Exodus 15 – A Praise Team With Praise Dancers
Below are parts of the song broken down into sections.
Singing God’s Attributes and Promises
God is gloriously triumphant.
The Lord is my strength, song, and salvation. He is my God and my father’s God.
The Lord is a man of war; The Lord is His name.
God’s right hand is glorious in power.
There is greatness in God’s excellence.
A blast from God’s nostrils caused the waters to gather together; the floods stood upright like a heap; the depths congealed in the heart of the sea.
God is a merciful, strong Leader and Redeemer who led the Israelites to His holy habitation.
There is greatness in the arm of the Lord.
God would take His people and plant them in the mountain of His inheritance, the place He made for His own dwelling, the sanctuary His hands established. (A Promise Keeper)
The Lord reigns forever and ever.
The children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea. (A Way Maker)
Defeat of the Enemies
God threw the horses and riders into the sea.
God cast Pharaoh’s chariots and army into the sea; Pharaoh’s chosen captains drowned in the Red Sea. The depths covered them and they sank to the bottom like a stone.
God’s right hand dashed the enemy in pieces.
God overthrew those who rose against Him. He sent His wrath and it consumed them like stubble.
The enemy said they would pursue, overtake and divide the spoil. They thought that what they desired would happen to the Israelites – drawing their sword and destroying them. God blew with His wind and the sea covered them and they sank like lead in the mighty waters.
God stretched out His right hand and the earth swallowed the enemies.
The people will hear and be afraid. The people in Philistia will be overtaken with sorrow.
The chiefs of Edom will be dismayed. Trembling will take hold of the mighty men of Moab. All of the inhabitants of Canaan will melt away. Fear and dread will fall on them. The enemies will be as still as a stone until God’s people, Whom He purchased passed over.
The horses of Pharaoh went with his chariots and his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought back the sea upon them.
Praising God In Song and Dance
I will praise Him. I will exalt Him.
They sang, “Who is like You, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like You, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders?”
Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took the timbrel in her hand. All the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. (Praise Dancers)
Miriam answered them singing, “Sing to the Lord, For He has triumphed gloriously! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea!” (Background Singer)
Moses brought the children of Israel from the Red Sea out into the Wilderness of Shur. They were in the wilderness for three days and found no water. They came to a place called Marah, but they couldn’t drink the waters of Marah because they were bitter. Hence, the name Marah. The people complained against Moses, asking, “What shall we drink?” What happened to all of the praise singing and dancing? When we face uncertain situations, we must remember that God is still God and God is still good! Moses cried out to the Lord and the Lord showed him a tree. When Moses cast it into the waters, they became sweet. It was there that the Lord made a statute and an ordinance for them. It was there that the Lord tested them saying, “If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord who heals you.” Would you pass God’s test of listening to His voice by doing what is right in His sight, following His commandments and keeping His statutes?
Then they came to Elim. There were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees. They camped there by the waters. The children of Israel were complaining. Now, Just Look At God!
Next week, we journey onto Exodus 16.
To God Be The Glory!
