S5 Episode 3: Stories from the Wilderness - Week 2 (Exodus 14-15)

In this podcast, Erin Warren teaches on Exodus 14-15. In Exodus 14, the Israelites experience one of the greatest and most well-known miracles in all of the Bible: the crossing of the Red Sea. While we love to make this a story of miraculous rescue and use it to show how God miraculously can also rescue us from the seemingly "no way out" circumstances, we must continue to remember this is a story about God's character. And His call to us in this story is not to sit and watch but hear and move.  We learn that where we look matters, and the result of this miracle leads the people of God toward belief and worship.But we are most vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy when we are rejoicing in victory. In Exodus 15, we see a song of praise melt into shouts of complaint at Marah. The people are thirsty, but God is after our hearts. He provides not only sweet water, but a place of refreshment and rest. Both stories point us to the only source of our salvation: Jesus. We must continue to lock eyes on our Savior before us and not the circumstances around us.For more information on this study: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/WildernessFor recommended resources: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Resources⁠For more information on studying Scripture: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/HowTo⁠Erin's books and other studies: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Books⁠For speaking inquiries: ⁠FeastingOnTruth.com/Speaking
