “the Lord will fight for you.” See how God kept His promise to fight for Israel and fully delivered them from the Egyptians—this time, for good.

Imagine being able to physically see God directing your steps. It would certainly be easier to follow Him. God gave the children of Israel His visible presence—pillars of cloud and fire—to comfort and guide them along this new journey. Follow along as Dr. McGee covers more about the Passover, the Promised Land, and (surprise) Pharoah’s once-again hardened heart.

While the Passover was a monumental night for those who put their faith in God, it was a tragic night for many Egyptians. Defeated and afraid, Pharoah finally surrendered. Almost instantly, the Israelites were hurried out of the land of Egypt. Their exit was so rushed, they had to eat their unleavened bread on the go. And so, at the end of Exodus 12, we see God’s people—hurried and unprepared—finally leaving Egypt behind.

Get ready to see Christ in the Old Testament. Exodus 12 recounts one of the most important moments in Israel’s history—the Passover, the birth of Israel as a nation. God promised to redeem those who put their faith in His blood alone, and He still keeps that promise today.

In Exodus 10, Egypt faced the worst plague yet—locusts. This plague was so bad that Pharoah finally admitted, “I have sinned against the Lord your God.” Upon this admission, God sent the locusts away. When Pharoah’s heart hardened once again, darkness fell over Egypt, and God promised to bring one final judgment to the land of Egypt.

What would it take to get you to surrender to God? Pharoah opted to endure physical agony—the plague of boils—rather than obey God. Why did God tolerate Pharoah? Why must the story unfold this way? God could have snapped His fingers and set the Israelites free. Instead, He used Pharoah’s stubborn, wicked heart to demonstrate His sacred power and ultimate authority.

Warning: Along this stop on the Bible Bus, we will encounter dead cattle, flies, lice, and a whole lot of frogs. Are you in? Each of these nasty plagues can teach us something significant about the ancient gods of Egypt and, in turn, about the idols we harbor in our own hearts today.

“Let the plagues begin.” Hard-hearted Pharoah refused to let God’s people go, resulting in the first of the ten plagues. Egypt’s entire water supply was turned to blood—a plague directed at the Egyptian god of the Nile. Follow along as Dr. McGee teaches about Egypt’s false gods, Pharoah’s hardened heart, and God’s righteous judgment.

God gives us everything we need, yet sometimes we still hesitate to follow Him. Not only does God remind Moses of who He is, but He gives Moses His detailed action plan: The seven “I Will’s” of redemption. Even after hearing these powerful, life-changing promises, Moses still hesitated. Notice how God patiently reassures Moses of his calling. Find comfort in the fact that today God has that same kind of patience with you!

We left off with Pharoah’s important question, “Who is the Lord?” Pharoah refused to acknowledge God and instead made life in Egypt worse for God’s people. Because of this, Moses and his people began to doubt and lose sight of God’s promise. But God—patient and strong—reminds Pharoah, Moses, the children of Israel, and even us today exactly who He is: Jehovah. The self-existing One. He alone is the LORD.
