Psalm 77:16-20 “The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed. The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around. The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook. Your way was through the sea, your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known. You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.”

If we ever need a reminder of the fact that God is in control and that He cares for us, we only need to look back at the exodus from Egypt. He led His people through the Red Sea and provided leaders for them. His care for them points us to His care for us through Christ! The parting of the Red Sea and the salvation it provided prefigured the greater spiritual reality of God’s redemption of His people from slavery to sin through the work of Christ.

1 Corinthians 10:1-4 “Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea; and all ate the same spiritual food; and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.”
