READ Exodus 14
The Lord parts the Red Sea for the children of Israel.
 
INSIGHT
When we are obedient to God, nothing can touch us that does not come from God Himself. The armies of Egypt, symbolic of the armies of Satan, are no match for a God jealous to care for His beloved people. Resting in God's full protection in spiritual warfare, we may put on His full armor and stand firm, knowing that we will triumph in Him.
 
PRAYER
Offer this psalm of praise to our forgiving God:
The Lord is righteous in all his ways
And faithful in all his acts.  
The Lord is near all who call out to him,
All who call out to him with integrity.  
He fulfills the desires of those who fear him;
He hears their cry for help and saves them.
My mouth will declare the Lord’s praise;
Let every living thing
Bless his holy name forever and ever
(Psalm 145:17-19, 21).
 
Now pray this confession to the Lord to keep your life free from sin and in fellowship with Him:
Out of the depths I call to you, Lord!  
Lord, listen to my voice;
Let your ears be attentive
To my cry for help.  
Lord, if you kept an account of iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?  
But with you there is forgiveness,
So that you may be revered (Psalm 130:1-4).
 
Voice your affirmation of God's Word:
Be strong, and let your heart be courageous,  
All you who put your hope in the Lord
(Psalm 31:24).
 
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice,
you righteous ones; shout for joy,
all you upright in heart (Psalm 32:11).
 
As you make your requests known to the Lord, pray for:

• Greater commitment to the Lord
• The hungry around the world
• Your prayer list

 
Now offer this prayer of worship to the Lord:
The Lord will send his faithful love by day;  
His song will be with me in the night —
A prayer to the God of my life (Psalm 42:8).
