The God Who Triumphs (8 of 16)
Series: Exodus

Exodus 15
Intro/Attention
We are studying the book of Exodus on Sundays in a sermon series I've entitled, Who Is This God? Today, from Exodus 15, we see that our God is The God Who Triumphs. God is completely and ultimately victorious in all things. And if you are a child of God, you are on the winning team!
This is a song of praise to the God who triumphs. Some scholars have tried to argue that a song is out of place in Exodus 15. It doesn't add anything to the plot, they say, but rather interrupts the flow of the Biblical narrative; it must have been added later. Anyone who says that probably never experienced genuine redemption and salvation. Because what we see in Exodus 15 is a natural response to what we see in Exodus 14.
God's people had been miraculously delivered through the Red Sea. They walked across the sea on dry ground as the waters walled up beside them on either side. Then, God divinely destroyed their deadly enemies. Not only did God rescue them from slavery and bondage, He destroyed their greatest enemy and the biggest threat to their existence. So, the people rejoiced and worshiped God! READ 1-3, 11-13, 18-21
*In 1792 a group of settlers traveled to Africa. There were more than a thousand of them, all of African descent. Some had worked as slaves on American plantations. Others had served as soldiers in the British army and then moved north to live in Canada. Together they planned to resettle what is now Sierra Leone, on land purchased as a Province of Freedom. The settlers were all professing Christians. When they reached Africa, they marched ashore singing a hymn by William Hammond (1719-1783), the song ''Awake, and Sing the Song'':
Awake, and sing the song, Of Moses and the Lamb!
Wake every heart and every tongue, To praise the Savior's Name....
Sing on your heavenly way! Ye ransomed sinners, sing!
Sing on, rejoicing every day
In Christ, the eternal K ...
