j g bellettThe Moral Glories of Our Lord -  A devotion regarding the Moral Glory in the character of the Lord Jesus.  All of his life went up to God as a sacrifice of sweet savour. Every expression of Himself in every measure, however small, and in whatever relationship it was rendered, was incense to his father.  Whatever Adam lacked, the Lord fulfilled completely in his perfect life.  J G Bellett was a brother from the United Kingdeom who wrote his works in the 1800's. 
Sunday School Lesson 212 Crossing the Red Sea Print E-mail

Lesson: 212 Lesson Name: The Red Sea
Theme: Salvation: Provision For All

Reading: Exodus 13:17-22; 14:1-31

Memory Verse: Exodus 14:13
Memory Verse Text: Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.

Point 1: God gave His people the reward of gold borrowed from the Egyptians as payment for their labor.  Now, God miraculously and personally led them with fire by night and a pillar of cloud by day.  The fire and pillar of cloud were more than just symbols; they meant that God was with them.  God still desires and is able to lead today through His Word.
Point 2: Pharaoh's heart was "changed" in Ex. 14:5 causing him to take his army to pursue the released Israelites.  In line with God's plan, the Israelites began to wail and doubt (Ex. 14:10).  Pharaoh might have had all the weapons, soldiers, and chariots, but the Israelites had the Lord with them.  Somehow, neither the Egyptians, nor the Israelites, saw the Lord.
Point 3: The Israelites witnessed another great miracle when Moses stretched the rod out and the Red Sea parted.  While all of Israel passed through, God confused the Egyptians and hid the Israelites from their revenge.  When the rod is stretched out again, one simple act of God brought the feared enemies to nothing.  What a great God we have!
Point 4: Note what Israel saw in Ex. 14:30,31, as well as their song in Ex. 15.  Only the saved really have something to sing about: "Isn't He wonderful?"
