Exodus 14:5-14 NLT
[5]When word reached the king of Egypt that the Israelites had fled, Pharaoh and his officials changed their minds. “What have we done, letting all those Israelite slaves get away?” they asked.
[6]So Pharaoh harnessed his chariot and called up his troops.
[7]He took with him 600 of Egypt’s best chariots, along with the rest of the chariots of Egypt, each with its commander.
[8]The lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, so he chased after the people of Israel, who had left with fists raised in defiance.
[9]The Egyptians chased after them with all the forces in Pharaoh’s army—all his horses and chariots, his charioteers, and his troops. The Egyptians caught up with the people of Israel as they were camped beside the shore near Pi-hahiroth, across from Baal-zephon.
[10]As Pharaoh approached, the people of Israel looked up and panicked when they saw the Egyptians overtaking them. They cried out to the lord,
[11]and they said to Moses, “Why did you bring us out here to die in the wilderness? Weren’t there enough graves for us in Egypt? What have you done to us? Why did you make us leave Egypt?
[12]Didn’t we tell you this would happen while we were still in Egypt? We said, ‘Leave us alone! Let us be slaves to the Egyptians. It’s better to be a slave in Egypt than a corpse in the wilderness!’”
[13]But Moses told the people, “Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today will never be seen again.
[14]The lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”
I am motivated by the last sentence in verse 14 of the above Biblw reference. Its kinda long a reading passage but that's the summary of what God did as he rescued the Israelite from the the hand of Pharoah who enslaved them for years.
Today and the remaining part of February and the year 2021 in general, God is admonishing us that he will be our guide. He will rescue us from anything that is enslaving us in Jesus name, amen.
