“For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness” (v12). When the last terrible plague convinced Pharaoh to release the Israelites, they marched out into freedom in the wilderness. But when they realized the sea blocked their path and the army was pursuing them, they panicked, thinking that their previous slavery was better than death. However, Moses told the people to “go forward” (v15), because “the Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent” (v14).

“Fear not, stand firm” (v13). Sometimes when we step out in faith, we are confronted by immediate obstacles and even threats. The Lord calls us to remain steady, on course, confident in God’s strength, not our own.
