Brokenness: The Evidence of God's Activity in Your Life
by Rick Ferguson
Question: If you went through a time of intense pain and suffering and disappointment, and you prayed and prayed and prayed--yet nothing seemed to happen--and no relief came, How Would You Interpret That? *Would you wonder if God had abandoned you, r*Would you see that as God's customized activity in your life? Would you interpret your pain and unanswered prayers as God's Abandonment or God's Activity? I suspect if we were honest, every one of us has been through an episode in life exactly like I just described and probably everyone of us has at least once in our lives become discouraged and distraught and felt as though...
Are You Under The Blood?
by Jerry Vines
The land of Egypt lies in ruins. A successive series of plagues has been sent by the Lord to show the land of Egypt that the Lord God is indeed God. Moses had gone before Pharaoh and had given the command of God, ''Let my people go.'' With a sneer on his face Pharaoh had replied, ''Who is the Lord, I don't know the Lord.'' So, the Lord just seems to say, I'll introduce myself. And in seven plagues the Lord God demonstrates the total futility of the gods of Egypt and their helplessness to withstand him. When it is all over the Israelites and also the Egyptians know that the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. Now it is time for the tenth and the final...
Life Lessons from the Red Sea Miracle
by Ernest Easley
Now take God's Word and turn with me to the book of Exodus where God is teaching us these days ''the way out.'' You say, ''the way out of what?'' Well ... the way out of bondage! The way out of addictions. The way out of your godless lifestyle that is robbing you of peace and joy. It's much easier to say ''yes'' to the things of God in here than it is to say ''no'' to the things of the world out there. Isn't it? It's easier to find the way into bondage than it is to find the way out of bondage. Now look with me to chapter 13. The children of Israel and the Egyptians just experienced the Passover. God said, ''When I see the blood, I will Passover over you.'' The same...
Detours, Dead Ends, And Dry Holes
by Adrian Rogers
Take your Bibles please and turn would you to Exodus chapter 13. Exodus chapter 13. I want to speak to you today on this subject detours, dead ends and dry holes. I am reading Exodus chapter 13 and verse 17, "And it came to pass when Pharaoh had let the people go that God led them." We'll just stop right there and in a moment we're going to read a whole lot more. But just keep your Bibles opened. But notice the fact, God led them. He leadeth me, o blessed thought, words with heavenly comfort fraught. He leadeth me. Aren't you glad that God does lead us? That the Bible says, "As many as are led by the Spirit of God are the sons...
Escape From Egypt! (5 of 9)
by Dennis Marquardt
INTRO: The greatest tyranny on our planet is not communism, fascism, or any other type of political system. It never has been! It isn't dictatorships, as horrible as many of them are! The greatest enslavement of humans has not been in the political arena as much as it has been in the heart! The greatest slavery man has known since the dawn of time is SIN! This problem of slavery is still with us today. It is so powerful that our entire human race is held without hopes of freedom, is there an escape from SIN? - YES! Israel in Egypt symbolized man's enslavement by sin. God had to make a way of escape because Israel could not free herself...
Passover Explains Communion
by Duane Bemis
Let us embark upon another journey into God's Word to find His answer about the Lord's Table, or about the giving of the wine and the bread at communion. As I studied this sanctioned sacrament, the Lord said it is all about "Passover." I then opened my Bible to the Gospel of Matthew and read:Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, that He said to His disciples, "You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified." (Matthew 26:1-2) And there I read the word PASSOVER. I know all about the Passover when Israel was in Egypt and God did a marvelous thing in their...
Remember the Day You Came Out of Egypt (1 of 14)
by Dennis Marquardt
INTRO: What would life be like without memory? To find out you only have to find someone with Alzheimer's disease. It is a hideous disease that robs a person of their memory, eventually their memory of literally everything disappears, even their memory of how to swallow food, and finally death. Memory plays one of the most important functions in order for us to be truly human! The inability to remember the past invites chaos into the present and means an uncertain future without meaning. It is for this reason that we find many of the commands and stories in the Bible prefaced with: "Remember ..." "Recital" of the past is often a...
The Book Of Exodus Chapter 13-14 (10 of 26)
by Harley Howard
All of the firstborn of the nation, both man and beast, belonged to God. The firstborn was to be set apart for God. We will address the issue of the firstborn when we get to verse 11. Verses 3-10 reiterates the ordinance of the Passover. Read vss 3-10 The first thing Moses tells them to do is to remember what God has done. Why are we so easy to forget what God has done whenever we come up against trials? Also we see the promise of God to bring the people into the promised land, described as the land flowing with milk and honey. Although inhabited, the land would be Israel's because of the promise of God. The ordinance of the...

The Crossing of the Red Sea
by Tony Nester
Today we continue our series on The Key Stories of the Bible. We've come to the story of The Crossing of the Red Sea. This is one of the most famous miracle stories in the Bible. As with other miracle stories there are those of us who ask, "What really happened?" I remember a story about a young boy whose mother was making him go to Sunday School against his wishes. He claimed that Sunday School was boring. His mother knew that the lesson that day was on Moses and the crossing of the Red Sea. She figured that lesson would spark some interest in her boy, so she asked him on their way home, "What did you learn in Sunday...
God Gets the Final Word - Always!
by Dennis Marquardt
INTRO: Israel discovered that after 400 years in Egypt the culture had shifted from Joseph’s days of a strong spiritual influence on a nation to a nation whose new Pharaohs ‘‘knew not Joseph.’’ As the culture around them changed dramatically, they settled in to survival mode … which made them slaves! In this new culture we discovered they were living in a nation that was deeply religious, but not godly; that embraced many gods … except of course the God of Israel; and Israel was more and more hated by the Egyptians, and thus the Egyptians were abusing them. Israel in this condition had learned to simply cry … and survive. They...
Pharaoh: "(Great House) the Man Who Came between God and His People'' (2 of 7)
by Richard Bradley
13 And Moses said to the people, ''Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. 14 The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.'' 15 And the LORD said to Moses, ''Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. 16 But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. 17 And I indeed will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them. So I will gain honor over Pharaoh...
Don't Let Your Guard Down - Part 1 (4 of 7)
by Lenny Ports
The crisis in the world today is how are we going to stop the terrorist group called ISIS. Should we attack by land or by air? What about this weird outbreak of ebola virus? Is it some kind of biological warfare? Should we be living in a state of fear regarding what might come upon this nation? How many know we are fighting a war? But the warfare that we are in is not against flesh and blood. It is not in the physical realm. It is in the spiritual realm. It takes place in the invisible. What about on the home front, in our own personal lives? We may not be fighting terrorist groups, but we may be fighting our own war against terror and fear. We...
Crossing the Sea (8 of 12)
by Dave Gustavsen
Good morning. We're taking this winter to go through the book of Exodus-the second book in the Bible-both the Christian Bible and the Jewish Bible. And the reason we chose to focus on this book is that in so many ways, the story of the Israelites is our story. The things they struggled with are the things we struggle with. And the things God had to teach them are exactly the same things has to teach us. And the ways that God led them are the same ways that God leads us…which is what we're going to talk about today. But first let's just do a one-minute review of where we've been…430 years earlier, the nation of Israel had started as...
Onward
by T. De Witt Talmage
"Masterly retreat" is a term often used in military circles, but in religion there is no such thing. It is either glorious advance or disgraceful and ignominious falling back. I address the more than three hundred members added today, and indeed all Christians, in the order given to the Israelites by the Lord through Moses: "Go forward."It would be a strange thing if all our anxiety about men ceased the moment they were converted. You would almost doubt the sanity of the farmer who, having planted the corn and seen it just sprout above ground, should say: "My work is all done. I have no more anxiety for the field." No. There...
Sometimes It's Tough, But It Is Too Soon to Quit
by Robert Walker
When descending the Grand Canyon, often times a person has to travel on narrow ledges that have only enough room for a mule to get a foothold. The ribbons of rock that run along the edges of these towering cliffs overlook vertical precipices that descend hundreds of feet to the valley below. When one must make use of these stony paths, the safest course is to let the mule find his own way; for the slightest touch on the bridle may easily throw both the animal and his rider over the cliff to sudden death. So it is in the believer's life. In some circumstances, if he would keep himself from having sinful doubts and falling into despair, he...
One Way Out (3 of 4)
by James Merritt
Introduction: 1. My absolute favorite subject in school from the first grade until the time I finished college was American History. To this day, I am always reading some book on American History, because I believe our nation's founding and birth is not only one of the fascinating stories in all of history, but I believe our nation's founding has the fingerprints of the providence of God. 2. No nation in the history of this planet has a more fascinating history than the Nation of Israel. To give you the Readers Digest version, God called a man by the name of Abraham, who was somewhat of a pagan, living in a pagan country, to follow Him to...
The Saving Power Of The Substitute (5 of 16)
by Ernest Easley
There is a scarlet thread that runs throughout the Bible. And yet... somebody says, ''I have no use for the Old Testament! The New Testament is enough for me.'' The Old Testament and New Testament are inseparable and here is why: they are bound together with a scarlet thread! And that scarlet thread is the blood covenant that God cut with man! It began with Adam in Genesis 3.21, ''Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.'' From Adam it went to Abel in Genesis 4.4, ''Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of their fat. And the Lord respected Abel and his offering.'' And...
First Passover
by Stephen Whitney
In a letter to his wife Abigail, John Adams told her of the actions of the Continental Congress on July 2, 1776 (the actual day the Declaration of Independence was signed). “This second day of July, 1776 will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized . . . from this time forward forever.” While we celebrate July 4th as our independence day the nation of Israel celebrates their...
