Healing Eden, Part 10: Trapped by the Red Sea

Today we turn our attention to events immediately following the exodus - as Israel makes her escape from centuries of slavery in Egypt. For God has acted with mighty power to save, and our first imagination is that - under divine care - Israel will be safe evermore. But as Israel flees into the Sinai desert, she soon discovers that Pharaoh is in pursuit with the full might of the Egyptian army. And as the Egyptian chariots approach, Israel finds herself trapped by the Red Sea. And has her toes touch the water, Israel - and we - are forced to learn an essential lesson of the life of faith: in this age, salvation is not so much a once-for-all event, but a process by which God continually rescues his beloved people. If you've ever felt trapped in your own life and circumstances between the Red Sea in front and the Egyptian army behind, this is the sermon for you! Have a thought? A comment? A question?
